Mark Gatiss is also gay and just awesome. There's a lot of gay teasing in Sherlock, but it's never offensive like this.
And 'gay TV for gay fans', what a load of bollocks. It's aimed at the straight male audience just like everything else now. That was the great thing about Torchwood, it found a queer and female fanbase, but apparently we weren't good enough and he had to move on to 'America', which means 'straight, white America'.
I don't know if RTD is self-hating, particularly. I'd go for everything-hating.
