A lovely ride from the BBC to the QI studios beside the Thames in the company of the spectacularly clever Mr Stephen Fry.
Carpool Podcast on iTunes @ bit.ly/CarpooliTunes
ABOUT CARPOOL:
Carpool is an online show hosted by Robert Llewellyn (Red Dwarf, Scrapheap Challenge, Fully Charged), who gives a wide variety of passengers a lift in a hybrid or electric car and they talk. It's as simple as that. Previous guests include Stephen Fry, David Mitchell, Charlieissocoolike and Jim Jeffries.

I wish Robert had continued these. I do love Fully Charged but these are just so interesting. It's so good to see celebrities completely relaxed just talking like two mates down the pub. I also wonder if any of the other drivers in the traffic realised that Stephen Fry was sitting just feet from them. Also was really interesting to hear Robert getting excited about the upcoming Model S.

If he did that he would just be another "do you know who I am" guy, and would still need to present ID to get in.

He is best known for his portrayal of Kryten, in the BBC hit series 'Red Dwarf.' He also created Carpool, this show, in which Stephen Fry is one of his many passengers.

@batmanofni You are almost prescient. It is a medium low budget TV show in the UK, on 'Dave' which if you are outside the UK is a TV channel not some bloke I met. If you follow to the carpoolUK link you'll see the new shows are appearing once a week. I've now recorded over 100 shows and what ever happens, there'll be a new one every week until June.

@Dinnderladyman Okay, as 'the other guy' I would like to defend myself only in the fact that carpool is just the recording of a conversation, I could have given Stephen a lift and warned him, 'I'm not going to say anything or laugh, can you just do a 30 minute monologue. Of course Stephen could have done that, but it would have been a bit unfair on him.
