Apparently, playing a doctor who walks and talks is dangerous stuff, according to Hugh Laurie, and thanks to him we now know that pretending to be a gimp on TV could actually turn you into one.
Hugh Laurie, according to the UK’s Ok! Magazine, is considering quitting his starring role on HOUSE – because his pretend limp in the U.S. show is giving him a real-life injury.
The British star plays a grumpy medical genius in the series and the character uses a cane to walk.
But the fake limp has caused Laurie some real problems – and he wouldn’t rule out leaving the show in a bid to regain full health.
He says, “The show might last through to series seven, eight or nine but I don’t know if I will because I’m starting to lose my knees. It’s a lot of hip work. There are things going badly wrong. I need to do yoga.”
