STEPHEN FRY GIVEN GRADE 1 LISTED STATUS



Much loved national treasure Stephen Fry has finally been granted Grade 1 listed staus by English heritage. This means that the tall twitterholic star has been deemed of special architectural, historical or cultural significance.

Witty Stephen is compelled to repair and maintain himself and can face criminal prosecution if he fails to adequately do so or if he performs unauthorised alterations such as a snazzy new haircut or a garish coat, not in keeping with his general "Oxford Professor" look. If alterations are permitted, Fry is compelled to use specific (and potentially expensive) materials or techniques. For this reason, the law allows Fry to object to his listing, but the raconteur was too busy snuggling up to an iPad to care.
