Benedict Cumberbatch

Discuss everything Cumberbatch here!

I had not seen Benedict acting before Sherlock, I only sat down to watch it as it was the only thing on that Sunday night.... well I now think he is one of the best actors I've seen and I look forward to the next series.

Yes I had read the books long before I saw Cumberbatch's interpretation of Holmes, and I really enjoyed the show! I can not wait for the next ones to come out! Arent they making more? (Sorry I do not know any current information!) I also enjoy Benedict's last name I think it is fun and difficult to say!

Yes. they are making more. Should be out in the fall of this next... I mean, this new year. See what I did there? Haha. I saw Benedict, and I was like, he is brilliant, so now it's my quest to watch almost everything that he's in. I saw Amazing Grace and nearly died crying when his character died. It was horrible. Ah well. You get used to it. Reading the books as we speak though. It's amazing how well Benedict is doing, how he's made Sherlock his and I know what I'm talking about because I myself am in the acting business when I'm not busy being an actor. So... It's brilliant. I love him. I might be just a tad bit... Obsessed with him.

Wow You are an acttor! That is so cool! I have acted in school and church plays, and had fun. Are you a stage or a TV/Movie actor?
Ill have to check out the other movies he is in, they sound good!

Nothing yet. Mostly stage. Actually, I'm still in school. I only say that because I've been participating in the school plays. Does that still count? I think it does if I'm pursuing it. I want to be a tv actor too, but the stage is where it's all at. Oh. It's beautiful.

Awesome Hana! Can't wait to see you on tv! Any particular kind of show you'd like to be in?

That sounds like what I do. I love to act as well! I used to act in more shows, but now I am in the IB proram at school which means I dont have extra time!

That'll be me next year! OH JOY! Actually, I'm kind of excited. Heh heh heh. That might be a little bit bad of me.

I'm going to see Benedict Cumberbatch in Frankenstein (playing Victor) this April, so ridiculously excited for it!

I am extremely jealous of you. Not even fair. My mum got mad at me cause I asked if I could go see it and she said no because I don't live there and I don't have any money to go see it. They better tape it so I can see it.

Ah well, I live only a short train ride away from London, so I suppose it's rather easier for me! But they are showing it in cinemas for those who can't get to London... it says here in this article that 'Frankenstein’ is in preview at the National Theatre, London SE1 (020 7452 3000) from Feb 5. As part of National Theatre Live the production will be broadcast live to cinemas in the UK and around the world on March 17.... so maybe it'll be at a cinema near you? Even if it's not, I reckon that if it's in cinemas there's a chance they might make a DVD of it... no idea really.

All I can do now is hope it's in the theatres near me. Hahaa. Maybe I can convince my mum to take me. After all, I am trying to watch everything Cumberbatch starting this week. Hahah.

Haha same!! I have a post-it-note on my computer desktop with a list of things to watch.... Murder Is Easy (seen it already but didn't realise he was in it), The Last Enemy, Small Island and Fortysomething (seen one episode, so funny). Already watched Atonement xD Oh and I also want to see Nightwatching and Breaking and Entering because they have Martin Freeman in ;D
