Stephen Fry has the best public speaking voice of any one I know.
I paid actual cash money to download, from iTunes, his reading of “The Hitchhikers Guide To The Galaxy” (All five hours) and his new podcast series “The Dongle of Donald Trefusis”.
I am sure you would love his podcast series, free on iTunes, on the English Language, “Call me for a quotation” “Cliches” and “HMS Metaphor”.
I have also requested a copy of his book “Liar” from my Library.
I am one of his 707,014 followers on Twitter.

Rain – when the banality exceeds the informative or humerous.
By a factor of about 10 to 1 – if i know human nature. in other words one would not be holding one’s breath! 😉
Ed – Et Tu Brutus? Mr Fry does indeed have a melodious vocal capacity, considerable intelligence and a certain ‘charm’.
There’s also something about him i find a little distasteful but i can’t define what exactly?
i don’t subscribe to iTunes ( not being an Apple fan) and my pc has been programmed to make running any Apple software as difficult as possible – without actually doing anything illegal by Mr Gates and his well paid team of ‘experts’.
i will look out for the podcasts series you mentioned however as i’m sure you are right about them.
J-R – ‘status update’? you lost me – in non-twitter ( non-faceboook?) terms.that would be..??
i think Mr Fry likes to show his sense of the absurd at times: Lord of Dance, Prince of Swimwear, etc.
Being British he is able ( compelled by ancestry) to laugh at himself. 😉

Stephen Fry speaks with a very British upper class accent. I am sure some find that irriating.
He did a very funny podcast about how much he disliked dancing, hence his sarcasms at refering to himself as “Lord of the Dance.”
