An MCC member has been suspended after making "factually incorrect" accusations against current President Stephen Fry.
The world famous actor and writer succeeded Clare Connor in the role in May last year, having long established a reputation as a fanatical cricket follower. But he was the subject of accusations following a club dinner in February, with a fellow member submitting a complaint over his alleged offensive behaviour.
Chris Waterman, 75, claimed the 65-year-old, who delivered a speech at the event, had opened up his address by saying: "I had intended to say 'Good evening, ladies and gentlemen' but there are no lady members present. I suppose they are off s***ging'."
