All right, listen up, Americans*:

He's the one who's not that cranky doctor from the show with the cranky doctor in it. (Thank you, Tony!)

The remainder of that scene is at the beginning of this clip:

This one's a bit loud, you might want to turn down the volume... (but it comes with bonus John Sessions!)

He even narrates well-animated children's shows:

I knew Stephen Fry from V for Vendetta, but now I'm really interested in all of his other stuff.

I had to look up the cast for Gormenghast after that clip because I didn't remember him being in it, and did you know that Irma Prunesquallor is Aunt Petunia? (you probably did, but ... its weird to think about ..)

Yeah – Vernon Dursley, Madame Hooch, and Mr Weasley are also in the Gormenghast cast. I was amazed how often I saw Gormenghast people in other things until I learned that they had managed to gather an all-star cast for it, so I guess it was a pretty good introduction to British casting.
