...I think Stephen's done the right thing for him, I was watching him talk about his manic depression the other day and others like Robin Williams who sadly also suffered the same ...the internet is becoming far too 'important' in terms of effecting others lives and some people feeling as though they have to relay their negativity and judgement and general spitefulness and in some cases, real hate onto others..those little keyboard warriors...he doesn't need that in his life, he doesn't need to feel negative internet judgement for something that wasn't meant with anything negative, but was said in joking and with affection...don't get involved with the silliness Steven, don't let it rain it's doom cloud over you and your life, just walk away and let the idiots get on with it...

...it sometimes seems to me with things like Twitter, that if you don't become yourself the very thing that these negative little armchair warriors are themselves, then you're a bit of a 'let down'...not giving the good drama filled performance of an internet 'slagging match'.../thank goodness not Stephen getting involved in such the like...

I agree Jenny. The internet is a wonderful invention, but it also gives an international platform for obnoxious cowards to spew out their toxic bile without recrimination, when really, they would otherwise remain voiceless and with no room for any audience under the cramped confines of their 'hidey holes' beneath those slimy stones.

Fry is a GENIUS - a tormented genius - but a genius nonetheless, and he is bigger than these bullying, baying cowards.
