Discworld Convention 2012 Launched

I remember someone teasing Fry once about not knowing the HP story, he replied that he just read them, he didn't actually take any of it in. So not a fan then

Interesting that the episode of QI with him and Daniel Radcliffe in, neither of them knew the rules of Quidditch

It's like Galaxy Quest - the fans know more than the actors.

And maybe Fry isn't a fan of HP, but perhaps he likes JK.

That's very similar to an episode of "Never mind the Buzzcocks" with David Tennant and Catherine Tate. Catherine Tate knew nothing about Dr. Who, including details of the monsters who appeared in her episodes.

I see Pooh is still on the list (A182) and he said he isn't going to make it as he cannot come all the way to the the UK twice in one year.

Tell him I said not to be so bloody selfish and let them know his membership's up for grabs

Hah, my partner's parents are on the waiting list, I'm not sure if I want him to give up the membership or not... it would be the first time my parents and my other half's parents met.
