We love this man.

There are four Irish entertainers officially nominated for a Golden Globe, and you can add the legendary Patrick Stewart to that list. The veteran actor found out about his nod - Best Actor in a TV Comedy Series - for his lead role on Blunt Talk while on holiday in Jamaica, and he took to Twitter to celebrate the achievement. The 75-year-old told People.com about the hilarious moment he found out: "I'm on vacation in Jamaica, and I'm thinking that the announcements are not going to be made for another two hours, when suddenly I heard this howl from the bedroom where my wife, I thought, was sleeping," said the Star Trek actor. "And I rushed in because she's terrified of spiders so I thought a tarantula climbed into bed with her or something – no, she was already online looking at the announcements and the nominations." Here is a clip of the show that has brought him the good news. https://youtu.be/miYYipdtLs4 Clip via Starz
