Hugh Laurie caused a stir among fellow diners at the Ivy in London this week when he arrived sporting the painful looking bruise.
His injury is thought to have been caused by a right hook from a gym sparring partner back in LA.
But Laurie refused to confirm that yesterday. When asked to offer an alternative explanation, he told the Mail:
'I walked into a door', adding: 'No, I mean I got hit by an owl'.
