Benedict Cuminmysnatch just kissed a woman after breaking through her window.
I never have anything nice happen like that to me.

There's a quote by a Tumblr blogger (Cumberlord I think) which sums it up: "you don’t decide to like Benedict Cumberbatch, it just happens and one day you wake up to a cardboard cut out of him lying next to you and wonder how you got here." Grin

That kiss was rather good though wasn't it? I also liked the way he looked at Moriarty just before they moved in to kiss.

I've watched the Sherlock Molly clip a few bazillion times today Grin

DS1 has been asking all day if he can watch Sherlock. I shall let him I suppose but I will simply have to watch it with him

Thurlow · 02/01/2014 17:47

Masterfulness is the perfect way to describe it
"I want to kiss you, goddammit, and I shall!"

Still weak at the knees at the thought of it

Coumarin · 02/01/2014 17:51

Oh. I hadn't noticed the hair ruffle the first time. Blush

Sweet Jesus.

merryxmasyafilthyanimal · 02/01/2014 17:55

Don't like the guy at all or find him in the least bit attractive but the kiss looked gooood!

prettypleasewithsugarontop · 02/01/2014 18:08

Envy fucking love him Grin

Lottapianos · 02/01/2014 18:11

Totally agree LetUsPrey. I used to think you lot were a bunch of freaks, couldn't see what the fuss was at all. Then I saw him host HIGNFY and got the thunderbolt. And then watched the first two series of Sherlock and it was Oh Dear God Have Mercy!

TheSporkforeatingkyriarchy · 02/01/2014 18:22

YABVU. Just, no, I do not understand other than because so many media sources give him airtime. He reminds me of mayo. And his little speech about Julian Assange being 'picked on for being posh' rather than for the sexual assault charges and by governments and corporations generally not liking people who publish their secrets fro any background made him even less endearing (though not as bad as Martin Freeman and his rape "joke").

Littlegreyauditor · 02/01/2014 20:04

I am not usually an appreciator of BC, other than in Sherlock of course, however it was a manly and masterful snog and I am now seriously impressed by his lovely arse thanks to JuiceOrtiz 's link.

It is a very nice arse.

IHaveSeenMyHat · 02/01/2014 20:09

He skates along this fine line of being a bit odd looking and completely fucking beautiful.

He has the most perfect Cupid's bow I've ever seen on any human being.

FrankelInFoal · 02/01/2014 20:23

Like this IHaveSeenMyHat? Wink

LetUsPrey · 02/01/2014 22:15

Re the OP.

What? Like this?

I'll be in my bunk.

NewGirlInTown · 02/01/2014 22:42

I am baffled.
He looks totally gay
Effete, at the very least.

awastingamanger · 02/01/2014 22:51

RoseRedder, I love bookmarks.

iklboo · 02/01/2014 23:00

Not for me, thanks. There's something....lizard like about him.

MrsJohnHarrison · 02/01/2014 23:55

I thought I recognised some names on here from the Sleb Twaddle thread mentioned earlier...
Evening BCASers Grin

Nombrechanger · 03/01/2014 00:05

LetUsPray - Thanks. I was sat there mesmerised watching that.

I'm still feeling really jealous. Envy

My DH has benefitted this evening from me having watched that clip 100 times

Wink

I didn't know there was a whole thread to indulge on, I shall pop over!

steff13 · 03/01/2014 04:07

I'd shave for Sherlock.

I want this on a t-shirt.

I don't find Benedict Cumberbatch traditionally attractive, but as Sherlock there is just something about him. He could kiss me like that all day long.

FrankelInFoal · 03/01/2014 07:23

steff13, he's not conventionally attractive but he just has "something". He has amazing eyes that seem to change colour, cheekbones you could carve ham on, beautiful lips and my god have you noticed his hands Wink

LetUsPrey · 03/01/2014 08:05

I Don't Shave For Sherlock t-shirt now available from the BBC Shop Grin

I'm trying to think of a way I can watch the video at work today (at lunchtime before anyone starts saying you should be working, etc etc). YouTube is blocked and personal Internet use is a big no anyway. Don't have 3G (or whatever it is) on my iPad. I shall have to approach it as having something extra to look forward to when I get home

waterlego6064 · 03/01/2014 10:16

Ah, hello like-minded people.

OH looked at me and laughed when we saw that bit on the show- I was agog.

The way he looks at her when his hands are heading towards her face seems to say 'I want to get in you'. Oh, to be looked at like that by BC.

I can't stop watching this clip and it's making me feel like a teenager.

GhostsInSnow · 03/01/2014 10:19

He does have a lovely arse.

A few years ago he did Frankenstein on stage, a role which required him to be nakey for the first half hour. Dear reader I have tried for several months to find a covertly take photo of the Cumbercock but alas I have not been successful.

FWIW I'd shave for Sherlock. EVERYTHING.

FrankelInFoal · 03/01/2014 10:49

There are lots of CumberBum pictures out there on t'interweb, but alas no frontal views.

I saw the NT Live screening of Frankenstein last year, but sadly they'd put him in a loin cloth Sad

GhostsInSnow · 03/01/2014 10:56

Frankel, i think the disappointment registered on my face when he wore that loincloth. Sad
Another of life's many disappointments.
