markgatisssexualfrustration:

I always think of Mark Gatiss as something of a successor to Oscar Wilde: He’s charming and trenchant all at once; sentimental whilst witty; an absolute master of ideas as well as affect; and he gives me the sense that he’s only humouring the stupidity in the world and could use his massive intellect to crush us all like bugs at any time. (Plus, I love both Gatiss and Wilde dearly and want them to be my best friends.)

So when I heard Mr Gatiss on this episode of Desert Island Discs, I was thrilled. Behold:

[Ian and I] were married three years ago in Middle Temple. And by total coincidence, in the room you do the ceremony in, we were underneath a portrait of Sir Edward Carson, the man who prosecuted Oscar Wilde. So I flicked the V’s to him during the ceremony.

I cannot stress this enough: Mr Gatiss is BAMFy enough to take time out of his wedding to stand up for Oscar Wilde.

I hope someday to begin to approach the level of awesomeness that Mark Gatiss has achieved.

    YES ALL OF THIS. I loved his Desert Island Discs, and that wedding anecdote made me so happy and proud and… yes.
