Fry stays up nights fretting about disappointing his grandfather.
Question: What keeps you up at night?
Stephen Fry: What keeps me up at night? My minds races with guilt at things I haven't done, things I've got to do. Things are always worse in the steady watches of the night aren't they? The things you think oh my God, I've got to do that, I've got to do that. Will I have time to do this? I better set my alarm for an hour earlier to do this. And also if I've... I don't know. You know and laziness. I still feel that I'm being watched you know by my grandfather or somebody who is shaking his head at me and going you know you let yourself down there.
