Benedict Cumberbatch Appreciation Society: those eyes, those cheekbones, THAT voice!

Seeing as the Sherlock discussions are dying down I thoguth I'd start a new thread for all the BC fans out there - judging by the number of MNers with him on their "List", he surely deserves his own thread.

So here it is: a place to share videos, pictures, articles and whatever else you want. The only thing I'll say is that I'd appreciate it if no one posted a link to the video(s) of BC dancing at a wedding. Apparently it was stolen from his ex girlfriend and is the cause of much upset. So lets be respectful. Otherwise, anything goes Grin

I'll get us started with some personal favourites:

- pay close attention to the wink @ 0.42 and his whip action @ 0.51 Grin

And finally some gratuitous , with my personal favourite the black and white shot featured at 2.53 [drools]

Share/comment away Grin

Yup, BAFTA television nominations cover programmes broadcast from March to February, so Sherlock fits the criteria.

Welcome to the new recruits, still not keen on the term "Cumberbitches" so we'll have to try and come up with something ourselves [bgrin]

No ideas on a name. I'm still enjoying the thought of being Cumberbatched. Grin

Housewifefromheaven · 26/01/2012 08:53

Thanks to cave I now have 'welcome to London' as my ringtone.

When it rings my knickers feel funny hehehehe

DesperateHousewife21 · 26/01/2012 09:41

Ok I'm officially sherlocked. Reading the numerous BC appreciation threads and drooling watching him on everything Sherlock has got me completely hooked.

letusprey that pic is so bloody sexy in keeping that on my phone to glance at throughout the day!

I agree that I never really gave him much notice til the Sherlock series recently but now I can't stop watching clips, esp the one of him winking and saying to Molly that he needs her

Kayzr · 26/01/2012 09:44

I love the clips of them both laughing together.

is good. For some reason BC leaning back on the chair at 1 minute 10 seconds gives me filthy thoughts.

CaveMum You have probably seen but it is very nice and has BC and DT in it.

Last thing from me. Very nice picture

DesperateHousewife21 · 26/01/2012 09:50

Oooh that wink

Housewifefromheaven · 26/01/2012 10:15

Kay that's a great video, ive not seen series one yet. Its just arrived so woo hoo!!!

Kayzr · 26/01/2012 10:17

I haven't seen it either. I only watched series 2 after Cavemum introduced me to Benedict on another thread. I am hoping it arrives today.

DesperateHousewife21 · 26/01/2012 10:37

I watched series 1 when it was on tv but can't really remember any of it so...I've just bought it for a fiver on amazon eeee! Can't wait!
Glad dh likes it so I don't have to explain my sudden need to watch it

Kayzr · 26/01/2012 10:54

Series 1 has just arrived!!! So excited now!!!

TheRhubarb · 26/01/2012 10:56
LetUsPrey · 26/01/2012 12:38

Can't watch the clip yet as I'm at work.

Seems like DH might be out tonight so I shall be settling down with A Study In Pink and a notepad.

Are you lost TheRhubarb? Grin

TheRhubarb · 26/01/2012 13:03

Huh? What?

I cannot believe you lot are sexually fantasising over Sherlock. I reckon that's the first time in his 150 year history that that's ever happened. I mean, as good as Brett and Rathbone were, sex objects they most certainly were not!

Even good old Watson's suddenly become hot property!

I don't quite know what to make of it all.

CaveMum · 26/01/2012 13:12

Ah Rhubarb, m'dear, but it's not just as Sherlock, though undoubtedly that's what most of the resident ladies have in mind Wink
BC has the uncanny ability to be downright lickable in most of his roles and actually seems to be a genuinely nice chap. Plus the fact he keeps talking about how broody he is has got the ovaries around this place spontaneously combusting Grin

exexpat · 26/01/2012 13:17

And the voice. Don't forget the voice. Have you heard him reading poetry on youtube?

Housewifefromheaven · 26/01/2012 13:17

Different strokes for different folks and all that rhubarb.

Now apologise to LetUsPrey there's a good girl :)

TheRhubarb · 26/01/2012 13:26

Got you broody? So he wants to inflict a lifetime of stretch marks on you, watch you soar in weight, witness a human beach ball pop out your flange and watch as your once sharp mind is reduced to wibbling and quivering like a mad woman whilst surrounded by poo, wee and vomit and that ATTRACTS you to him?????

Housewifefromheaven · 26/01/2012 13:30

go away and leave us alone!! Don't sully my perfect thread!!

SnowieBear · 26/01/2012 13:31

Rhubarb, you are not going to win this one... share a Brew with me.

TheRhubarb · 26/01/2012 13:36

Sob. Nobody wants me. Sob.

Thanks snowie, hope that's tea, I don't like coffee. And 2 sugars please.

exexpat · 26/01/2012 13:36

And just to get back on topic, has anyone seen this one: .

I just stumbled upon it, I wasn't looking for naked pictures, honest.

TheCuntwormUnderfoot · 26/01/2012 13:37

Until recently I thought his name was Cumberpatch.
