Hello all! Sorry to be late to the party.

BTW, it is I – the poster formerly known as, among other things, LadyClariceCannockMonty and FuckingWankwings. Fancied a namechange and it's in honour of my new favourite hipster vampire film.

Will go through some of the links when I get time but just wanted to join the thread: there's been a sad lack of Cumberbatch on my Mumsnet front page since we filled up the last one!

Cumberlover76 · 25/02/2014 16:18

Plenty of Cumberbatch lovin' on here OnlyLovers. If there was a little less, or if i didn't get my 4pm Benedict Cumberbatch Google Alert, i might get some more work done!

Cumberbatch Star Wars rumor

Interested in this thread?

I really hope that if BC and Gary Oldman get involved in this it'll be better than the pile of drivel that is (are?) parts I, II and III! Harrison Ford is looking really pretty old these days, not sure he can cut it as an action star for much longer (my Star Wars heart will always belong to Han Solo, BC or no BC!).

Welcome back OnlyLovers (aka Clarice) Grin

Aw, thanks Frankel! I must admit my affections are being SLIGHTLY swayed towards lovely Tom H at the moment, but probably just because I've seen more of him recently (so to speak) than of Benedict. I applied for but didn't get Cabin Pressure tickets, unsurprisingly, and, well, he's not in much else at the mo is he? I did think he looked surprisingly hot in 12 Years a Slave though; his dark hair and very blue eyes were extremely seductive Grin

FrankelInFoal · 25/02/2014 18:40

Not sure when we'll see him next. He's been working in the US lately on something, Hamlet will probably by in the autumn and The Imitation Game is likely to be a late-2014 release in order to make awards season.

OnlyLovers · 25/02/2014 18:42

Do we know what he's working on in the US?
Maybe I'll have to dig out the old Sherlock DVDs in the meantime to keep me going!

HRHsherlockssextoy · 25/02/2014 19:14

There was a vicious rumour that hamlet won't be on this year now......

But no film in April, which leaves him free to attend to my needs. It is my birthday.

BC with a light sabre. I wonder what colour it will be? He can swish his sword around me anytime.

I'll even dress up like Princess Leia for him. I know.

FrankelInFoal · 25/02/2014 19:21

I suspect he's working on The Lost City of Z, but there are a few projects listed against his name on IMDB.

OP posts:
Cumberlover76 · 25/02/2014 19:27

Hmmmm, I'd like him to take me to infinity and beyond! Oh hang on, sorry that's Buzz Light year .......

In other news, I want this but reckon DH would have other ideas! Need a teenage girl's room for my teenage girl's crush!

LetUsPrey · 25/02/2014 19:37

I love from when it was the piano night thing on Channel 4. They are both so sweet! I'd love to go out drinking with them Grin

HRHsherlockssextoy · 25/02/2014 19:53

cumberlover back of a bathroom door?
Put it on the seat next to you in your drive to work?

letuspray very nice

Cumberlover76 · 25/02/2014 20:00

I could roll him up and hide him in the cupboard .....

HRHsherlockssextoy · 25/02/2014 20:36

I can see the daily mail now

"Sherlock star Benedict in disappearance mystery"

We all know where he is though

Cumberlover76 · 25/02/2014 20:45

FrankelInFoal · 25/02/2014 21:51

A friend has just PM'd me on Facebook to say one of her friends just texted her from a theatre in London to say she is sat next to BC Shock Envy

OP posts:
HRHsherlockssextoy · 25/02/2014 22:09

frankel as long as she's not with him, that's ok.

Anyway, he's in cumberlover cupboard.

I can just imagine sitting next to him in the theatre. Grips his knees in terror, offers to buy him an ice cream in intermission, finds chair too uncomfortable, gets viewing goggles out.

Off to bed now....

FrankelInFoal · 25/02/2014 22:16

My friend's promised to ask her friend what he smelt like Grin

Cumberlover76 · 25/02/2014 22:17

What are they watching?

FrankelInFoal · 26/02/2014 08:29

No idea! The other friend very inconsiderately switched her phone off Wink My friend promises an update at the weekend.

OnlyLovers · 26/02/2014 09:09

Hello Prey!

Frankel, yes, sorry, I could've been less lazy and looked on IMDB Grin. Penguins of Madagascar, maybe...? But Lost City of Z seems more likely.

HRH, where did you hear that rumour about Hamlet?

Cumberlover76 · 26/02/2014 09:14

I really hope he still is doing Hamlet in the Autumn as i so want to go for my birthday. I've promised DH a trip to the Olympic Velodrome for his, so hopefully he'll be up for Hamlet for mine!

HRHsherlockssextoy · 26/02/2014 09:46

It was on one of the blogs yesterday, translated interview from chinese.

NeedsAGreenCardForFantasyLand · 26/02/2014 10:10

Jesus, I go off MN for a whole day, and an ENTIRE page of posts crops up. What a lovely start to my morning off! Grin

A friend of mine sent me this link. For the record, I got Sherlock.

The only way to make this more perfect would have been to Photoshop a lemon onto his head.

He looks like he's 25 in these shots.
