Here’s a recent commercial in Spanish that Hugh Laurie did for Shweppes beverages. I am at a severe disadvantage because the language I have studied in my past was not Spanish! But I did make out the word “sexy”, and I completely agree that Hugh does look it in this commercial. What do you think?
And if anyone who is not so Spanish-language-challenged as I am wants to email me the traslation, I will post it here for you! ;-)

Is it Hugh talking spanish for real or just a translation??
Hi, I’m spanish and the translation from Exme is quite right.
However, “tonica” is not beer. It’s tonic, the same we use in the gin tonic drink :)
:o Whoa. I think this is one of the first times I’ve seen Hugh shaved…and still SEXY AS EVER!
*squees for new episode tonight*
Oh and even though I did learn Spanish, I cant make much sense out of this one… although lets be frank does it REALLY matter? :)
I’m from Mexico, and, this is from Spain, so, i’m not sure, but I Guess Tónica is a Beer. In Mexico is ”cerveza”
And “te pega” has no translate in Spanish from Mexico.
This is my not-so-good translation.. Sorry, but it gives you an idea.
Tónica Schweppes and Hugh Laurie
Hugh- How do you know I want a Tónica Schweppes?
Bar girl- Because.. it fits you
Hugh- It fits me?
Girl – It fits you, because, in the beginning you’re not easy, hmmm, but it worth to insist.
Hugh- We insist in your house or in mine?
..Tónica Schweppes, A bitter dot is sexy.
This is in spanish.
Tónica Schweppes y Hugh Laurie
Como sabes que quería una tonica Schweppes?
Porque.. te pega
Me pega?
Te pega..porque al principio no eres fácil, hmm, pero vale la pena insistir.
Insistimos en tu casa o en la mia?
Tónica Schweppes,
Un punto amargo, es Sexy.
Oh my god! I’m feelin’ horny! Is that because of Hugh or because of Hugh? I think it’s because of Hugh! ^^
Hi, I’ve emailed to you teh spanish to english translation ^g^
thanks.
I speak Spanish. Do you want me to translate the video?
Hi!
It says:
Hugh: How did you know I wanted a Tonica Shweppes?
Bartender: Because it strikes you
Hugh: It strikes me?
Girl: It strikes you because at the beginning you’re not easy but it is worth to insist
Hugh: Do we insist on you’re house or mine?
VO:Tónica Shweppes
Hugh: A sour point is sexy
I love how he says “So, at your place or mine?” XD At least… that’s what I THINK he said. *FAIL*
