Living With Mark Gatiss

As some of you may know Mark Gatiss has been living with me in my flat for some time now, and I have to say I'm getting a bit sick of it.

He's there when I get back from work, he's on the sofa hogging the TV while I'm trying to eat my dinner and playing Cilla Black records while I'm trying to have a shit. Not to mention leaving piles of scripts for new TV projects everywhere.

HANG ON, what am I talking about? I DON'T LIVE WITH MARK GATISS! It just feels like I do. It's just that the willowy ginger mediocrity is on my TV all the time and over-exposed in the media generally.

What a relief. So who's been wearing my socks?

I've only seen him on two things...

Mark Gatiss is great, and the three most recent things I've seen of his, the Horror Doc, the Moon thing, and Sherlock have all been top notch.

Even if he was half as good as you or anyone else thought he was he'd still be over-exposed.

And he isn't half as good.

I find him rather charming. Other than the three things Matt's mentioned what else has he been in lately?

He's briliant, Godot.
Sometimes I do wonder about you.

I think the TV schedule is a little light on the Gatiss.

Psychoville?

Psychoville?

Indeed. Not as a main character though.

Doctor Who Confidential?

I like him, I don't think he's overused currently.

Overexposed is Cheryl Cole, Wayne Rooney and Russel Brand. You're on your tod on this one, Godot!

Yeah, seems like. I'm f**king sick off him. He really ballsed up the Worst Journey in World.

He's on the radio a lot too, but then he does have a jolly nice voice - very listenable.

:D

I like him! I don't think I've seen too much of him. Maybe Godot is subconsciously stalking him! :)

Probably just incensed by his current oddly ginger beard.
