Actor Hugh Laurie, star of US hospital drama House, has been made an OBE by the Queen. And once again I ask myself why?

They are given out to every Tom, Dick and Harry.

But it's not as if Hugh Laurie is a nobody. He's had a successful career in TV and film for 25 years.

Yes, I agre with Smurfy. He and Stephen Fry achieved complete hero status in my eyes with their portrayal of Jeeves and Wooster. I have the whole lot on DVD.

Do you agree with OBE's?

I don't even know why they're given out so I can't say really.

They seem to be a waste of time and money to me, but then if I knew what they were for I might have a different point of view.

I can't see where the problem is. What do you need explaining?
