Kneel. Now drink.
Fleabag's Hot Priest, who gave the internet a new religion after Season 2 launched on Amazon Prime in May, is here to answer your prayers. Or more importantly, quench our thirst for him.
At least that's what actor Andrew Scott and show creator/star Phoebe Waller-Bridge did for fans waiting in line early Saturday morning outside London's Wyndham's Theatre, praying for tickets to the massively popular stage production.

"How are you? Have some gin -- I hope you get a ticket!" Scott can be heard saying in a video posted to social media.
Specifically, the two were handing out Gin in a Tin, the canned gin and tonics from British retail chain M&S (Marks & Spencer). Scott's character referenced it in a now-iconic scene from Season 2, which inadvertently caused a 24 percent spike in gin and tonic sales at M&S. Judging from its Instagram, the retail chain had at least some hand in making this lovely moment possible.

The West End production claims to be the final run of Waller-Bridge's one-woman show that later inspired the TV adaptation we know and love. It's such a hot ticket right now that A-list celebrities like Taylor Swift and Charlize Theron were spotted attending Friday's performance.

The G&T's were probably a Hail Mary for fans who likely won't get tickets. But they got the real thing, sharing a "proper drink" with the second coming of our Father in Thirst, Horny be thy Name.
