This is on tonight on ITV1 at 10:15 pm. I have copied some information from the ITV website incase anyone is interested.
Perspectives: Hugh Laurie - Down By the River
Perspectives, Episode 4
Hugh Laurie visits New Orleans to explore the roots of the sounds that have inspired his lifelong passion for music, in particular jazz and blues. Cameras follow Hugh's personal journey as he discovers a new and authentic interpretation of some of the great songs which have shaped generations of musicians and defined so much of American culture. Taking a close look at the city of New Orleans, the film captures behind the scenes moments as Hugh prepares to record his own versions of blues and jazz songs. There is also a special concert in Latrobes in the city's French Quarter, where for one night only Hugh and his band perform alongside contemporary legends like Allen Toussaint, Tom Jones and Irma Thomas.

Thanks for the info - I'll be watching now, but would almost certainly have missed it without your input. Cheers from West Yorkshire!

I've been watching 'Jeeves and Wooster' on TV. So that was Hugh Laurie actually playing the piano. I suppose the new show will make it down to Oz in a couple of years ...
