English actor, writer, and comedian Stephen Fry, who is perhaps as well-known for his leftist politics and atheism as he is for Blackadder or A Bit of Fry and Laurie, has run afoul of Ireland's 2009 blasphemy law.
Gardaí, the Irish Republic's police, are investigating Fry for allegedly mocking Christianity on Irish television. The investigation is a response to a viewer complaint.
