They are not where they are said to be, but they are on stephenfry.com somewhere. Two of them so far? It might be useful to have a search feature for the site. I'm used to seeing search functions for forums too, which might actually be easier to implement ( or in fact just turn on ) I would think, but there doesn't seem to be one. tudza on "No iTunes" http://www.stephenfry.com/forum/topic/no-itunes#post-269267 Sat, 23 Apr 2011 06:31:40 +0000 tudza 269267@http://www.stephenfry.com/forum/ The naming scheme on iTunes is a little odd. You get a separate folder for each of the three episodes and they are all named "01 The Dongle of Donald Trefusis_ Ep". tudza on "No iTunes" http://www.stephenfry.com/forum/topic/no-itunes#post-269263 Sat, 23 Apr 2011 06:22:13 +0000 tudza 269263@http://www.stephenfry.com/forum/ I would much prefer to give my money straight to stephenfry.com if that were possible. Second choice would be Amazon.com With iTunes I not only have to give money to Apple, but also have to install iTunes. "Please put this weasel in your pants. Go on, it's only a little one."

It's now April 2011 and no response! It's a pity your diplomatic and measured comments on this issue have been ignored. BGD on "More Dongle from Donald!" http://www.stephenfry.com/forum/topic/more-dongle-from-donald#post-268881 Fri, 15 Apr 2011 08:05:55 +0000 BGD 268881@http://www.stephenfry.com/forum/ I must confess I hadn't heard much about the 'Dongle' series, but chanced upon it on itunes a few weeks ago. I assumed the first three episodes were soon to be followed by a fourth, and then the rest. I paid for the downloads and listened to them, only to then discover that it has been over a year and a half since the last episode with no promise of a date for the fourth. You would be quite forgiven for thinking that it seems as though there may never be more releases. I can't help but feel a little betrayed by the whole thing. Especially when there are still trailers and downloadable wallpapers for the whole thing her on the website. I really enjoy Stephen's stuff and was keen to try something new, what a shame - not to say, if I can be blunt, <img src="http://www.stephenfry.com/bb-content/plugins//bb-smilies/default/icon_cry.gif" title=":cry:" class="bb_smilies" /> a waste of money. Why would you start releasing something if it wasn't all finished and ready to go? tobyc on "'Unfeasibly' - really?" http://www.stephenfry.com/forum/topic/unfeasibly-really#post-263085 Thu, 27 Jan 2011 10:37:34 +0000 tobyc 263085@http://www.stephenfry.com/forum/ I can remember the days (pre-Buster Gonad and his Unfeasibly Large Testicles) when the word was 'infeasible'. Just sayin'. crazy3dman on "No pics Pt2??!!

He recites the url as stephenfry.com/painting1 instead of stephenfry.com/dongle/painting1. Thanks for the giving us the correct url Andrew. <img src="http://www.stephenfry.com/bb-content/plugins//bb-smilies/default/icon_smile.gif" title=":-)" class="bb_smilies" /> mesem on "No pics Pt2??!!

I'm aware of Stephen's incredibly busy schedule but surely it's obvious that many of his followers have been waiting (whether patiently or impatiently!) for a ridiculously long time for the next installment. I hope you can at least tell us whether it's still on the cards or been abandoned indefinitely. Better late than never, in this case. michael on "Lost interest..." http://www.stephenfry.com/forum/topic/lost-interest/page/5#post-254171 Thu, 18 Nov 2010 23:54:20 +0000 michael 254171@http://www.stephenfry.com/forum/ <img src="http://media-cdn.tripadvisor.com/media/photo-s/01/07/bb/3d/female-lion-yawning.jpg"> . .

The facts are that Fry promised 10 episodes and delivered only 3. I (and many others) paid for what we got but we didn't hope for more, we were promised more. Fry is busy, we all are. But try telling your boss (if you are working) that you are working on other projects and don't have time to finish the one you are working´on, and see how much longer you last in your position. That, glossyIbis, is reason. And I am not inexplicably wronged. I am most definitely misled by Fry's team who advertised 10 episodes amidst great fanfare 18 months ago and have now pulled those same ads. In a truly Orwellian manner, no mention of TDODT exists on these pages save for two t-shirts in the merchandise section. glossyibis on "Lost interest..." http://www.stephenfry.com/forum/topic/lost-interest/page/5#post-254007 Wed, 17 Nov 2010 15:31:11 +0000 glossyibis 254007@http://www.stephenfry.com/forum/ <blockquote><cite>oojeyboojey <a href="//www.stephenfry.com/forum/topic/lost-interest/page/4#post-248519"">said</a>:</cite> Way I see it, you paid for something, you got it. You hoped for more, it didn't come. Shit happens. Fry's busy, he's got other projects. It's sad he didn't manage to finish this project off, but aside from annoying you, I don't think he's done anything wrong. At least there's always the possibility this one'll get finished one day. In the meantime complaining about it probably won't expedite it.</blockquote> At last, the voice of reason. No self-righteous bull puckey; just the facts. Thanks very much.
