Maybe you already saw the new Cumberbomb?  8)  Silvia has the full video version on her tumblr.

I was lucky, I decided to watch the awards and got to see this happen.  As soon as I saw the North Korean spoof-skit go over to Meryl Streep, I could tell exactly what Ben was gonna do.  (Vine slo-mo version in this Tweet.)

Films, 'cupcakes, and more!

Christmas cheer is already here for some fans.  :D  Want goodies?  Have a bunch!

News from Marvel and James Bond -- vids from Penguins and The Hobbit -- the Oscars and interviews... plus Cumbercupcakes.  Make sure you tip over the stocking and get everything out, now; it's pretty full.

Official news from Marvel:  Benedict will play Doctor Strange.

His Doctor Strange Cumbercupcake.  Check out People's "The 'Cumbercupcake' Exists" and THR's See Benedict Cumberbatch and Tom Hiddleston as Cupcakes if you haven't seen Pei's work yet.

Anglo Quarterfinals; HFA awards and TIG!

See how many celebrity impersonations #BenedictCumberbatch can do in a minute. The #ImitationGame. http://t.co/XnHbpSB78q

The Imitation Game is out in the UK as of 14-Nov-14, and will be out soon -- elsewhere on 28-Nov-14.  (I'm finding mixed messages, some say that TIG is out in the USA on 21st, some the 28th, so check your local listings.)

And The Imitation Game got four Hollywood Film Awards!

The GN Show... kinda?

Well, I thought the Graham Norton Show would be up by now... it is.  Sort of.

That's if you live in the BBC One viewing area.  Through 31-Oct-2014, btw.

Cabin Pressure's Zürich: where?

I'd like to complain about how Cabin Pressure's Zurich is being sold.

Or not sold, as the case may be.  It was difficult to find except at Amazon UK; plus Amazon owns Audible now.  Meaning you may (or may not) get Zurich.

I'm a little cynical since I ordered series 4 twice from Amazon, but never got it. (Despite refunds, I wanted my show a year ago.  Grrrr.)

Interviews Martin, Rupert -- Babes' s4 predictions.

Let's talk about Martin.  These are all 2014 interviews.  Expect s3, Richard III, Fargo, and Gollum.  Because all those go together... okay, maybe not.

If you haven't read Martin's Shakespeare invented Gollum interview over at the Telegraph, you should.

Why Martin Freeman Pretended His Wallet was Stolen at His ‘Sherlock’ Audition at BBC America.

Mark Gatiss interviews Martin Freeman at Radio Times.


As for Sherlock s4, remember not to trust what our friendly writer =cough= trolls say, despite things like this at the Telegraph (s3 spoilers in link and title).  Wait until we're in setlock.

From Cumbercake to Cumberclay.

The answer. This man deserves a medal for everything he does. Just. #BenedictCumberbatch pic.twitter.com/LAEGgVb5HP

Have some Cumbercupcakes to go with that, a little SmaugBatch and... cute Sherlock with violin.  Of course.

Grab-bag: All sorts of things.

Ooooh, more Study in Pink speculation!

Poor Mycroft.  It really was not a shining moment for the Holmes brothers, was it?  Never try to outdo your brother... either brother!  It never ends well.

"Sibling rivalry... now we're getting somewhere."


Missing John Watson?  Here's a link to some promo s1 pics of Martin as John.  8)

Buzzfeed interview's title is misleading, as it has very little about Benedict; but if you're interested in what's behind the writing of the Turing biopic, you'll be fascinated.  I was.

And here's more lovely promo pics of s3 via deareje (and Lokke)!

King of the Internet...

Pure bonus:  The Cumberbatch special, or as Buzzfeed calls it-- 37 Times In 2013 Benedict Cumberbatch Proved He Was King Of The Internet.

— The Hobbit (@TheHobbitMovie) December 3, 2013

Because let's face it.  If you're here, you wanted to lose hours of your life that involved Benedict Cumberbatch, didn't you?

Of course you did!


Be gentle with the Internet tomorrow, Benedict... oh, hell.  You know and I know that Ben presenting at the Oscars is gonna crash things.  (ALL the things!)  Say goodnight, Gracie.

UK viewers can watch the Oscars at Sky Movies Oscars Sunday night, per Cumberbatchweb.

That link also has some pictures of Zurich -- the final recording of Cabin Pressure.  Here's Radio Times' account of the recording.

P.S.  There are NO spoilers for Sherlock s3 nor Cabin Pressure inside either link.  Both Buzzfeed and Cumberbatchweb play fair.  8)

Change of pace via tumblr.

No s3!  Instead, some goodies from Sherlockian tumblr.  8)

Canon Fodder Friday.  Because if you haven't read the original Sherlock Holmes stories, you're missing... well, okay, SOME are treats.

This one, mm, not exactly.  "A Case of Identity" does end with something of note.  Don't read that until/unless you have indeed read the whole story.

(I lied, actually "A Case of Identity" does appear in s3.  But if you blink, you'll miss it.)

But if you'd like a silly version of various original stories, Final Problem will oblige you.  "The Adventure of the Gloria Scott" had me in stitches:  or, the Soldier for the win!

Although her annotations for TBC -- do not read if you haven't read that story either! -- are killing me.  I just reread that story myself.

Radio Times, s3 spoilers, s4...

Radio Times wants to update you on Sherlock s3 -- and s4.  Here's a quick gleaning of some of their recent articles.  8)

Season 4:  early?

Quote shirt and tumblr: HLV again.

If you click links, you WILL find s3 spoilers.  

S3 reviews of TEH: spoilers!

Well, okay, one thing that isn't a s3 spoiler.  Consider this candy.  8)

This Hiddleston vs. Cumberbatch Dance-Off Holds the Key to Inner Peace

Psst, remember, if you can live stream ep 1, 

The Empty Hearse is on BBC One at 9pm GMT!  

Yes, today, 3-Jan-2014.

Be aware that BBC One says Sherlock's on BBC Three.  But the two channels link back and forth to each other.  So be sure to check up early if you're doing a live stream.

Immortal words: "Get to work on that, internet."

And they were written by none other than Benedict Cumberbatch himself.

I kid you not.  Go thee and look up his Reddit AMA chat; here's the synopsis at Geekiary.  Expect to find plenty of sass and also his trademark intelligence.

Yes, the little picture really says:  "Hi Reddit! Ask me... anything...?!? X"

I made the picture extra large so you could read that, but just in case you cannot, it's deliberate.  8)

"Wait, what people?"

How the Sherlock fandom has been feeling as of 1-Sept-2013.  Or maybe it's been all of 2013... or during s3 filming... or since the finale of s2.  So many choices!

Ohhhh right.  Like that's gonna happen!

In all seriousness, I'm glad to be part of the SH fandom.  Met lots of great people that I'm very happy to have in my life.  Likely a good thing I didn't formally join the Tweep version until s2 aired -- less wear and tear on my family and local friends.  A shame none of them are fangirls/fanboys though!

Cumberbatched, fan art, and...

Cumberbatched:  Have to pause.  So cuddly.  For English Journal.  Fallen because of [redacted] in The Last Enemy.

MORE Cumberbatched:  This one from Esquire November 2013 is tagged NSFW [not safe for work] so beware!  There's an iTunes link for Esquire UK here.


Sherlock fan art:  Not the Johnlock you're looking for.  When Sherlock's relaxing.  Really the Johnlock you wanted.  From The Woman, a little warning.

Top girl: Olivia Poulet interview [you'll remember her from Blind Banker, yes].

Is there enough setlock? Nah.

Ben has literally got the ':|' face in the bag and the others except Martin are just well... #Sherlock pic.twitter.com/kyPYxaBqyB

Safelock:  *Waiting for series 3 to air*  Amanda and Benedict.

A moment of anti-setlock.  Be careful, the pic might upset you.

Must be ep 1, the boys in their coats, turning heads to glance...

Setlock monochrome art!

Setlock:  SH surrounded by... ahem.  John as his usual self (or is he?) and Sherlock, not so much.  From That Guy, Sherlock is getting WHAT?

It's That Guy.  Again.  What's he doing in ep1??

Fan vids and dancing.
