Congrats: Ben's engaged!

Benedict Cumberbatch and Sophie Hunter are engaged.  Isn't that wonderful?  So happy for them both.  (The Telegraph has a shorter piece here.)

MTV says Benedict Cumberbatch Is Engaged, So Why Is The Internet Still Working?

A sampling of Tweets... along with the NY Post's Twitter reacts to Benedict Cumberbatch's engagement.  Which is not how everyone's taking it, but hey, they want to focus on unhappy weeping, then that's their choice.  Bustle is surprised by tumblr's reaction.

Anglo Fan Favorites 2014... and sex.

"32 British celebrities, five rounds, one winner" at BBC America... Will Tom Hiddleston win again?

All 16 matches for Round 1.  Plus a LOT of fandoms are represented.  I'm mentioning Team Sherlock, which includes The Hobbit too, along with Star Trek.  :)

The Graham Norton Show!

The Graham Norton Show - s16x5 - Benedict Cumberbatch, Miranda Hart, Timothy Spall and Maroon 5:  Part 1 and Part 2.

Thanks to my Tweep for alerting me that it was up at last for folks outside the BBC area!  Check out BBC America for those of you with a TV handy.

Halloween should mean more candy, but I wasn't able to blog that day.  Have some deleted scenes from s3 instead.  :D

Do avoid these vids if you haven't yet seen s3, definite spoilers inside!

Frankenstein: NTL encore!

For this week, you can find more encore screenings of the National Theatre Live's Frankenstein.  With Benedict and Jonny Lee Miller as, respectively, the Creature or Victor each night.

Possibly longer, but be sure to check!

This may be just in North America, so check your area.

FYI, the show came out in 2011 and will probably not be on DVD.  But the NTL has done encore screenings more than once now.  So have hope!

Last November one of my Tweeps got to see the show, both versions; see the link for her review.  :D

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.

Unfortunately, the vid isn't up... yet.  But I expect it will be.  Give BBC One time.

I'll post the show vid when I find it.  :D

(ETA:  The show airs on BBC One Friday night, 24-Oct-2014, at 10.35pm BST.)
