Sky Showbiz - Golden Globe TV Noms

Hugh Laurie, nominated for best actor in a drama series for his role in Fox's "House," said he was "thrilled to bits" to be nominated. "Couldn't be more delighted. I am already planning to arouse comment, perhaps even scandal, with my choice of bow tie," the British actor joked. He indicated that he was a bit speechless but might look to fellow nominee Kiefer Sutherland, up for his role in Fox's "24," for inspiration. "Oh heck, I don't know. What's a chap supposed to say? Let's find out what Kiefer says and try and say it just before him."
