Stephen has been entertaining international audiences for decades with his roles in Blackadder, A Bit of Fry and Laurie, Jeeves and Wooster and in films such as Wilde and Gosford Park. Stephen also hosted QI for twelve years and since 2017, his mythological retellings – including Mythos, Heroes and Troy – have become an international phenomenon.
