I knew Stephen Fry only from listening to audio books read by him. Sherlock Holmes was my first one. I liked his voice but for a pretty long time I had no idea that he was known for more than reading audio books. Jeeves and Wooster stuff kept on showing up on my tumblr dash from time to time and I always found that valet guy very nice to look at. One day he was so attractive in a GIF that I decided to look up that show. I watched the first episode on YouTube, quickly fell for Jeeves and bought the DVDs. It was funny to find out that he was played by Stephen Fry. Then I looked up Stephen Fry and crushed on him. I started reading fanfic and the books, have read most of the books by now and here I am.
By the way I remember being confused when I read the first Wodehouse style Jeeves fic without having read a Jeeves book before. Not having been familiar with Bertie's way of telling the stories, I had difficulties understanding what POV the fic was told from because there was "I" and "the young master" and Jeeves. So who was "I"? XD
