It's easy to understand why Hugh revered his father so much. I would also be interested in the entire article, if that's okay?

However, to re-publish the whole piece, I would need both Mr. Laurie’s and "The Sunday Telegraph’s" permission. I will post the beginning of the article, and if you are terribly interested in the entire thing, I would be happy to take a copy and send it to you by snail mail.
