Yes, we Stephen Fry fans squeed loudly over that clock, but as most of us are females lamenting the fact that he plays exclusively for the other team, it was a little off-putting that all of the Voco messages addressed the sleeper as "Sir". A gay male in our circle, however, didn't hesitate to buy the clock and transcribe all of its messages:

Hah! I was just about to put in an obligatory disclaimer saying that people (like me and he) who obsessively transcribe are just big fans, not complete loonies . . . then I looked down and remembered whom I was talking to. My goodness, if anyone could sympathize . . . !
