Two of Britain's best-loved contemporary comedians, Stephen Fry and Hugh Laurie, read the amusing nineteenth-century stories, anecdotes and fables found in "Letters from My Windmill" by Alphonse Daudet and "Idle Thoughts of an Idle Fellow" by Jerome K. Jerome. Stephen Fry and Hugh Laurie are famous for their comic talents and numerous television and film appearances, both together in shows such as "Jeeves and Wooster", "Blackadder" and "A Bit of Fry and Laurie", and later separately in shows such as "QI" and "House".
