I hate smoking and everything about it, I hate the lingering smell and it looks ugly and people should know better. I always complain about it. But Benedict smoking, well ... that's different isn't it ... elegant and sexy and a little bit naughty

Ooh, that's from Turning Point, HRH. Lots of hot, smoking action in that one!

I quite often prefer people who smoke. Most of my friends are ex-smokers, as am I. I'm actually a bit annoyed that on a dating site I signed up with, the automatically assume that if you are a non-smoker, you'd prefer a non-smoking partner. I don't really mind.

I love the scene in Sherlock with him and Mycroft smoking and their mum catching them!

hold on a minute - the 2nd Hobbit film isn't out on dvd yet. So no dragon action for me hurumph.

I do think it's important for an actor to be able to smoke properly - Keanu Reeves in Constantine (USP: chain smoker) clearly isn't a smoker and he just looked all wrong, despite being very beautiful and all that. BC would have been a masterful Constantine and would have smoked to perfection.

I used to be terribly anti smoking when I was younger, but quite uptight, which is what I think you can be, but as I've got older, I don't mind it so much. Each to their own and it is sexy.

Nothing bad about this photo. Must stop looking. As if. Anyone watching the oscars. If you have e he might crop up, on live from the red carpet.

wet and shirtless

RiverTam · 02/03/2014 21:26

Discovered yesterday that Parades End was on the new Kindle Prime thing. Am already on Episode 4 and may even finish it tonight. Love his character in it, always so sad and put upon, makes me just want to cuddle him and other things Grin

piratecat · 02/03/2014 21:44

oh my good gracious this is just beautiful.

sorry if it's been done before.

sigh

ColinFirthsGirth · 02/03/2014 21:51

Oh dear god piratecat! He is soooooo gorgeous in that photo. I am getting a hot flush!

ColinFirthsGirth · 02/03/2014 21:52

Rivertam - wow! he has a lovely adam's apple - I never thought I would ever write those words down

piratecat · 02/03/2014 21:54

Colin

he's all wet............arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!

ColinFirthsGirth · 02/03/2014 21:57

I know Piratecat - he is sooo lovely wet. I just imagined being the one in charge of making him wet.

I could put the drops of water on him individually with a dropper so I could pay close attention to detail - I would be good at that! Grin

ColinFirthsGirth · 02/03/2014 22:00

I haven't admired a wet man so much since Colin Firth got out of the lake in his shirt in Pride and Prejudice!

holmessweetholmes · 02/03/2014 22:06

Good lord. That wet naked one, Piratecat... Wow.

Oh my good God piratecat I will have sweet dreams tonight after that pic

NeedsAGreenCardForFantasyLand · 02/03/2014 23:05

Success! I have just Cumberbatched a friend of mine from uni!! (evil cackle) Just had a furious Facebook exchange about what she should watch next. (She was quite intrigued about the promise of bare bottom in TTEE.) Today: Nebraska. Tomorrow: The world!!

heh heh heh...

Also finally got DS1 to sit still long enough to listen to an episode of Cabin Pressure. Since we play Yellow Car together, I played Vaduz for him (he loved the Maxi-Arthur fights). He actually wanted more! Now if I could just get the 4 yo to be quiet long enough for us to get through an episode or five I'd be all set.

Oh Frankel !

I was nearly organised this morning until you posted those! Just another minute looking, just another minute looking....

FrankelInFoal · 03/03/2014 07:39

There's too much too post! Go to Cumberbatchweb and just keep scrolling down! There's a 2 minute video from the red carpet (very poor sound quality) and I got very distracted by Benedict's PA's dress - now that is a low cut dress!

Wow, than man can wear a suit.
