Stephen Fry in America is a six-part BBC television series in which Stephen Fry travels across the United States. In the six-part series he travels, mainly in a London cab, through all 50 of the U.S. states and Washington, D.C.
The episodes are regularly repeated in the UK on Dave. It was aired in the United States on HDNet. In Australia, the program screened on ABC1.[1] The ratings were so successful that the broadcaster decided to finally air Fry's other BBC programme, QI the next month.[2]
The series was filmed in two segments, the first in October–November 2007, and the second in February–April 2008. Special guests featured on the show include Sting, Jimmy Wales, Morgan Freeman, Buddy Guy, and Ted Turner.
