I've not seen these before.

I'm still rather stunned by that last photo though HRH. It makes me just want to rip his shirt off....

BornToFolk · 28/02/2014 15:49

Wow, HRH! Gorgeous!

What channel is the Oscars on, anyone know?

HRHsherlockssextoy · 28/02/2014 16:12

It's on sky oscars, with a repeat later I think

So you want to frisk me

hands up

oh my goodness me! Yes he is so gorgeous in the photo that HRH has posted.

Blimey looking at this thread is not helping my obsession!

RiverTam · 28/02/2014 16:32

HRHsherlockssextoy · 28/02/2014 16:36

I'm so sorry for messing your whole day
But really
kiss kiss

RiverTam · 28/02/2014 16:42

keep it coming, I'm having a very s-l-o-w afternoon at work!

HRHsherlockssextoy · 28/02/2014 16:53

Oh go on then rivertam

the eyes

LetUsPrey · 28/02/2014 16:57

This is a favourite. I think it's from 2010

RiverTam · 28/02/2014 17:03

now, that last one HRH - it kind of does and doesn't look like him - it's very odd. Amazing eyes.

That one's lovely, Prey. He is aging immensely well, is he not - he's only 5 years younger than me but looks way less than that.

BornToFolk · 28/02/2014 17:19

He is ageing extremely well, although I think both him and Martin Freeman seem to have aged loads since the first series of Sherlock. It's really marked if you watch S3, then go back to S1.
I don't get Sky Oscars :( I have set the red carpet thingy to record though (is on Sky Living). I'm sure clips of the relevant bits will be all over the internet the next day anyway!

I can't get the song from out of my head. I've been walking round for days singing "all the dirty girls love Benedict Cumberbatch!"

holmessweetholmes · 28/02/2014 17:55

Ooh LetUsPrey - I'm not sure I've ever seen that one. It is lurrvely. That stance ... .

LetUsPrey · 28/02/2014 17:59

Here sort of

holmessweetholmes · 28/02/2014 18:02

Oh and that eyes one, HRH! And the video... I have a million and one things on my to do list but instead I am looking at lovely Benedict. Ah well, he is so very worthy of being looked at

SugarFinney · 28/02/2014 19:12

I got a couple of hours to myself this afternoon so belatedly watched the Apple Store Q&A and the BAFTA NY In Conversation interview. Both well worth watching - funny and entertaining. Benedict is so articulate and seems such a genuine person with no hidden agenda. He also has that very slight lisp occasionally which I find myself looking out for ... very endearing.

probably a link fail due to phone issues... But WOW

RiverTam · 28/02/2014 19:28

Frankel - he has a pianist's hands, doesn't he - flat fingertips, large handspan.

wibble.

holmessweetholmes · 28/02/2014 19:47

Ah yes - I'm familiar with the live action version, Prey. It was my absolute fave at one point. I pretty much watched it on loop Blush . He is so delightfully coy in it. And I just love love love his hair like that. Dark and tously. Mmmm.

SciFiFan · 28/02/2014 20:31

Sudename thank you for that link to 'those damn jeans'. Dear God I'll just be watching it on repeat all evening. The bit where he's on the ground and his shirt rides up......gulp Blush. DH should not be working tonight!!!

NeedsAGreenCardForFantasyLand · 28/02/2014 21:21

Argh! The German digital music rights group has blocked the Jeans video. Does anyone have a Vimeo link I could use? Thanks!!

RiverTam · 28/02/2014 21:35

I'm with you SciFiFan - the sun was shining on my monitor at work so I couldn't get a close look but justchecked again - there's definitely a cheeky flash of pants there, are there not, as he's crawling round the floor?

The original pilot is on one of the DVDs, I might have to have a look with my finger on the pause button.

IHaveSeenMyHat · 28/02/2014 22:04

I know what you mean about the slight lisp SugarFinney! I'm not sure it's a lisp per se (he doesn't do it when he puts his Sherlock voice on), it's a kind of posh boy thing Grin Very endearing anyway!

And yes, he looks SO much younger in s1 Sherlock. When was that filmed? 2010?
