Yahoo News This man got a tattoo of Ian Beale's "ugly crying face"
Some bloke got a large tattoo of EastEnders' Ian Beale's "ugly crying face" on his leg – and he's not even a fan of the soap.
What's more, he's been busily trolling Adam Woodyatt (who plays Ian Beale, crying face and all) on Twitter, asking him to sign the tat.
Luke Evangelou said he wanted to get the artwork done after watching the infamous Ian Beale crying episode back in 2014...
"I thought it would be funny. It doesn't bother me that it's on me for life. I remember watching that episode and I thought he looked funny," he explained.
"I don't really watch EastEnders but I know that episode. I wondered how many takes it took. It is such an ugly crying face. The other actor must have been pissing himself."
Elaborating on the trolling Adam Woodyatt issue, Luke continued: "Once I had it, I thought it would be funny to go on Twitter to get the actor's attention. I'm sending the picture to him every day.
"I want him to see it and then sign the tattoo and then I will get that tattooed as well.
"He has no reason to be bullied by me. I call him Ian on Twitter even though I know he's called Adam, but he's not even acknowledging it.
"If he sees it and hates it then at least he would have seen it. It is just a bit of a joke that got out of hand."
Luke, who is yet to get a response from Adam, added: "I've put a lot of thought into this. It's such a stupid tattoo but it's been done good. It isn't just a shit tattoo. He made it really highly detailed. It was so much effort.
"My girlfriend thinks it's stupid but she didn't even react. She wasn't mad but I've had a disgusting reaction from everyone else.
"My nan finds it hilarious but her husband thinks it's disgusting. I care for the elderly and a lot of them don't like it."
Well, thank goodness his nan enjoys it. Over to you, Ian Beale Adam Woodyatt.
And if after that, you're ready to call time on the internet forever, know this – it's not even the first time something like this has happened.
Last year, a student hit the headlines after drunkenly getting a homeless Ian Beale tattoo on her leg. A few months later, guess what? She ended up on Tattoo Fixers, but not to have it removed – to have it finished.
