The Benedict Cumberbatch Appreciation Society: Never Mind Parade's End, When Will It Begin???

[LadyClariceCannockMonty]

And on it goes ...

We may have had already, but I felt like watching and posting it again. SOooooooo adorable.

Oh no, another photo to which I will have to give careful consideration. Damn you CaveMum

Cumberbatchweb has loads of photos this morning. It also appears that Matt Smith may actually have had pinky/purply socks on

Claire Balding tweeted to say she had chatted with BC who was "as charming as you would expect" however, that's another tick in the box for "things I have in common with BC" as I know Claire's mother! Plus her father tried to chat me up once

Well, I thought it was obvious quite early on that 'Appropriate Adult' was going to sweep the board. And probably rightly so, even though 'Sherlock' was in the running, and even though I spent half the evening shouting at the TV 'What?? Are you mad ??'

Just don't talk to me about Celebrity Bleeding Juice.

Pleased for Andrew Scott and Steve Moffat, though.

And isn't BC (a) gorgeous (which we all knew anyway) and (b) almost unbelievably modest?

Dear Benedict

Modest though you are, I am sure that the result of last night's award ceremonies must have been a disappointment to you.

May I offer an alternative? Pop round to Chez Addict, where I will be more than happy to present you with TheAddict's Award for The Person She Would Most Like To Shag Against The Fridge.

You have also been nominated for TheAddict's Awards for the following categories:

The Person Whom TheAddict Would Most Like To Shag:

a) Tied To The Bed Post
b) Behind The Potting Shed
c) On The Floor
d) In Her Stationery Cupboard
e) Halfway Up The Stairs
f) Dressed As Martin Crieff (you, not me)

and any others you could care to name. The dining room table springs to mind.

I hasten to add that there are no other contenders for these awards, although a lengthy practical demonstration of your skills will be required for each and every category.

That'll cure your jet-lag, sweetheart.

Pantingly yours and covered in whipped cream

TheAddict

Did you notice how nervous/excited Andrew Scott was as he accepted his award? Bless the little love his hands were shaking. He's being made 1st reserve for my "list". Dave Grohl needs to up his game or he's going to find himself replaced

Helllooo? Is there anyone out there???!

[whistles nonchalantly as she bundles BC into the back of her car before anyone notices]

[drives off at speed to nearest hotel]

Recovering from last nights upset..well, there is always next year. AND, I bet, Benedict wins an Oscar one day,so put that in your pipe BAFTA !!

Seriously overdone the vino, in consoling myself. Guess the Fred West thing was very good. BUT, I agree..CELEBRITY JUICE..even the acceptance speech was banal. ( Maybe that's the attraction of this award..last year TOWIE). WE are just in another class altogether... Now, is it too early for a G&T, and a quick look at BC pics????

That's the thing sloppy, BC will have to wait till 2014 for a Sherlock BAFTA as Series 3 won't be broadcast in time to qualify for 2013 awards

Suppose he might get a nomination for Parade's End.

Hello I'm here! Was also thinking he might get a nod for Parade's End, and he'd better win it. Do you hear me BAFTA?

Can just imagine Martin Freeman's reaction? Bastard TOWIE and now Celebrity fucking Juice.

Andrew Scott was indeed very sweet. But oh my, BC and MS presenting the special award were amazeballs! Speaking of lists, I only currently have two on mine so Matt, your luck might be in m'darlin. Conditional upon being part of a package with Benedict

Have you seen the Martin Crieff twitter account? Today it has tweeted:

"So that Cumberbatch fellow didn't get a BAFTA... Would you like that tea now with someone who understands the pain of failure so well?"

My list is rounded off with James Marsters. He's been on my list since I was 15 (before I'd even ever had sex!) [sighs]

Has anyone linked to advert yet? I wasn't watching when it came on the TV - just heard the voice and melted....

Still have NO idea what it's actually advertising!

Ohh,, the voice on the Ad...So beautiful

Loving the link to Martin Crieff twitter, wll check it out before drink too much G&T... Can only imagine Martin Freeman.. he was not there last night..? Still in NZ???

CaveMUm, we will have to hope for Parade's End. I can't imagine what the Bafta lot were thinking..even if Dom. West was good. Benedict just has the extra star quality, and charisma..

Oh well. at least he is back for now, so there may be more photos..( cheers up..)

Nerds together

It takes a special kind of man to make insurance that interesting, or interesting at all

CaveMum that picture is all sorts of awesomeness

Can I just say that I am loving this

Hahahahahahahaha! (Sorry Benedict - still think you should have one - mwah)

I'll give him one! Fnar, fnar

Can't link as I'm on my phone, but make sure you vote for Sherlock in the Best Drama category and either BC or MF for Best Actor in the TV Choice Magazine Awards - Google it and you should find it.

Also vote for BC as "Best in Britain" in the "Greats of Great Britain" Poll. He's currently in 5th place. Go to www.thegreatexhibition2012.co.uk and click on the "Greats of Great Britain" tab.

Public Service Announcement over

Already voted in TV Choice for BC . Will look at that other site when not on iPod.

Watching the tennis and a Jaguar ad came on. What a lovely surprise! And he said that something was seductive, although I can't quite remember what he was saying!

I am insanely jealous of this woman

How come I never find myself in a hotel room with BC????

As an aside, lovely to hear he partied with Dominic West after the ceremony

Sorry, faulty link. Try this

x several million.

I'd have dropped Dominic West's BAFTA on his foot. Not really. Well, maybe a bit.

It's the photo at the end that gets me. Poor little love looks exhausted, but like a true gent, his tie and top button of his shirt are still done up.

[contemplates unbuttoning that shirt]

[faints]
