DAMIAN LEWIS - LEWIS LAUNCHES ATTACK ON LAURIE
DAMIAN LEWIS has launched a scathing attack on fellow British actor HUGH LAURIE - insisting he's not the only Brit to find success in the U.S.
Lewis - who starred in 2001 war series Band of Brothers - is amazed by the amount of publicity the House star has garnered since the medical show began in 2004, because he believes Laurie isn't alone in carving out a career in Hollywood.
He says, "English actors have been successful on U.S. TV for years. Hugh is not the first to be successful in LA and he will certainly not be the last."

How exactly is Damian Lewis's one sentence inocuous statement a 'scathing attack'
on Hugh Laurie? He's just stating fact. US television audiences have always had our
favorite British actors and actresses and always will. Hugh Laurie is our current
favorite. He's smart and funny and very likeable. We like Damian Lewis too. So what? I doubt
that Mr. Lewis meant to be offensive. The media is just blowing this way out of proportion.

Damian Lewis and Hugh Laurie are friends. In fact Lewis and his wife Helen McCrory
recently purchased Laurie's London home. It was Laurie that Lewis called for advice
when he was offered the role of Detective Charlie Crews in NBC's LIFE. This is just
another case of the tabloid media taking a comment out of context and trying to make
it into something else. Don't be taken in; it's just nonsense.
