The BCAS - 221B or not 221B?

[RiverTam]

a thread for those who have had their lives ruined by the charms of one Mr Benedict Cumberbatch. Come and share with those who really understand what it's like to live with this burden.

Some classics to get us in the mood.

have you got a link, HRH - just done a quick google and all that keeps coming up is Tom H what a blow.

oh! Just found it, that was brilliant, how camp was he at the end!

Hope Sir Ian does it!

just watched a better quality video of Tom H - just stopping flapping your T-shirt and giving us a quick flash of your abs, man!

I hadn't seen this video of Benedict reading a letter from Iggy Pop at the Hay Festival - could he wiggle his arse just a bit more???

Wiggle away Benedict -

I was there when he did that wiggle.

Iggy was my favourite. I can't put my finger on it, even though I'd like to, as why.

Luke Evans was gay, now he has a girlfriend. Not sure if that makes him bi or now straight or just in the closet. Again. I do like him though.

I thought he was gay - I mean I'd read that, I have no gaydar to speak of (this is the person who watched all 5 series of Heroes without realising Zachary Quinto was gay, ditto Torchwood and John Barrowman which is really embarrassing ).

at 'I can't put my finger on it'.

I've read that too, but then again if you look hard enough you can find at least one website swearing blind that ANYONE is gay.

Adam Ackland has just tweeted "Chill your boots... It's coming!"

I'm taking that to mean we will have a video very shortly

squeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!

A very good friend of Bens rivertam
SQUEE!

I believe BC is godfather to Adam Ackland's son. That very cute picture of BC holding a baby - the baby is one of Adam's kids. Adam is also a producer/writer and was involved in Little Favour.

Breaking News: Benedict spotted at the National theatre last night with a pretty blonde. He was wearing a black leather jacket and supposedly they sped off afterwards on the back of his motorcycle

The last time he was "spotted with a pretty blonde" it was his niece

he is

I'm not a fan of the sneaky photos I have to say. Everyone deserves some privacy and as Andrew Scott said in a recent interview, they know when you're trying to take a sneaky photo on public. If you want one, just ask!

I agree but he is looking mighty fine though. Wonder what he's filming at the moment

Thought we might all need this

Love that WallinoMio

Mmmmmm leather jacket and those jeans. Is it just me who finds the idea of him on a motorbike really, really hot!

[grin, that is spot on Wallino!

agree, don't like the sneaky photos (or the leather jacket, tbh, though the idea of him straddling a motorbike...) but he still looked damned fine.

I agree about sneaky photos. I also don't like fans approaching people and asking for autographs/pictures –or, even worse, NOT asking and just taking a pic. Lauren Laverne said recently it made her feel like she was being Shazammed.

It's really intrusive. I'd never approach someone when they were 'off duty'. In that pic Benedict looks as though he's desperately trying to blend in.

Adam Ackland had tweeted again:

"Sorry chaps...slight hiccup, it is coming... And will be worth waiting for"

I'm getting very excited

Just to answer someone up thread - have just seen Mourinho nominate James McAvoy on the ALS challenge.
