LAZY LAURIE'S STRIKE HOPES

HOUSE star HUGH LAURIE is quietly hoping for an actor's strike this summer (08), so he can take some time off.

Hugh Laurie at The 12th Annual Prism Awards held at the Beverly Hills Hotel. Beverly Hills, California - 24.04.08

The Brit confesses he is lazy and loved the three-month break the recent Writer's Guild strike afforded him.

Actor's union the SAG (Screen Actor's Guild) and studio bosses are currently negotiating to avoid a second bout of industrial action - and Laurie won't be too disappointed if the talks fail.

He jokes, "I am worried that there won't be an actor's strike? Of course not. (But) little tiny strike every now and again is good. I'm very lazy."

When asked what he did during the writer's strike, Laurie replied, "I did absolutely nothing. I was like a lizard on a rock. I struck a pose and held it for three months."
