Stephen Fry

Stephen Fry (born 24th August 1957) is an English actor and author who voiced the Minister of Chance in Death Comes to Time.

Fry also wrote the initial script for episode 11 of series 2 of the revived Doctor Who. Believing the script to be too complex however, Russell T Davies decided it would be better suited for season three, giving the crew more time for preparation. The script was replaced with Fear Her, and as of yet, has not been made.

In June 2010, Fry stirred controversy in Who fandom in a speech in which he described programmes such as Doctor Who as "wonderfully written" but "not for adults". Steven Moffatt responded by saying the show was "was designed specifically to be a family programme, that's what it's for."

Fry is a well-known TV and film personality and writer in the UK. Among his credits are Fry and Laurie and the Richard Curtis-written Blackadder series (the latter alongside Rowan Atkinson and both featuring a pre-House Hugh Laurie), and Whose Line is it Anyway. He also appeared in the 2007 revival of St. Trinians and narrated the 2005 film version of Douglas Adams' The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. Most recently, he voiced the Cheshire Cat in Tim Burton's update of Alice in Wonderland.
