The Guardian reported compassionately, SF's words which were so poignant.
That he 'felt lonely in a crowd of people who are mostly very nice to me. Loneliness the most terrible and contradictory of my problems. I hate only having myself to come home to.'
He has battled Bipolar and attendant depression for years and is also quite open about his eating issues.
I think he is marvellous.

I'd certainly bat an eyelid at a 27 year old and 57 year old marrying, no matter what the sexes of those involved.

I'd climb over Calista Flockhart to get to Harrison Ford. He's Hans fucking Solo for Gods sake. And the Millenium Falcon trumps a Bentley any day.

I reckon SF and the fella from 1D that's not Harry, Niall, Zane or Liam were probably perfectly happy until it leaked to the papers. Now they've got long lenses poking every which way before they've had a chance to work on their "we're a couple" pose.

Harrison Ford is super hot in Witness. But he's the same age as my Dad, so sadly Harrison, you're off the list.

David Attenborough? RESLLY? Confused

In other sleb news did you see Anna Richardson is going out with Sue Perkins? I love Anna, I have hair and foundation envy.

Cocolepew · 08/01/2015 17:35

Reslly?

squoosh · 08/01/2015 17:38

I had to google Anna Richardson. I was thinking of Anna Ryder Richardson.

squoosh · 08/01/2015 17:39

Anna 'no I'm not Anna Ryder Richardson' Richardson has lovely shiny hair but a really annoying presenting style.

chasingtherainbow · 08/01/2015 17:41

I love Anna and she looks totally besotted.

Cocolepew · 08/01/2015 17:42

I spent years thinking Anna and Dawn Porter were the same person. I dont have hair envy for Dawn O'Helmet though.

Stephen fry seems a nice man. Hopefully he's met a nice man. I wish them all the very best in life.

Some really sour faced wotsits on this thread. Curdle milk at 20 paces.

TSSDNCOP · 08/01/2015 18:05

Shedding oh god was that flirting? DH and I thought HS came over as an abject twat and IM made him look about .

fuzzpig · 08/01/2015 18:06

I'm not against age gaps at all, DH and I have nearly 19 years between us and after 12 years are very loved up and happy.

So I'm annoyed at myself for balking at the picture posted above.

lyspaere · 08/01/2015 19:57

noddyholder he blocked you for asking a question that proves you were aware of (and a fan?) of his work!?

That's a bit mad Ted

I'd suggest that "fancying" someone you have only seen on tv is somewhat different to marrying them though, hmc.

Stephen Fry is a celebrity and somehow this appears to be clouding people's view of what else he is.

emeline · 08/01/2015 22:37

I fancy bill nighy too. Adorable seeming man.

JapaneseMargaret · 09/01/2015 09:48

I fancy Bill Nighy too, truth be told.

Pooseyfrumpture · 09/01/2015 10:36

Bill Nighy is hot Grin
Stephen Fry is overweight and badly kempt has not aged well. He's certainly not Harrison Ford the uncomplicated, swoony type. It's the disparity between them that makes me feel slightly uncomfortable.

LikeIcan · 09/01/2015 10:43

In the photos I've seen SF looks like his grandad let alone his dad lol - looking at them gives me the creeps I must say & I can't imagine the younger guy genuinely finds SF sexually attractive.

But I wish them well.

lyspaere · 09/01/2015 18:17

Bill Nighy was actually handsome when he was younger though.
