hArVeY wAlLbAnGeR?! @dalec - Tumblr Blog

I am beginning to understand why some people have an aversion to Tumblr. I have been rooting around in history (3 or 4 years ago, of all things, but it seems ages) trying to figure out old references and track back broken links. Seeing what’s happened to the wonderful resource that @enigmaticpenguinofdeath used to provide that now is unaccessible unless you simply walk back over time… no wonder people are frustrated. Friendly-seeming people who are no longer around… discussions of groups that seem to no longer exist… in-jokes that made sense at the time… it doesn’t take much to scatter people, it seems.

I just want some place to talk Mystrade with friendly people. Now I’ve made myself sad, and a bit paranoid. Probably means it’s time for a glass of water and sleep. I hope I don’t regret rambling in the morning.

teenlock au where sherlock asks john to help him practice for a date with vic trev by going on a practice date together except there is no vic trev and sherlock just wants to go on a date with john 💘 meanwhile john is outrageously jealous

wellthengameover

john jealously asks sherlock to describe vic trev and sherlock’s like “shit didn’t think thru this part of the lie v well” so he just blatantly describes john and john gets jealous of himself

john *glaring with gritted teeth*: so what is this … “victor trevor” like?

sherlock: ummm he’s… blond! and he wants to go to medical school and he’s got these amazing blue eyes and he’s really brave and his jumpers look really soft like maybe if he was cuddling with me and

David Tennant and Mark Gatiss - a photoset

These two met and bonded over their mutual love for Doctor Who, and they worked together numerous times down through the years before finally working together on the show that had cemented their friendship (both on “The Idiot’s Lantern”, an episode Mark wrote, and on “The Lazarus Experiment”, an episode that Mark guest-starred in). Mark was one of the first people David told after getting the role of the Tenth Doctor.

I love fanboy friends.

Mark Gatiss from the Quatermass Documentary: At the end of rehearsal, we had mics in our hair and he (David) said, “We have to get de-mic’ed, I’ve got to tell you something.” I thought something had gone terribly wrong with the production… and he said, “Chris isn’t coming back to Doctor Who next year.” I said, “Oh God! Really?” He said, “Yeah, and they’ve asked me,” and it was like, “Oh my God!” As long as we’ve known each other we’ve talked about how we’d play the Doctor. It’s our dream come true, so it was extremely sweet. I think he was quite nervous about telling me somehow, as if I’d actually try to kill him and take his TARDIS off him.

Trivia: Mark wrote a part for his friend David in the episode “The Unquiet Dead”, but Russell T. Davies, who was working with David on Casanova and who already had David in mind for the Tenth Doctor, talked Mark into making the mortician character an older man so the part would no longer be appropriate for David — mainly because RTD didn’t want to use David in a small part if he was later going to be the Doctor.

I have it on good authority this is one of Mark’s super excited expressions. X

Anyone have other examples?

markgatiss-dreamydevil

I don't know if it's a good example, but I just love his expression on this gif so much ! 😁

lavenderandvanilla

He looks super excited to me! 😆

Here are 2 personal favorites because I was personally responsible for the super excitement. 😁

“Oh! It looks like time travel!”

Since I’ve had some asks and seen some wondering tags, if you see Mark looking all dapper and umbrella-wielding like this:

…then it’s from a documentary called “This Man is The One” on the DVD boxset “Adam Adamant Lives!”. The aforementioned TV series ran from 1966-1967 with Gerald Harper in the title role, as a Victorian ‘gentlemen adventurer’ who was frozen by his nemesis and woke up in the 1960s. Mark is (inevitably) a huge fan so hosted the documentary/interviews about the series for the DVDs. I stuck some clips from it up on YouTube a while back if you haven’t seen it before.

They’re also shooting for 100% renewable plastic sources by 2030! All of the soft plant/leaf elements in sets right now and going forward are made out of bioplastic made from sugarcane, and they’re working on getting the regular hard plastic bricks out of that, too.

lynnafred

They’ve done it, actually! The full bricks are in the prototype stage now, and are expected to be 100% biodegradable without the need for a commercial compost facility. It’s very cool. Right now they’re testing the durability and playability of the bricks and seeing what needs to be revised/reworked on their final model.
