Always sad when someone goes, especially a character.

But from my hazy memory he was a bit of a twat.

RIP. The erudite Mr Fry said it all:

Goodbye, Christopher Hitchens. You were envied, feared, adored, reviled and loved. Never ignored. Never bested. A great and marvellous man

Hardly a great intellect. More a mildly contentious journalist.

Speaking of twats, I think Mr. Fry is a prime example of form over substance

+1 Whoever appointed him official national treasure and go-to brainy bloke can flip off.

T**ts can be entertaining though - look at Clarkson, Hitchens' brother etc.
