Q: You own a miniature long-haired dachshund called Archie. Does having a small dog compromise your masculinity?

A: Occasionally. Fortunately though I’m already an actor and wear nicely tailored coats, so it doesn’t make much difference. It can get a bit too much though. One day recently I was wearing quite a poncey coat and walking Archie around Old Compton Street and suddenly thought ‘oh Christ’. I felt like such a lord. Where would fashion be without the feminine touch, though? You need that in art, fashion, everything. No one I know is a jock, I don’t have any jock friends, that’s why I went into fucking acting to begin with.

I know.... I just 'aww'd aloud at that! Awesome little bit. Sherlock in full-steam-aggravated-calculating and John, again, goes from this-is-so-very-bad-sherlock-wth-have-you-done to omg-you're-amazing in one second flat again.

Yes, which is exactly why I like him so much.

kittykat · August 16, 2013 1:04 pm

I just love his sense of humour

...and the dead-earnest expression on his face that goes with it

But I also get those who have a hard time understanding the punchline, I think you either love or hate his idea of a joke. I love it

kittykat · August 16, 2013 1:28 pm

I love it! Maybe it's a British thing, I don't know. But we do tend to be very deadpan with humour. He's got a very dry wit He's said some things which could come across as arrogant from anyone else, but you can tell that it's not the case with him. Like the **** you, I won a BAFTA thing, that was hilarious!

the_dancing_woman · August 16, 2013 1:39 pm

The BAFTA line was hilarious, and I mean Graham Norton sort of provoked it a bit I would say

kittykat · August 16, 2013 1:46 pm

That's what he does, and he knows exactly what he gets himself into!

Have you seen Bruiser? Martin was so great in that!
