I absolutely loved Wind in The Willows! Agree Mark was perfect as Ratty. A wonderful performance! I loved his whiskers/moustache. So cute!

The rest of the cast were great too. Particularly the guy who played Mole. Bless...

Weren't the costumes fab? Especially Toad's. Just like the book

Just discovered this as BBC Four unveiled its programme highlights for Winter/Spring schedules...

Mark has made a documentary starring himself and some penguins

Its called 'The Worst Journey in the World' & features Mark in search of penguin eggs.

Where does he find the time to do all these things? Does he have a double?

Here's some blurb:-

BBC Four's Edwardian season also looks back to the time when, prior to Captain Scott's fateful journey to Antarctica in 1912, Scott and his men spent two years conducting scientific experiments in that harsh environment.

One such task saw three men set forth in the snow, facing the harshest of conditions and risking their lives and their sanity - all for a penguin egg.

In The Worst Journey In The World, Mark Gatiss tells this often overlooked story of epic endurance."

Knew there'd be some Edwardian/Victorian connection in there somewhere

Oh my god, really?
How fantastic.

Mark AND penguins!!



You're right. How *does* he find the time?

Hehe, Mark and Mumble in the same programme...

Oh my god, I can't believe no one has mentioned Mark on Charlie Brooker's 2006 review (repeated last night)

I have it on SKY! I can make a DVD tomorrow and screen cap it.

Yes to screen shots

I saw it too - it was on just after The League of Gentlemen S1 repeat on BBC4. Mark talked about the late Nigel Kneale - it was excellent.

The ginger hair of smex! The orange tshirt of smex! The jumper of smex!



Just casually showing off his new ring of smex

Ach no - haven't you heard? Sarah's given up her claim to Mark! She no longer fancies him! So he's mine, all mine! MWAHAHAHAHA!

I like him in orange!

It definitely goes with his redhead look. Mmmmmmmmmmmarrrrk.

She'll be back........................ won't she? *does scared face* But... but.. it's MARK, she loves him really, just man getting slightly in the way.... she'll come back to Teh Gatiss.

Ginger Mark is good.... maybe he can grow longer and bushier sideburns? Maybe spend more time in the kitchen... he'd need to wear an apron if he's cooking.... it's quite sunny isn't it? maybe a straw hat?

Tee hee. Indeedy. With each passing year Mark is turning into Hillary Briss.

*drools*

Awww it will come back at some stage.
