Last weekend, Stephen Fry, the voice behind the British version of the Harry Potter audio books, celebrated his 50th birthday and author JK Rowling, as well as some actors from the movies, participated in a televised celebration

Hugh Laurie was there a lot! I'm shocked to see that Rick Mayall was Peeves! Since when?! If you don't know who Rick Mayall is, watch Drop Dead Fred! He does have a perfect voice for Peeves. Maybe it he was featured in the video game. I never play that but if anyone has confirmation on these please let us know!

I don't know if it's just cause I haven't seen his picture in a while but he looks so different. I barely recognize him! But Happy birthday anywho.

I do hope that he a very "Harry" birthday! Hehe, I know I am not overly clever but hey, I enjoy my cleverness. :)
I want desperately to add the British versions to my collection. I hear Fry is brilliant!

Happy Birthday to Stephen Fry. It sounds like he had a wonderful birthday party. I was just wondering though, when has Peeves ever been a movie?

Happy belate birthday to him!
I've never heard his version of the audio books. But seeing as the library in town does not have his version I've been listening to Jim Dale's version lately.

He has a certain touch in the audio version of the books, that adds some kind of unexpected humor.

Hmm, Stephen Fry... never heard about him! Ahh, okay, now I know that there's another voice-guy for Harry Potter. I thought it was just Jim Dale! Well, now I know - I can't believe I didn't know this! Hehe, well, none of the young stars - too young maybe?
