I love Hugh's "I'm not sure how I ended up on a stage with this man, but by God I'm going to be agreeable about it" character.

I'm pretty sure Stephen Fry had to be hypnotized to sing. If I'm remembering his memoirs correctly...

Oh, was that this sketch? I remember the incident in the book.

I think so. I think the times Stephen Fry has sung on camera can be counted on one hand. Possibly one finger of one hand.

There's also this, which is one of my favourite videos with Stephen Fry in it in the world. I just really like how being with Robert Lindsay seems to help - I suppose in the same way that with stuff like this post and BOFL in general he seems happiest (and for my money by far most interesting/entertaining) when he's with his Footlights etc folks.

(If that doesn't come through then the video's called "Stephen Fry singing on Parkinson" on YouTube.)
