Title - Extra Norfolk

Your questions answered: Stephen Fry

<<<read the previous questions

You are seen by many as an ideal dinner party guest, but which people (historical or contemporary) would you like to invite to a dinner party and why?
David Rayner, Norfolk

Stephen Fry: Oscar Wilde, obviously really, for wit and charm. Queen Elizabeth I too - a very witty and extraordinary woman.



Can you remember reading any particular book as a child that had a profound influence on your view of life, the universe, etc?
Amanda Williams

Stephen Fry: CS Lewis' Screwtape Letters. A mixture of wit, insight and brilliance of the kind you rarely meet.



Your lack of enthusiasm for participating in sport at school is well-known. If you could invent a sport that even you would have enjoyed taking part in, what would it be?
Helen Simmons, Norfolk

Stephen Fry: If there were a mixture of cricket, poker and snooker that would be it, I reckon. Hard to imagine but I wish someone would invent it!


You have a great command of language, but which are your least favourite words and why?
Rebecca Hobbs, Derby

Stephen Fry: 'Hopefully' and 'disinterested' are nearly always used wrongly and, although it's silly to be pedantic, it annoys me. But the worst is 'energy' when used in a meaningless, new-age sort of way, as in 'positve energy' and all that arse-wallop.


If you were to appear in Star Wars would you like to be on the dark side of the force, the goody-goody Luke Skywalker side or would a whole new side have to be invented?
Ffion Rogers, North Wales

Stephen Fry: Definitely the dark side. Better lines, better costumes, better music and better opportunities to show off. Just what an actor likes best really.
