Stephen Fry

TV review: The Undiscovered Peter Cook, BBC4

It's the kind of scoop every journalist/documentarist dreams of. Getting access to hitherto unseen archives of someone dead and famous. And that is exactly what Victor Lewis-Smith landed when Peter Cook's widow Lin allowed him to rummage through Cook's personal possessions in his Hampstead mews home that hadn't been touched since his death in 1995. The results have been painstakingly cherry picked and put together to produce this fascinating doc on a man who has already had umpteen fascinating docs made about him.

Stephen Fry to host Baftas again

Stephen Fry is to host the Baftas again, despite quitting Twitter after his quip at this year's event about costume design winner Jenny Beavan.

With the Elders in exile and hiding out in Debbie's loft - some of them, like Vice-Elder Flowers, conducting their exile fully nude - Stephen Fry's Cuddly Dick begins the smear offensive, painting Debbie as corrupt and causing a backlash against her in Yonderland. Elsewhere, there's a pretty hapless, Batman-esque vigilante in town - The Bird - followed around by his unwanted but far more effective sidekick The Bee, while Debbie seizes a chance to clear her name.

Forget Stephen Fry - Sandi Toksvig has made QI sing

Toksvig holds her own as the sharp, no-nonsense new QI host, cutting through the show's smugness and blowing away the cobwebs of Fry's tenure

Yonderland series 3 episode 2 review: Elders 11

Yonderland delivers one of its best episode so far with a full-on heist movie genre homage...

The 14th series of the knowingly esoteric quiz has reached the letter N which, for this opening episode, should probably stand for "new host". Sandi Toksvig takes over in the big chair and - considering how Stephen Fry's bluff smartypants approach helped define QI - the transition is remarkably seamless. Panellists Romesh Ranganathan, Cariad Lloyd, Phill Jupitus and original fixture Alan Davies are effortlessly steered and/or needled as required.

Sandi Toksvig on QI, Stephen Fry, and her open wedding

Playwright, novelist, budding politician, handywoman and now QI quizmistress - is there nothing Sandi Toksvig can't do?

QI is in the safest of hands

The trouble is, if pushed, I would say - and this is not sacrilege, bear with me - that in recent series, even under Fry's tutelage, QI has gone very slightly off the boil, as long-running panel games will. A slight shake-up to the format might be just what it needs.

QI: Toksvig triumphs in her first appearance as host

Does the series have a future with Toksvig as host? Indubitably - a word we probably first heard used in a sentence on QI.
