Spotted on Bristol’s Corn Street yesterday at 4.45pm: only Dante Gabriel bleedin’ Rossetti himself! Well, actually it was Aidan Turner, the actor who plays Rossetti in the highly entertaining Desperate Romantics (and, of course, is also Mitchell the vampire in Being Human).
With trademark unruly curls and toting a gym bag, he had the sprightly step of a man freshly showered after a vigorous workout, and seemed genuinely chuffed by the tremors of female excitement his presence was causing.
You can watch all the episodes of Desperate Romantics here (and also a clip of Turner reciting one of Rossetti’s sonnets):
