Get Cumberbatched: It's the Benedict Cumberbatch Appreciation Society - here's your Starter For Ten

[LetUsPrey]

Hope this meets with your approval. It was getting a bit full on the other thread so we've extended and now need to decorate the new space.

For the walls.

Ha ha seashells!! I'm sure the PSOS appears in Hounds of Baskerville too!

Booo! The Cumberbatch lost out in that "Most Crushworthy Poll" by less than 400 votes.

He lost to some bloke I've never heard of, a blond pretty boy. Yeuch! Not worthy to lick BC's shoes.

Okay, why is everyone having norty BC dreams except me? S'not fair.

The PSOS does indeed appear in The Hounds of Baskerville. I know this because I was watching it on Saturday evening and I commented "ooh the Purple Shirt of Sex". Fortunately DH was out of the room at the time.

I'm not getting dreams either. I'm having to make do with filthy daydreams - a couple of minutes hours here and there makes work more enjoyable and my boss thinks I'm such a happy soul

Haha SurferRosa - I know what you mean. I have a picture taped to my pc at work - let's call it the "I'm going to take you into the stables" picture . Every so often, I'll look at it and smile.

As far as the dreams are concerned, I did have a dream about BC but it wasn't norty. He was sitting in an armchair and looked to be doing a crossword/puzzle thing. I offered to help. I ended up sitting on his knee, touching his neck and I think his arms were round my waist. Fully clothed though. And I think he had his "Sherlock hair". I prefer him with ginger hair but to be honest I wouldn't be that picky in reality!

Ah the "stables" picture . . . (drifts into Cumberland again).

I listened to the first episode of Cabin Pressure on the way home. Absolutely bloody hilarious! Can anyone smell smoke? The writing and acting were both fabulous. Might not be such a good idea to laugh quite so much whilst driving though.

Glad you liked it Prey
I listen to it most days, you've got some great episodes ahead. My personal favourite is probably Molokai, the Christmas episode, if only for Arthur's interpretation of God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen

Yellow car!

I now have the Sherlock music The Game Is On as my ringtone.

I also have a selection of text alerts: "we'll start with the riding crop"; "mmm bad cop"; "money or sex ... mmm sex"; and of course "a damn good shag"! I can't, however, have these set when DH is around so I'll use them when I'm at work!

From the same writer as Cabin Pressure - John Finnemore - I thought this was pretty hysterical (even better if voiced by BC, but you can't have everything I suppose):

For fellow lovers of Cabin Pressure, here is something else from John Finnemore.
It is about News of the World, so I hope not too serious, but also very funny.

Hello all. How is everyone? Welcome mammya (apologies if you're not new by the way, I'm finding it difficult to keep up!)

The John Finnemore NotW piece was brilliant.

I listened to Cabin Pressure ep 2 today - Boston. Fantastic!

And now let's have

And

Where is everyone?

I'll watch - an old favourite whilst I'm waiting.

Reverting to my dream of a few nights ago, I just knew there was something about it that didn't ring true: of course, one should never play Bach on a piano....

I'm here! Trying to get some coursework work done, but failing miserably!

Ha! Found you!

TheAddict - the issue with your dream is not the playing of Bach on a piano, but more the fact that if that were my dream I would be shagging BC on the piano.

CaveMum - coursework? Really? Instead of BC? I'm disappointed in you.

I'm now watching Big Fat Gypsy Wedding. Is that better?!

I'll have my daily BC fix when I get in to bed (oh if only ): listening to more Cabin Pressure.

As penance, I will post this one again, even if it does feature "her"

I've just realised, if you look at that picture carefully, she's not even looking at him . She's staring off into the distance. What the jeff???!!! Is she insane??

They wouldn't have been able to publish the picture if I'd been in it with BC! It would have been far too rude.

Hello, yes I am new on this thread, and I like BC but I am not such a big fan as you all obviously are! I wanted to post a link to that print that a friend of mine did, thought you might appreciate it...

Your friend is very talented!

Anyone else like the shades?

Have you seen this interview with Moffatt? Interesting comments about Sherlock.

Hello! I'm still here! Just had a bit of enforced absence due to other half using the pc for a couple of nights (how dare he).

I'm enjoying the fanvids (and liking the shades very much, clarashu!).

Ordered 'Mystery Man' by Colin Bateman today. The guy in the bookstore said "It's really good, funny. It's a bit mad though - have you read any of his books before?" I mumbled something about "oh I've heard it's good that's all."

Thought it best not to mention it being a manifestation of acute Cumberfever.
