One Minute With: Mrs Stephen Fry, Diarist

The Independent, 29th October 2010

I tried hard to resist The Fry Chronicles on Radio 4, the latest instalment from a man who has taken the Socratic idea about a life unexamined to heart. But it was of course perfectly pitched, intelligent, amusing and endearing. This week it was Stephen Fry's celibate years, in which an all-consuming passion for Apple Macintosh stood in for sex. It is amazing to hear that Fry lies awake reflecting on his lack of achievement. Where that leaves the rest of us just doesn't bear thinking.

Mrs Stephen Fry - a lady like no other!

Sometimes Twitter exposes a rare gem; a person we wouldn't have met under any other circumstances. This is certainly the case for Mrs Stephen Fry. Mrs Fry (or Edna as she's known to her friends) has been entertaining us for some time now with hilarious tweets about her life as down-trodden wife of Stephen Fry.

Maria Duffy, Hello Magazine, 26th October 2010

We've had to wait 13 years for the second volume of Stephen Fry's autobiography, but thankfully this latest memoir is just as self-deprecatory and likeable as Moab is My Washpot. Here we get episodes from Fry's time at Cambridge plus his years of professional success (or "career harlotry" as he describes it) during the 1980s. As you'd expect from this period in the performer's life, the anecdotes are incredibly name-droppy. But Fry treats himself with such savagery and, at times, borderline contempt, that the result is never smug or supercilious. Which isn't to say that he stints on the laughs - indeed a passage about the pleasures of Radio 4 and going on Loose Ends with Ned Sherrin should be enough to inspire you to seek out the unabridged version.
