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 don't think too much should be read into the lack of comment from family/friends, they may have been asked not to comment publicly. After all they've no obligation to.

I'm quite prepared to believe this could have started out as a "Friends with Benefits" situation and now they're making the best of it, but I do hope for both their sakes (and that of the baby) that they are very much in love.

Looking forward to the Golden Globes tomorrow, both in the hopes BC wins something but also to see SH and how pregnant she is or isn't. I'm predicting she can't wear a dress more hideous than last time Grin.

SciFiFan , you do realize that you are tempting fate with that last comment, right?

I read he was filming on Saturday so will be flying out today just in time for awards. Now that the news is out hopefully she wears something better than that quilt Grin

HRHsherlockssextoy · 11/01/2015 16:52

God that dress was awful.

Kiera who's prob a few weeks in front of herhas looked amazing throughout.

Or even better he turns up without her Wink

HRHsherlockssextoy · 11/01/2015 17:32

I have found a suitable dress for tonight

It's marchesa which is designed by wife of Harvey Weinstein so a winner all round

ColinFirthsGirth · 11/01/2015 19:33

HRH is it really bad that I quite like that Marchesa dress? If she turns up surely it will be in a much uglier dress then that?

Something like this maybe? I would also prefer she didn't turn up though

Sudename · 11/01/2015 21:02

The Marchesa one wouldn't be too bad without the net.
ColinFirths I'm speechless at that dress Grin

NeedsAGreenCardForFantasyLand · 11/01/2015 21:28

WTF is that Girth? Looks like a mop with legs - a reject from the warped mind of Jim Henson???

And Sudename, if I find similar fabric, I consider it a challenge to make a quilt more attractive than that THING she wore. (Shouldn't be too difficult, really)

Does anyone have a link to the whole clip of this?

I really want to turn off my Bullshit Detector, but it seems to be stuck in the "on" position whenever I read anything about those two. It's like they were given the task of proving those tiny percentage points of when two seemingly intelligent people use birth control and it fails.

what Vogue thinks Sophie should wear

ColinFirthsGirth · 11/01/2015 22:05

NeedsaGreencard I have watched that video. It is the only one available and it has been heavily edited. We don't get to hear the questions, just the voiceover. In all honesty he could have been saying anyone was beautiful.

I do feel abit suspcious that it has been edited in this way.

Sudename · 11/01/2015 22:09

full clip Needsagreencard

HRHsherlockssextoy · 11/01/2015 22:36

I quite like it we all feel the same.

In that clip Act
he was saying that I was beautiful....

He doesn't say her name much does he? The woman I'm going to marry. I don't think my husband has ever used my full name as well.

That marchesa gown would be ok not for all the net. That mop thing is totally her. Cool and edgy.

NeedsAGreenCardForFantasyLand · 11/01/2015 22:42

Thanks, Sudename! I'm going to check into FantasyLand and pretend that he was talking about his mum.

Girth that dress Shock I take it all back she could be in something more hideous.

I'm toying with the idea of staying up to see if she's with him. I've heard he's there and starting the red carpet but can't find a link myself, think it's all American TV and sites.

If I stay up too late though I'll regret it in the morning old fogey that I am

Sudename · 11/01/2015 22:59

I'm following the usual suspects on twitter for pics. No way I'm staying up past midnight work tomorrow

Sudename · 12/01/2015 00:43

on the red carpet

HRHsherlockssextoy · 12/01/2015 07:40

I'm disappointed that she didn't wear the things we had for her. Some stylist been at her.

He looked a bit weird with his tan dark slicked hair.

I prefer the curls or tiff batch.

Sudename · 12/01/2015 08:17

The hair is darker for the Sherlock special. I hate the slicked back look as I'm a big fan of the curls

NeedsAGreenCardForFantasyLand · 12/01/2015 08:20

Def. agree that she has someone different working on her look (perhaps the same people who rescued Benedict?). No bed head this time. I actually thought the dress was quite lovely.
