Although I don't really watch the series regularly, I remember this one: It's Dr House, isn't it?!

Re: Guess the quote
Oooooh, I didn't know about the heavy-metal connection...
I meant Churchill, of course!
Well done, Keswick, your turn!

Re: Guess the quote
He is American, and I am afraid he is dead. He was quite a famous comedian, known for a film where he dresses up as a nanny. Does this ring a bell ?
