Totty of the Day

The very lovely out-gay actor Russell Tovey, who began his career on stage as one of The History Boys and went on to become a familar face on our screens (both sides of the pond) in shows such as Being Human, Him & Her, Looking and Years & Years, is 40 years old today!

I'd help him blow out that candle...

  4. I, too, just love his jug handle ears. I'm sure I'm not the first to imagine them as grips.

    1. I'm sure they have been used as such on many an occasion. Jx

  5. Also I just remembered, he was in some lame action/drama/soap opera tripe about the lives and loves of a bunch of rookie FBI trainees. I had had just about enough of the pilot when Russell popped up in nothing but a towel and his manly beefiness. Suddenly my interest was fresh as the dawn.

    1. I think Russell Tovey in just a towel would improve most films/TV dramas! Jx

  6. Me, I noticed that he has 'musicians thumbs''. The kind of thumb that bends back in a curve. Otherwise known as (when well manicured) Every Girls' Dream. What a pity he bats for the other team!

  7. Seems like a very nice young man.

  8. Tsk. You missed an opportunity to slap a pic up of him with his co-star from Being Human. Ahem.

  9. "...shirtless in bed with his back to the camera" is how the Daily Mail described an infinitely-suggestive pic Tovey's brutal-rugby-coach partner shot of him a few years back, a dreamy shot that should leave no question about the, ahem! dynamic between the two of them.

    And I will scratch and bay and claw at the turf for the remainder of my miserable existence, cursing my fate, to share the earth with such Apollonian, golden magnificence and somehow be deprived of it. To be free of his spell, my only hope is to one day catch a glimpse of Tovey in person, and then (hopefully) chant my sour-grapes talisman, a paraphrase of Carmen Maura's barbiturate-dealer in the great Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown, 1988: "He's not much in person! He's skinnier than on TV!"

    1. I've been at "nodding-and-saying-hi" proximity to the lovely Mr Tovey - it was at the "Protest the Pope" march and rally back in 2010 - and he's every bit as buff and gorgeous as he is on screen...

      PS His comments in the press about "butch men" (which didn't go down very well with the wider gay community, incidentally) were quite "the lie that tells the truth", methinks.

    2. Maybe he should tart himself up in a pair of nine-inch-heels for penance. Ludicrous. He shouldn't have apologized.
