The Most Adorable Feud Ever: Sir Fatrick Poowart vs Thomas Middlebitch
Sir Patrick Stewart is by most accounts an hilarious and delightful person to be around. He was recently involved in quite the spate with his Shakespearean-actor colleague, Thomas Middleditch. I’m not entirely certain what set off the row, but Thomas was the first to fire a (rather unintelligible) shot:
It took Sir Patrick about a week to respond (perhaps because he didn’t even notice to begin with), but then it was off to the races:
The insults became more and more sophisticated:
The two soon discovered the joys of Photoshop, and went to town creating scenarios for their heated feud. On Stewart’s part, he painted Thomas as “Middlebitch,” his personal servant:
Car Washer Middlebitch
Personal Chef Middlebitch
Smells-of-Farts Middlebitch
Hedge-Trimming Middlebitch
Wood-Chopping Middlebitch
Middleditch, for his part, painted Sir Patrick as “Sir Fatrick Poowart,” a doddering oldie-olson on the brink of inevitable death:
Not-Long-Now Stewart
Sir Fatrick
There was also this miscellaneous insult:
Poowart
Things seem to have cooled down as of this week, though, which is a minor shame. It’s always a joy when two people with such obvious affection for each other decide to publicly delight each other and us by extension.
Even Lower, Middlebitch.
