Our favourite ineffable husbands <3

A quote by Neil Gaiman, following David Tennant and Michael Sheen presenting the award for Best Mini Series at the BAFTAs 2020, which they did Staged style:

One day, when I'm dead, someone at the Gates will ask me if I did anything to qualify for admission to Writers' Heaven. And then I'll list all the books I wrote, and all the good deeds I tried to do, and the worthwhile causes I supported, and they will just stare at me, unsmiling and unimpressed. And finally, in desperation I'll say "Well, I was the first one to put David Tennant and Michael Sheen together..." And the unimpressed expression will become a huge and delighted smile. "You did that?" they will say. "God LOVES them!"

They probably still won't let me in to Writers' Heaven, but I will take that one thing with me as my fragment of Grace, as I trudge down the stairs to Writers' Hell.

The 2020 sketch was fun, but this was the opening sketch for the BAFTAs 2024:

Watch on YouTube

They're just so delightful and their friendship is simply beautiful! And incredibly silly.

Honorary mention must go to David and Georgia on the red carpet. David's outfits on the night were spectacular, but Georgia's dress is simply divine. (If Anna was these also, I apologise. I have not come across pictures of her.)

In short this. <3

i love that sparkly sequin thing he's wearing

[elisi]

His outfits are genuinely amazing.

[promethia_tenk]

I don't think black is his color.

Other than that, flawless. All men should take notes.

[sea_thoughts]

Were David and Georgia secretly cosplaying as Hades and Persephone?

[elisi]

Wouldn't put it past them.

Thank you!

I am amused by David's Scottish Matador outfit. That was a delightful segment, fun cameos from everyone.

[elisi]

I hadn't thought of the jacket as matador-like, but you're right!

And it was a great segment, I love how they drag the whole world into their friendship. <3

[trepkos]

I would love that suit, except that they could have thought more carefully about the pattern at the bottom middle of the jacket ... Once you see it, you can't unsee it.

[elisi]

I... have not noticed. What Tumblr glommed onto was the fact that it has angels and snakes. :)

Now, I just want to watch the BAFOs for David Tennant, who I have an actor crush on.

[elisi]

This is a perfectly valid choice.

Oh, that was so adorable! I'd missed that, so thank you so much for sharing (as always) :-)

And wow, David and Georgia. They are magnificent.

[elisi]

Oh, that was so adorable! I'd missed that, so thank you so much for sharing (as always) :-)
You are MOST welcome! I might have to listen to the Staged soundtrack again...

And wow, David and Georgia. They are magnificent.
That's the word!

[promethia_tenk]

Oh god, I needed that.

There's one pic I saw of them on the red carpet and Georgia just looks like she's going to cut a bitch. She's halfway there in some of the ones you linked, but this one was just like . . . stand back.

[elisi]

YOU'RE ALIVE!!

Oh god, I needed that.
You are welcome. <3 I love them so much.

And if you find that picture of Georgia, do send it.
