马克·加蒂斯 publishing house: Scribner 2005 - 10
Meet Lucifer Box: Equal parts James Bond and Sherlock Holmes, with a twist of Monty Python and a dash of Austin Powers, Lucifer has a charming countenance and rapier wit that make him the guest all hostesses must have. And most do.But few of his conquests know that Lucifer is also His Majesty's most daring secret agent, at home in both London's Imperial grandeur and in its underworld of despicable vice. So when Britain's most prominent scientists begin turning up dead, there is only one man his country can turn to for help.Following a dinnertime assassination, Lucifer is dispatched to uncover the whereabouts of missing agent Jocelyn Poop. Along the way he will give art lessons, be attacked by a poisonous centipede, bed a few choice specimens, and travel to Italy on business and pleasure. Aided by his henchwoman Delilah; the beautiful, mysterious, and Dutch Miss Bella Pok; his boss, a dwarf who takes meetings in a lavatory; grizzled vulcanologist Emmanuel Quibble; and the impertinent, delicious, right-hand-boy Charlie Jackpot, Lucifer Box deduces and seduces his way from his elegant townhouse at Number 9 Downing Street (somebody has to live there) to the ruined city of Pompeii, to infiltrate a highly dangerous secret society that may hold the fate of the world in its clawlike grip--the Vesuvius Club.

《绅士联盟》是BBC在1999年出品的英式系列黑色喜剧。故事发生在一个以英国北部的坎布里亚郡阿尔斯通为原型的小镇——罗伊斯屯儿。这个小镇上生活着非常怪诞的居民,这里的所有人都是编剧马克·加蒂斯,史蒂夫·佩姆伯顿,杰瑞米·德桑 ,里斯·谢尔史密斯笔下的角色。四位编剧在1995组建了以“绅士联盟”为名的喜剧团体。 没有听过这部剧童鞋肯定听过被各大媒体公众号各种推荐的另外两部英剧“疯城记”"9号密事"。如果对这两部剧欲罢不能,那就绝对不能错过绅士联盟。因为绅士联盟可以说是雏形版的“疯城记”"9号密事",少了点暗黑,多了份幽默,谁叫他们的编剧都是 Steve Pemberton、Reece ShearSmith两位鬼才呢。

Mark Gatiss On John Minton: The Lost Man Of British Art (2018)
Douban
马修·托马斯 actor: 马克·加蒂斯 / Norman Bowler …
John Minton was for a time one of the most popular 20th century British artists, more famous even than his contemporaries Francis Bacon and Lucian Freud. But his seemingly charmed life was cut tragically short and his work is now largely forgotten. For the actor and writer Mark Gatiss, Minton has been something of an obsession since he first came across his work as a teenager, and in this personal, authored film, he tells the story of Minton’s colourful, complex life for the first time on television. A prolific and talented painter, Minton was one of the leading figures in post-war British art, known for his landscapes, portraits and large-scale murals. He was also a brilliant and commercially successful illustrator, whose work on books, magazines, and film and travel posters brought him real fame. But this artistic tension wasn’t the only one in his life. As a gay man living in a deeply repressive era, he struggled with his own sexuality and sought refuge in the hard drinking culture of Soho and its tight circle of fellow bohemians. Mark plunges back into Minton’s world, from the headiness of Soho to the serenity and beauty of Corsica, where Minton produced some of his most influential work. Meeting his friends, contemporaries, former models and students, including Bridget Riley and Peter Blake, he comes across unseen photos, lost paintings and rare recordings of a man whose life and work seemed to disappear overnight. For Mark, it’s time to invite John Minton back to the party he left all too soon.
