Heh, I met Stephen Fry when he was the Rector of Dundee University, and I was the Exams Officer there. Made him laugh out loud I did, which I regard as one of my life's accomplishment's. It was at our graduation ceremony, just after his mad depressive escape to France when he kinda lost it for a while, and was his first public appearance after cooming out of hiding. I got to see the paparazzi in action first hand, plus Mr. Fry's alarmingly bleached-blond hair up close!

Shortly thereafter SF was re-elected as Rector for a second term (he was hugely popular with our students - and staff!), and gave us an awesome speech during his Rectorial Installation (try saying that after a few G&Ts!), during which he described Hugh Grant (who had recently been discovered in a rather embarrassing position with an American prostitute) as 'Huge Grunt'. Ah, good times, good times :-)
