Followup on Little Favour: Benedict + Adam.

If you haven't heard about Little Favour yet, here's my recap.  It's a short independent film being crowdfunded by the Cumbercollective.  Amazing and breathtaking response!

Six days left; do hop to it if you can help out, and remember -- spreading the word DOES count as helping out!!!

Sponsored by tumblr; Caitlin Moran's interview.

Since this is sponsored by tumblr, that should be the top, of course.  Courtesy of the lovely Emily, whose post provided the image from morphinetoasts.  Text for Ben's words here.

(Ben is not on Twitter.  Really.  I remember him saying this at the 2012 Cheltenham Lit Fest; it's written up at Radio Times as well.)

Don't have enough Cumberpics?  Go over to Cumberbatchedandproud, you'll find LOTS.  Enjoy her tags!

A moment in boredom, i.e., gun safety and Sherlock from thecutteralicia.

Have a morgue moment from Scandal, thanks to morphinetoasts, in fact.

And here is Caitlin Moran's latest (May 2013!) interview of Ben, which I have been dying to read, which was put on tumblr by cumbertrekky. The Times - What's not to Love About Benedict Cumberbatch.  [Link removed from tumblr; you'll have to buy it from The Times.]

Oh God:  "find my son..."!!!! I think I love Ben's mum too.  This is an interview for which John Watson would be using up every word possible.  You will too.  I love this interview.  Caitlin is the best ever!

The short film Little Favour.

Little Favour is the short film starring Benedict Cumberbatch and Nick Moran.

Indiegogo is where they're raising money for the indie film.  (It's a nonprofit.)  They smashed through their initial goal quickly -- huzzah, Cumbercollective!

If you want to pledge, you've got until 17-May-13, 11.59pm, Pacific Time.  They were at £65,600 last I saw.

Adam Ackland is one of the producers.  8)  If you watch his Twitter feed, he'll tell you when it's to be filmed [first week of June 2013] and where.

Do spread this around, if you please, on Twitter, tumblr, and to every Cumberfan you know.  Many thanks!

Three GREAT fan vids.

These are all from season 2. If you haven't seen the 2012 Sherlock, don't watch these now.  OTOH, I found two of them funny, and I hope you do also.

She is a fan vid goddess, I swear to you. This amazing vid, oh God!!

Odds are it will give you major feels.  But it's lovely.

WARNING: Do not eat or drink during this vid. If you're old enough to remember DW (no, not the Doctor), you may hurt yourself. I thought I'd hyperventilate, no joke.  Correction, this is s1 and s2.

I think this will make you laugh. I do realize I'm biased. 8)

Ben's interviews through 10-May-13.

Ben is interviewed on the Graham Norton show.  Links for parts 1/3 and 2/3 and 3/3 [now broken].  ETA 24-Oct-2014:  show link with Harrison Ford, Benedict, Jack Whitehall.

If you want to know other places to find Ben's interview this week, here's the schedule.  Thanks to my Tweep Nikki!

More setlock of various levels.

More setlock, in fact, that day when they were filming and the street was packed with fans.

NOW...  this is your chance to stop here.  Some of this may upset you, keep you up late, make you seek more setlock, spend hours on tumblr, and so on.  The most upsetting bit (for some fans) is at the end.



That guy.  You know... HIM.  Yeah, that guy.  That guy behind someone unexpected!

Someone dancing a jig.  Looks a little cold.  8)  I still love it.

I think Ben is showing off here, but maybe he's just messing with Martin.  I like the caption though.  :D  Plus deareje's tumblr is a major source of setlock, in case you're wondering.

A different view of our John during RF [done as fan art].  Hrm.

Pics and interviews.

Cumberbatched:  Clever Peter Guillam.  That villain in Trek.  Ben smiling in Murder Made Easy.  DAMN, those jeans...  Ben and James Rhodes.  8)

Recent Benedict Cumberbatch interview in The Sun.

Benedict Cumberbatch: My mum says I'm like Sherlock at Radio Times.

Sherlocked:  Gorgeous profile.  Sherlock doing a Look.

Fan art:  In the Yard.  Martin on The Hobbit.  Sherlock and the gun (The Pool).

In the season 2 and 3 zone, but (mostly) without spoilers:

Sherlocked:  No s3 spoilers, just Ben in costume [and sometimes in character] making faces.  Sherlock's eyebrow of disdain in Scandal (slightly spoilery).  At Baskerville, outside.

BBC poster for s3e1.  Contains no spoilers, just the ep title.

Fan art which will probably make you cry.
