'Exhausted' readers shun celebrity memoirs

Readers have grown tired of the slew of celebrity memoirs, with titles by Stephen Fry, Graham Norton and John Cleese selling disappointing numbers, according to publishing industry experts.

Radio Times review

As you would expect, Stephen Fry inhabits a different world from ordinary folk. So when Alan Davies tells him a preposterous nickname for the staff at Argos, he believes him. Let's assume he doesn't shop there. He's equally naive when it's suggested that the Earl of Sandwich is now appearing on Gogglebox. "Is he?" he asks politely and only slightly incredulously.

Among the musings on love handles, peshwari naans and composers, Fry's hilarious demonstration of how to make a lava lamp reminds David Mitchell of dreadful chemistry lessons. "Sir! I did what Alan said to do," he whines, waving his hand in the air. "And now I'm scared!"

Radio Times review

A sparkly, disposable bauble that reunites 24: Live Another Day co-stars Stephen Fry and Kiefer Sutherland, but in roles that could hardly be more different. Sutherland is a suburban dad and husband who's not very good at either. With Christmas coming, red bills are piling up and his failure as head of his family is about to be revealed. He needs money. The guy next door (Kevin McNally) is a pathetically seething cuckold who has money, and wants a nasty favour in return...

Fry is the magic element in a half-hour caper with a whiff of It's a Wonderful Life. Don't invest too heavily, but the crispness of Fry and Sutherland's long scene together - and the now-rare chance to see Fry flex his comic acting muscles - makes up for the tale not amounting to much.
