The BCAS: It was the best of times, it was the worst of times

[NeedsAGreenCardForFantasyLand]

A place for Cumberbatch fans to band together whilst waiting for DorkyBatch to return.

I look back with fondness, of the fact that it was sdcc and had the most lovely pics. Wimbledon made up fir it. Sigh.
I hope you are all well

No pics of baby yet? Sorry for my absence, I've been watching the tour de France in Paris, has been amazing. Returning home tomorrow :( back to catching up with the batch!

Apparently there is going to be some Hamlet stuff (interviews, maybe pics?) in this week's Sunday Times.

I got tickets for Hamlet .........faints

Hi ladies. Hope ye are all well. Anyone going to the opening night on Wednesday?

Controversy raging on Twitter, it seems some journalists have taken it upon themselves to review last night's performance despite it generally being the case the previews are not reviewed. That's what the official opening night is for.

Just booked to see NT Live in the cinema on 29th October. Not sure if it's a live show, but is in 4k ultra HD (whatever that is!)

I'm also going to the NT Live. 18th October for me and can't wait after hearing the initial reports. Sounds very intreaging. A few pap shots around at the moment. He still looks quite thin....I'm waiting for the Dr Strange bulk up but can't see it happening whilst he's spending three hours a day on stage.

Is anyone going to see it for real? Would have loved to, but cinem a is good. I saw a live opera that way and was really good.

Coming from Ireland in October to see it with teenage dd. Coincidentally she'll be doing Hamlet for her Leaving Cert (A Levels).
Can't wait to see it either

So I see Benedict has had to ask that people stop filming Hamlet

Daily Mash

I'm off to see it on August 29th

I will report back

I'm going 3rd September, very excited indeed, he looks damned fine from what I've seen on Tumblr.

Hello chaps, finally got around to watching The Imitation Game last night. As good as I'd expected and such a sad story.

Wow, this thread really has died a death if we can't even muster any enthusiasm to discuss his Hamlet press night .

I'm glad he himself is getting good reviews although it sounds like the director and supporting cast are being criticised. I didn't think he looked very happy on the night although his suit looked good. He seems happier when he's doing stage door.

I saw this pic recently and it reminded me how good he can look when he's happy and healthy...enjoy!

Yes, it's so quiet here these days

The reviews do seem quite mixed, though as you say it's the rest of the cast/production that seem to be coming in for the most criticism.

Hello all, not bothered to log in for a while coz of all the Jeffrey shit so not posted. Read some of the reviews and agree, sems his performance is great but bit of criticism for the production. I look forward to seeing it though, albeit in the cinema. Anyone been for real yet? I like the pics, hair is looking nice. Wonder how cumberbaby is getting on, must be tough performing everyday with a young baby. Hope he's happy.

I saw this and remembered this thread, meet Legobatch!

Hmm, loses a certain something, viper!

It's the hands isn't it? They look like baby octopus (octopi?)

Mmm stage door pics are catching my interest. That shirt and neck! I may need to lie down for a bit to recover

Mmm nice SciFi, he's looking pretty lovely.

Be warned there's a hint of a toned belly in this one. But damn I hope he got a good nights sleep as he looks knackered.

According to The Fail baby is called Christopher Carlton Cumberbatch and was born June 1st.
