THE meeting place for those smitten with Benedict Cumberbatch. As one of the members put it: Hump, limp and bad wig - but we'd still hit it.

Pile on in, there's always room for one more!

I'll keep you ladies in mind... Wink

I do wish he'd ditch the specs, though. I know I'm in the minority, but since I've worn prescription eyewear since I was 8, I get a little annoyed at people who wear them solely for fashion (probably because I can never find ones I like that don't cost the same as a down payment on a house). And the ones he's sporting remind me of Woody Allen -- ICK.

That said, if it were to come out that he needs them due to "advanced age"...

I've seen tumblr's where they have proved that they are prescription lenses because of the super distortion that true lenses give

Anyway he was in tumblr this evening talking about penguins. I can't work out whether he was funny or just weird

And warhorse was on, which I've seen the play and read the book never seen the film all the way through.

I cried and I don't cry at films :(

HRH: Funny or weird? Probably a happy mixture of both!

BC impressions

Some really good impressions from Mr C. Brightened up my morning..

RiverTam · 17/11/2014 12:23

they're very good. Peter Bradshaw rates them on the Guardian, I think he's a bit harsh only giving Bane 2/5!

HRHsherlockssextoy · 17/11/2014 22:40

New pic. He looks lovvvely but it's creepy pic. The feel of it is wrong, as if his fans are about 14 and he doesn't want to be there

Tbh it's the vibe he's giving off at the moment

I get the impression HRH that he wants rid of the more extreme fans from certain articles I've read

SciFiFan · 18/11/2014 07:24

Its almost like he wants to run away Grin. I like the close up pic though, nice but if neck and chest.

Bit of not but if.......

Sudename · 18/11/2014 07:54

Ben and Sophie at NY premier last night

RiverTam · 18/11/2014 08:52

those pics looked photoshopped to me.

Went to see it last night, really enjoyed it.

Cumberlover76 · 18/11/2014 09:54

They look good together. It's nice to see them appearing as a couple.

He does look hot in those pics HRH but I don't like the suggestion that all of his fans are screaming teenage girls. I suppose there are a fair few. I know were are pretty obsessive, but there are some that are much, much worse.

It does seem like he wants to escape a bit of that. Don't blame him really.

HRHsherlockssextoy · 18/11/2014 10:58

Apparently the girls were photoshopped in. I liked the interview though and he looked fab in the photos

RiverTam · 18/11/2014 11:06

what's the interview, HRH?

I was browsing in WHS on the way home last night, picked up the Radio Times as he was on the front page and went straight into a rehashed interview from another magazine (the one with the comment about the 'florals'). Lazy, RT, lazy!

FrankelandFilly · 18/11/2014 11:33

Wotcha everyone, I'm still lurking and drooling over the pics you're all posting when I get the chance.

I don't think those of us on here are obsessive fans. After the vitriol aimed towards BC and Sophie from some "fans" in recent weeks, I'm not surprised Jed want shot of them! There are some craaaaazzzzy folk out there Hmm

FrankelandFilly · 18/11/2014 11:33

No idea why autocorrect decided I wanted "Jed" instead of "he'd" Blush

HRHsherlockssextoy · 18/11/2014 13:47

There was an interview that went with the new pics tam for New York magazine, I think

He talks about drinking shots and stuff, the happier him in tiff

RiverTam · 18/11/2014 14:14

yes, good article. I'm still not sure I agree with his take on Sherlock's love life!

Is it me or is his hair in the TIG pics with Sophie just a wee smidge longer, hmmm?

Sudename · 18/11/2014 14:47

The hair is coming along nicely rivertam but will it be long enough by January - that's the 6 million dollar question

mkmjimmy · 18/11/2014 15:43

Smidgen longer...just a smidge.

Sudename · 18/11/2014 17:57

Lovely picture from DuJour magazine

Cumberlover76 · 18/11/2014 18:43

Ooops, DH just let on he found my cumberporn stash on my google drive! Blush Forgot it was in the shared bit. He's OK, thinks its funny.

Nice pics. Is there a link to the New York article? I did a brief search but couldnt find it.

Sudename · 18/11/2014 22:00

Article from Fast Company

SciFiFan · 19/11/2014 07:41

Not sure when or where this was taken but I like it.
