Stephen Fry in America




Stephen Fry was very nearly an American. Just before Stephen was born, his father was offered a job at Princeton University, but chose to turn it down.
And so, Stephen was born in NW3 rather than in NJ, New Jersey.


In this six-part series Stephen travels, mostly in a London cab, through all 50 states of the country that he could have nearly called home and which has always fascinated him.

You can catch the episodes, for a limited time only, on iplayer.

Whilst in Vermont, Stephen was invited to the Ben and Jerrys factory and he was asked to create his own flavour.

He chose 'vanilla, with chocolate chunks and walnuts' - See video here
You can create your own flavour by visiting the Ben and Jerrys website.
