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

WakeUpRosemary - very very Envy. But in a good way!

kayzr - is he as attractive as Andrew Scott? CaveMum might need her wibbliness seeing to Grin.

DesperateHousewife - that's exactly how I intended it!

Kayzr · 09/02/2012 18:28

Yes he is!!! He's very very nice. He's replaced my GP who has retired so I am hoping he will be my new one Grin

CaveMum · 09/02/2012 18:30

The Dr will see you now Wink

Kayzr - he may seem very nice, your new doctor, but I just want to you bear in mind next time you go for a check up.

Just saying, that's all... Grin

Kayzr · 09/02/2012 18:43

Grin I think I might make an excuse to see doctor.

LetUsPrey · 09/02/2012 18:47

I suspect illness rates are going to skyrocket!

CaveMum · 09/02/2012 18:48

Ah, but it's not quite so menacing when set to

Grin

He does have "a quality", but I'm still all about the Cumberbatch Grin

Agree. Even in that clip, couldn't take my eyes off BC.

SurferRosa · 09/02/2012 18:52

Would rather have BC as 'doctor', sorry.

LetUsPrey · 09/02/2012 19:15

We already know how good he is at taking a pulse Grin.

DesperateHousewife21 · 09/02/2012 19:16

I might have to suggest the third Sherlock series 1 tonight. I need my fix again and my hormones are all over the place ttc no. 2 so I've been feeling particularly.....can't think of a better word other than horny sorry!

LetUsPrey · 09/02/2012 19:38

Surely when TTC horny is good? And if a little bit of BC is helpful, then really what's the problem?

I'm off to listen to that Jaguar ad again.

Kayzr · 09/02/2012 19:41

Yes of course horny is good. My DP works away and when I got pg I hadn't see him for 5 weeks!! Now 21 weeks and expecting a girl. Grin

Kayzr · 09/02/2012 19:45

I have just found the song isn't good but I love the video. Sherlock and Lestrade are my favourites.

CaveMum · 09/02/2012 19:51

I could do with some Sherlock inspired ttc assistance! Trying for 2 years now, no luck Sad

LetUsPrey · 09/02/2012 19:57

A very unMNy for you CaveMum. Both DC took a while.

Kayzr · 09/02/2012 20:00

Awwww Cavemum Sad

LetUsPrey · 09/02/2012 20:03

Like and the song.

CaveMum · 09/02/2012 20:03

Thanks ladies, sorry to drag the tone of the thread down. I'm doing ok really: I have more up days than down days and the Drs have me on Clomid now which is doing its job and getting me ovulating.

Anyway, no moping on this thread! Bring forth the Cumberbatch!

LetUsPrey · 09/02/2012 20:15

[ This is one of my favourites].

Mind you, it's a long list.

LetUsPrey · 09/02/2012 20:16

Poo and piddle.

TeamDamon · 10/02/2012 11:45

How can be condensed into 38 seconds?

The shot at 20 secs and the one at 23 secs are my particular favourites images - those eyes. Oh, those eyes.

DesperateHousewife21 · 10/02/2012 17:13

The thought of doing naughty things to him is literally the only thing keeping me going through this dreadful AF atm.
