No need to be poetic! Someone also posted a photo of Ben in a purple suit. I think it's in "Favourite photos..." Take a look.

Have you seen the t-shirts, etc. at redbubble.com? One of them available in purple, of course, says something like "Benedict, I hope you never find a shirt that fits."

I see att least on my monitor, your signature is in purplish shades -- a purplish blue  and a pinkish purple.

Thanks veecee, I will definitely take a look. Still got lots of exploring to do here so there's a lot I haven't seen yet, but definitely a lot of good stuff here...

Haven't seen the t-shirts yet but I've made a note of the website so I can check it out later...might get some Christmas ideas there... 

The bbcode colors I used are actually listed as cornflower blue and pale violet red...there are also a few actual purple colors I hope to try out on another quote I want to add to my signature..

Here I found (thanks tobe) some more cumberfingers from 2010... obviously nothing went wrong... 

I was nervous he was going to cut himself!

Did I just hear him do an impersonation of Alan Rickman in that video?

He did get a bit close with that knife...

Yes, that was an Alan Rickman impersonation...I've heard him do 1 or 2 others as well, he's actually not bad

His hands really are beautiful, his fingers look so long and graceful. But of course, everything about Benedict is amazing, not only the hands

I totally agree...

nice!

Not sure if this is where this post belongs, so feel free to move it if it belongs elsewhere. Anyway...

Maybe I'm being silly, but I think Benedict has beautiful hands (and the rest of him is nice, too).

OK, rising to the challenge and hoping not to offend anyone...

My husband enjoys Sherlock, but is not obsessed -- and certainly not with the purple shirt. However, he cannot resist a rhyme challenge:

A consulting detective from London
Was a sight to give even a nun fun
In his purple shirt
He had no need to flirt
Oh my, if that shirt should come undone!

And here's my own rhyme-cheater contribution

That purple shirt fits him so nicely
I find I must look at him twice-ly
When the world starts to BORE
I'll look just once more
And thus I'll enjoy myself thrice-ly.

lol...love it!

If you like, you can go to "Meet the Members" and "Tell us what part of the world you come from."

Thanks, veecee. I actually did that the same day I "registered". I had a couple of minor glitches, so hopefully my response was accepted. But just in case, I'm in the state of Illinois in US.

Welcome! I'm a Sherlock girl, too, as are many of us. You really will have some fun here, I'm sure.

So, may I ask, are you Welsh?

Thanks veecee! To answer your question, no, I am not Welsh, though I wouldn't object to being so!

welcome patricia!!  I love your username.   you'll have loads of fun,  here with us crazy sherlockians.   I mean,   we're crazy-silly,  for all things  SHERLOCK.

Thank you, and thank you, sherlockskitty! I tried to come up with a username that would show how much I really, really like this program, especially since I wasn't sure if I was going to like a "modern-day" Sherlock (I grew up watching Basil Rathbone as Sherlock). But I was hooked within the first 15 minutes of the first episode.
