He made his home in a villa on SUN the slopes of Lake Geneva in Switzerland, the place where he SUN endured the cold war against him, brought up his children, SUN found his peace and waited for America to realise what a SUN mistake it had made. He died there in 1977, and the evidence SUN of his life remains there too. His house stands empty SUN waiting to be turned into a museum of his life and art. SUN Stored carefully in a vault in the town below is the SUN extraordinary record of his genius, a hoard of letters, SUN home-movies, recordings, press-cuttings and unfinished SUN scripts.

MON MON 14:45 Book of the Week b00vjl1f (Listen) MON Stephen Fry - The Fry Chronicles, Episode 1 MON This is the intriguing, hilarious and utterly compelling MON story of how Stephen Fry arrived at Cambridge on probation: MON a convicted fraudster and thief, an addict, liar, fantasist MON and failed suicide, convinced that at any moment he would be MON found out and flung away. MON Instead, university life offered him love, romance and the MON chance to stand on stage and entertain. He began his iconic MON relationship with Hugh Laurie, befriended Emma Thompson MON among a host of household names, and emerged as one of the MON most promising comic talents in the country. MON After leaving Cambridge Stephen began to make his presence MON felt as he took his first tentative steps in the world of MON television, journalism, radio, theatre and film. Shameful MON tales of sugar, shag and champagne jostle with insights into MON credit cards, classic cars and conspicuous consumption, MON Blackadder, Broadway and the BBC. MON For all its trademark wit and verbal brilliance, The Fry MON Chronicles is a book that is not afraid to confront the MON aching chasm that separates public image from private MON feeling.

THU Beachcomber receives word from Paris that the gregarious THU toff has lost his heart - and most of his valuables - to a THU bewitching femme fatale... THU In 1924 the writer J.B. Morton adopted the name THU 'Beachcomber' and began a humorous column in the Daily THU Express which was to run for over 50 years. Reading about THU the odd lives of Beachcomber's characters - whether they THU were nonsensical, puritanical, pompous or simply insane - THU became part of the ritual of breakfast throughout the land. THU A typical example of Beachcomber's gift for creating what THU G.K. Chesterton described as "a huge thunderous wind of THU elemental and essential laughter," is Mr Thake. THU Out of print since the 1930s, The Adventures of Mr Thake is THU a collection of letters to Beachcomber, sent home from the THU calamitous travels abroad of a gentleman of considerably THU more leisure than sense. Oswald Bletisloe Hattersley Thake THU is, to be blunt, an upper-class twit. THU Described affectionately as "a caricature of his nation" THU here we have the fascinating spectacle of a Wooster with no THU Jeeves to rescue him. Whether he is losing his heart to THU young gold diggers on board the S.S. Lutetia while losing THU his hat overboard and wondering whether to stop the ship, or THU being fleeced in the nightclubs of Paris, Thake never quite THU understands what is happening to him - or why...
