The BCAS: "The Batch, The Batch, My Kingdom for The Batch

[NeedsAGreenCardForFantasyLand]

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!

If they are filming Sherlock in January - his hair still isn't very long...short haired Sherlock...not right.

Cumberbaby Rumors?

I'm surprised it's taken this long for the rumours to surface Cumberlover

I'm torn between being a 'sensible married mother of two grown up' and driving up there right now and hanging out on the barricades around the Guild Hall like a squeezing fan girl.

SciFI, I took DD and her friends after school today but he'd already left. They said he'll be filming there again tomorrow. Arriving at 8am and possibly there until 7pm, unless he leaves early again. Though he'll be filming inside so you'll only see him on the way in/out and possibly at lunchtime.

You'd see him if you were there when he came out. You can get quite close to the trucks and there are only low barriers. I'm going back tomorrow after 4, but armed with gloves and a flask this time as it's freezing.

More lovely pics

Hope you're lucky tomorrow chica

Thanks chica good to know. Can't go today so will have to hope he's still there tomorrow. Good luck later.

Oooh lovely pics Sude

Cumberbuddy has the film of the Hollywood Reporter interview that goes with that group pic, Sude, as well as a magazine version. Sorry, I can't link to it but I really enjoyed it - it's nearly 50 minutes long though so be sure to have some time or skip the less interesting bits

I shall watch it when alone this evening ??

We missed him again today as he'd left early. He'll be there tomorrow from 8am and until 4pm at the latest. Then they're packing up and leaving Winchester.

Just in from Marvel. He's to play Dr Strange

Sorry you didn't see him chica . Will pick up the baton today! Aiming to get to Winchester about 10.30 and can be there til about 2.15 though I do actually have some shopping to do so won't be hanging out on the barriers the whole time .

Wish me luck.

Great news re Dr Strange!

So here I am reporting in. Good news is I saw him . Two sightings one possible (see photo) one definite, no photo.

Got there about 11ish as they were taking a break. I was the only fan there a lot of the time which was a bit embarrassing .

When I saw him the first time I got these photos, he had earphones in and was drinking a coffee (or similar). He never turned round though and went straight back in so I never saw his face. What do you think - is it him?

I heard they would be having lunch about 1.00 so came back soon after. About 20 mins later he suddenly walks back to the door, turns around to point and smile at someone who must have spoken to him and then he was gone. It was so fast I didn't get chance to take a pic but can confirm he was sans wig and gorgeous .

I stated til just after 2.00 but no more sightings, then I had to leave. Today is the last day of filming (in Winchester) so no more chances .

Am now trying to warm my feet back up and calm down.

Ah that's great scififan
How tall does he appear

The guy he's talking to was on a higher step. He did seem tall enough and right build. Gut feeling was that it was him, I just didn't see his face to confirm.

Yay SciFi! I reckon that's him, looks like his head in 2nd one. Very jealous you've seen him for real!!!!! Sweet dreams

oh, how exciting, SciFi, glad you had more luck than me! That does look like him, insofar as I can tell from the back - hair looks right. Nice to see him without his RIII frightwig!

It looks like him. Fab!

He's in Twitter answer questions again. I think today but the Twitter is in la, and he's meant to be at some awards on Sunday.

I can't see how or why you would go to LA for a Twitter Q&a

He's in LA tonight for a TIG screening and Q and A after. He's also supposed to be at the Variety awards on Sunday evening in London! Am tired after typing that.

Because it's now officially winter I give you FinlandBatch

Snap HRH didn't see your post - that tends to happen when I'm posting from my phone :(

All hail FinlandBatch -- all the more fun to unwrap...

Wanted to share . I know it has nothing to do with Benedict, but it's been a rather crap week on this end, and this seemed so relevant. Oh, and it's quite NSFW, so cover the kids' (and pets') ears.

Love it Needs
(I'm in a choir and going to suggest this number for our Xmas concert )

DH played me that the other day. I love it! There were plenty of Christmas c u next Tuesdays about this weekend!

Lovely picture from the People magazine shoot
