The Benedict Cumberbatch Appreciation Society: we're starting to feel the Cabin Pressure!

[CaveMum]

Right, I've taken the plunge!

Get those catwalk pics in here quick!

Hi Prey, is this what you were talking about? If so, you no longer need to covet that. Happy Monday.

Good god, I need to get off the Tumblr.

Prey - the only answer to the question 'How long did that woman stop for?' is 'Too bloody long.' I think it was about three weeks - it felt longer and I'd had enough after about five minutes. In the end it was her own son who told her to go home. Nuff said.

GreenCard - ace tumblr card. Have saved it to harddrive and forwarded it to future SiL.

Lack of BS on doorstep - or indeed anywhere else - last night. I blame the Post Office.

TheAddict

Thanks for that GreenCard. I can't believe I sat at my mum's staring at his picture with a soppy smile on my face.

What am I talking about? I can totally believe it .

Addict - you're a better woman than I am. Closest comparison I can think of is my MIL. I actually really like my MIL, she's a very lovely person. One of the nicest people you could meet. There is no way I'd be able to have her stay with me for a couple of days, never mind three weeks!

A selection of clips from the Olympic programme. Agree with the Tumblr blogger re his little smile on the last clip .

The actual video of this is on YouTube somewhere but this from Oh crumpets, I've been Cumberbatched is lush.

And from the same Tumblr I'll be off to bed now

Oh, he was fab in The Children's Monologues!

Parade's End business: new pics and, if this article is to be believed, an air date!

Yay

Yay, at last! Lovely pics, funny seeing him with chipmunk cheeks, even though it's in character.

Nice to see the stalwarts are still here!

I have a bit of a side question - what's the latest on Phoenix, the film with Liv Tyler that BC is/was signed up to? I thought he was supposed to be filming it in late spring yet not seen a mention anywhere. What's happened, anyone heard anything?

I think it's been shelved fluffy. There has been nothing heard since the cast announcement and BC has been off filming other stuff in the meantime.

It's been a productive evening here (or not, depending on whom you ask).

Series Three filming dates

More screen time for BC in the third Hobbit film?

And Brent Spiner (who played Data on Star Trek: The Next Generation) tells about having dinner with Patrick Stewart at The Ivy and talking with BC. Spiner does voices.

List of games played on Cabin Pressure. Can't wait til my kids are older and I can torture them with these.

And just about everything on this page.

Haven't had a chance to check out all of those links GreenCard, but will do tomorrow.

In the meantime, I give you this

Night all!

Squeeeee for filming starting next year (hopefully)!

That Cabin Pressure meets Sherlock was brilliant!

Brace yourself

Wish there was sound with this

Thanks for all that, GreenCard!

I can offer this on Parade's End.

Rebecca Hall ? MAJOR girl-crush.

Thanks for a bit of enlightenment re Pheonix Frankel - shame, I was really looking forward to that, the most! Hope it gets taken off the shelf at some point...

Benedict and brilliant Sherlock co-star Louise Brealey are to appear at Cheltenham Literary Festival in October!

The actual festival website seems to be hosed (possibly because of the Benedict news) but here's another link: Yay!

It's DS1's 11th birthday in October. Hey, family, let's go to the Cheltenham Festival as a special treat for DS1. Nope.

Anyway, this deserves reposting. Oh yeah.

Good lord, Prey, give a girl some warning!! I opened that link with DH standing behind me. Had to think up a good excuse to explain away the gasp that escaped me.

Doesn't Mum get a present for popping out the kid and going through pregnancy and labour??

Thigh stroking. Yes.

(wipes drool from chin)

Have you infiltrated WAYWB Prey???

The latest post seems tailor made for you

Never click on links whilst DH/DP is anywhere in the vicinity, or always be prepared to curtail any gasps

Frankel that's the fingerporn isn't it? I saw that earlier and "needed a moment". I love WAYWB so much

What's the one of him in a lab coat from? I think I can place almost all the others...

That one of him putting the tape in the deck ...

I know Cumberbuddy has this listed as natural beauty (which is still is), but he looks tired. His eyes look awfully bloodshot (something I recognize from those lovely all-nighters my kids made me deal with when they were nursing).

Poor Benedict. I'd be happy to offer him a cozy bed , but then again, I wouldn't actually let him rest then...

Definitely wouldn't get any rest with me either

In a continuation from the fingerporn, I have just trawled through two old BCAS threads (it was difficult but I was doing it for the group) to find this link. Obviously the one on the right is familiar, but I don't think the one on the left gets anywhere near enough exposure.

With hands/fingers like that, it is completely beyond me that he never learned to play the piano. Seriously.

I am sure, however, that he knows how to play other parts of the female anatomy things.

Those are naughty, naughty thoughts coursing through my brain. (fans self)

Not really BC-related, but....

Just saw this from a friend over on FB. Is that Andrew Scott at 1:16 on the left?

And there is no way Patrick Stewart could pass for a street guy. With those teeth? He's messing with the American stereotype about Brits.
