Stephen Fry to Address Antisemitism in Channel 4's Alternative Christmas Message

Fry, who is Jewish, will highlight the rise in antisemitic incidents in the UK and call for solidarity in the face of hate.

Stephen Fry is set to deliver Channel 4's Alternative Christmas Message, addressing the rise in antisemitism in the UK and calling for solidarity.
Fry, who is Jewish, will highlight the increase in antisemitic incidents in London since October 7, including smashed shop windows, defaced Jewish properties, and forced closures of Jewish schools.
He will also discuss his personal experiences with his Jewish identity and sexuality, and how societal acceptance has changed over his lifetime.
Fry's message will air on Christmas Day, shortly after the official royal message.
The Alternative Christmas Message, first aired in 1993, serves as a counterpoint to the monarch's annual televised address, focusing on the year's events.
