I have loved & been completely fascinated with Oscar Wilde since I was a child. I feel emotional seeing this and am so happy that Andrew Scott had this experience 💞

Is there anywhere to watch the whole episode?

Full episode please?

Kinda shocked that they don’t wear gloves to handle such precious documents. Every contact with fingers is going to leave oil.

[@mackt6482]

Gloves are more likely to soak up oil overtime, so it is better to not use them

[@oscarwilde1441]

Right, but if you wear gloves, you can't really feel the paper and are more likely to tear it. That's why many people who handle rare documents of any kind touch them with clean and dry hands
