The BCAS - 221B or not 221B?

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.

Tom vs Benedict

on that selection it's a hard one to call but I think Benedict just pips Tom to the post.

Benedict looks better in that pic. However, I never think Tom looks that good in photos, but on screen and in the flesh he comes into his own.

RiverTam · 19/09/2014 16:18

aye, same with Richard Armitage, can never find any decent pics of him but he's Mr Hotter-than-Hot on screen.

OnlyLovers · 19/09/2014 16:27

Yes, I don't get the Armitage love but have only ever seen stills. I realise I need to reserve judgement unless or until I watch him in something. What things is he in anyway? He's one of those slebs who I only ever read and hear about; he never actually shows up on my radar.

RiverTam · 19/09/2014 16:37

North and South, The Hobbit (sexy dwarf!), he was in Spooks for a while but I missed him in that. Also just missed him on stage in The Crucible, dicked around for ages wondering whether to get tickets and then it was too late, tch!
Very, very sexy baritone voice. Apparently very shy in RL. I could bring him out of himself, oh yes.
He was top of my list until this year when BC came onto my radar.

OnlyLovers · 19/09/2014 16:50

Haven't seen any of those. I might look up North and South; it was one of those things I think I would've liked but didn't quite get round to.

I'd have liked to see The Crucible too – not for RA, obviously, but the production sounded really interesting. I just forgot about it and didn't get round to it and all the usual excuses!

Sudename · 19/09/2014 18:03

You have to watch North and South Onlylovers hubba hubba

Sudename · 19/09/2014 18:07

Richard Armitage

Richard Armitage The Crucible

OnlyLovers · 19/09/2014 18:09

OK, OK, I will. Grin

Sudename · 19/09/2014 18:13

We'll have to start thinking of a new thread title soon. .

NeedsAGreenCardForFantasyLand · 19/09/2014 20:05

Hair! And scruff!

RiverTam · 19/09/2014 20:14

I am absolutely not liking the scruff, slightly sad the curls have gone, extremely pleased the scruff has!

here's brooding North and South RA for Only.

Thread title? - this is all I can come up with:

The BCAS - Khan you kick it? Yes, you Khan!

referencing (badly) both Khan and Shere Khan and a dated bit of 80s hip hop for no real reason. It's pretty crap, but hopefully will inspire someone else to come up with something better, which shouldn't be hard.

A new one, I like the hair

I did see RA in the crucible. He was very.... Manly .Earthy and immense, if that makes sense.

The things he'd do to you

Dont mind the new hair too much but prefer the curls. OK, so trying to reference Richard III, The BCAS: The Batch! The Batch! Our kingdom for the Batch!

HRHsherlockssextoy · 19/09/2014 22:32

The BCAS: (now is the winter of our discontent) sherlock's back
(Now is the winter of our discontent) this fair son of cumberbatch

Filming is to start tomorrow

RiverTam · 21/09/2014 20:31

I have just googled the Ashridge Estate Blush. Please tell me I'm not the only one to do this? I can't see that I'm going to get up there for stalking purposes, unfortunately!

Cumberlover76 · 21/09/2014 21:57

Oohh exciting that he is filming at home for a while. Not sure where this pic is from but found on Tumblr and liked.
