Fry breaks arm while filming for show
Stephen Fry has broken his arm while filming a new BBC Two series in Brazil.

The presenter was fronting wildlife documentary Last Chance To See, which focuses on endangered species, when he fell over and suffered the injury.

Fry was treated at a local hospital before being flown to the US for further treatment.

A BBC spokesman said: "Unfortunately, Stephen has broken his right arm after slipping while filming in Brazil for a new BBC Two series. He will have further treatment and hopes to be recovered to continue filming later in the year."
