Who is Marc Gatiss?
Mark Gatiss is a 55 year old actor and comedian who has now added screenwriter and novelist to his roster of professions.
Born in Sedgefield, County Durham, Mark grew up in a working-class family and loved Hammer horror films as well as Doctor Who.
He also adored authors HG Wells and Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, who wrote the Sherlock Holmes novels, later inspiring Mark’s television series.
After studying at a school near Darlington, he became a theater student at Bretton Hall College, associated with the University of Leeds.
There he met Reece Shearsmith, Steve Pemberton and Jeremy Dyson, with whom he formed the black comedy sketch group The League Of Gentlemen.
The League play won the Perrier Prize at the Edinburgh Festival in 1997, which led to a radio spin-off, then a TV series – and ultimately a 2005 spin-off film.
On the TV show, Mark played a variety of larger-than-life grotesques inspired by life in the darkest, darkest Yorkshire, including desperate vet Mr. Chinnery and job center thug Mickey.
