Ever since he kept waking up places in the nude in the UK TV series Being Human, Russell Tovey has never seemed shy about showing off his body. However there been one part of him that hasn’t been on display to the general public – little Russell.

The lack of Tovey penis has been a source of distress to gay men around the globe, but while we’ve learned to live with it, there’s always been the hope that one day it would show up. However it doesn’t look like it’ll be turning up anytime soon – although in an interview with Metro he does suggest that one day we’ll get to see it.

He says, “I’m saving it because I know that the day I show my knob it’ll just be screen-grabbed, Vined and Tumblred everywhere. That may seem egotistical but my ass is everywhere! I get retweeted pictures of it back to me, so lovely, great, thank you for that.”

So sadly it doesn’t seem out desire to see it may actually be holding back the day it arrives, but hopefully our dreams will come true one day, and images like the one below will keep us going until then.
