Absolutely love this - I could listen to Mark talk all day. He's very interesting and obviously super smart but also warm and engaging too - his intelligence or fame doesn't make him full of himself
doesn't make him full of himself ? Are you kidding ? Hes all about money spinners.
@@degsbabe he was joking. Mark is one of the nicest funniest guys out there. You don't even know him personally
Mark is such a multi faceted individual and it's always a pleasure to hear him speak. Such a shame that the questions almost entirely focus on Sherlock and Dr Who. I'd love to have heard him talk about his adaptations of MR James and HG Wells and about his love of horror.
Ladies and Gentlemen, Mycroft Holmes is here.
No he's not. And he was only playing Mycroft because he cast himself.
No, it's Les McQueen
rob poynter McGann !
It's the queen
Listened to this for a second time as it's so good. Mark is becoming one of my favourite interviewees as he always has an interesting take on things
More of us than you know feel the same way you do, Mr Gatiss, about the current state of the world and, at least stateside, about what passes for politicians these days... It's a very fearsome time indeed. But I'd like to believe that there are more minds, more voices as intelligent and far reaching as your own, that will do everything they can to be the voice of reason. With their votes, with their creativity, with their humor. All gifts you have utilized yourself, to the fullest, I'm sure. That measure of a man, or woman, will always last, beyond whatever fresh hell is consuming the news media of the day. Best wishes in all things, and thank you for so much amazing entertainment.
Q: "Who in real life would you like to play next?"
A: "Theresa May. But I think it's too early for a remake of Nosferatu."
(big laugh) But truly, how ironic is that comment with the news we have now of Gatiss & Moffat's next original series? lol (if you haven't heard, they're going to do a new adaptation of Dracula for TV)
Gosh, I love this man.
he's a brilliant comedy actor and writer. the characters he played in the league of gentlemen were fucking hilarious!!
mr.mike Mr Chinnery 👍🏼
Still showing off his legs
Only just watched this for first time. How truly prophetic were Mark’s comments about his frightening expectations for the future of the world.
Amazing insight
37:07 I love that laugh!
H a h a h a h a
Always a pleasure to here Mark. Looking forward to the next hour! Thanks for uploading.
Love him so much

Both the last question and the last answer were perfect.
Watching this while writing my novel. Good Motivation Mark is will always come back to his stuff it i need a top up on the ol' motivation and inspiration metre.
Also Page 1 was easy, page 2 okay. Chapter 7 that's where I'm stuck.
For me he'll always always be Glenn from Nighty Night.
So nice of you.
Thank you.
I'm getting old. I understand all the references these middle-aged celebrities make, but the students react like the person is from another planet.
I just love him 😭😭😭 i wish i could see him
Would love to see Mark play the Dr.
Couldn't believe Gatiss was from the next town over!
He was great
It's Merk Goddess!
I love how that guy with the camera is slowly shuffling along the bench at 5:15! He probably thinking, "You can't see me....I must get a shot of these people in the front row because they're the most exciting thing going on right now..."
“Doctor who’s my favourite show”
Is this like favouritism, is this why Sherlock doesn’t get more seasons than the earth
Watch your language, Mickey love
AlexanDr Moskalenko English!
Mycroft holmes
Я без понятия, что он базарит, но это охуенно.
In regards to that question about who the Doctor, Mycroft, and Sherlock would vote for, I don't think Sherlock would even be aware or care that there was an election. I can't think of detailed examples right off the top of my head, but I'm fairly certain there were at least a couple a conversations he had over the course of the series in which he wasn't aware of who well known political figures were.
From Italy, good night
2020 here he’s predicted everything being shit lol
Is it possible to not love Mark Gatiss?
Just asking for a friend.
I never knew he was gay but always thought he was a little camp.
Ask them Calvin Coolidge's first name. See how many say John.
Wrong video. Sorry.
Does he talk about Sherlock? Which minute? I'm lazy
I wonder how much of the audience are screaming nightmare Tories...
if only he got the job on Who, we would still have a good franchise.......
Lousy questions. Nobody asked about his interest in the horror genre. What could he have done with the stories of Edgar Allan Poe for instance? It was all about the money spinning sherlock and doc who.
I thinks is nice speaking but too difficult for my simple english to follow what they say , BYe
Thanks , what is the argoment?I follow one part but really I don't understand
that opening joke did not age well at all
22:50 -- HUMAN. WHO could he be referring to ? Jeremy Corbyn by ANY chance ? Tooooooooooooooooo late now. Things can ONLY get...WOR$£ !!! The 4.49 video ''A Decade of the Tories'' by Jonathan Pie [from 1 weak before the 2019 Election]
Less than 1 min and we knew is gay... How people can be surprised? He always make allusion about his homosexuality XD
The writing of Sherlock towards the end was ludicrous bollocks
Agreed. Awful, just fucking awful
Ikr
Yes, but I think that doesn't take away from the brilliance in the first 3 series.
Ah, Yes, Actors . That's what Oxford is producing these days.
Pompous man
Lemon Sweets he is so not pompous at all! I think he's quite self effacing
Mycroft Holmes
Я без понятия, что он базарит, но это охуенно.
John Potatson привет чел я с тобой полностью согласен
