It seems as if Stephen Fry has a small monopoly over our
television viewing here is Australia. If
he’s not hosting QI, then he’s travelling around the United States and telling
us about it, or popping up in all sorts of other television programs both
recent and repeated. Maybe it’s just me
noticing him more often, but somehow I feel that Stephen Fry has become a more than
regular face on our telly over the last few years. This observation even gets mentioned in a
recent television advertisement by The Chaser (Australian satirical comedian
group) even though he has nothing to do with the show. Yet despite his overexposure and dominance on
the idiot box, I tend to watch most things that he does (…not all of it). I don’t know why this is other than a vague
thought that if Stephen Fry is doing something on the telly, it’s probably
going to be interesting… or at least worth a go. I guess that’s why I picked this book
up. If I think the guy is of interest,
then surely others will as well.
