He looked like an excited child trying to contain himself. And it's so rare to see this level of excitement in him so it's very endearing.

Morning all
Sat up far too late watching the movie Milk last night - what better way to ease into the day than looking at Ben being all suave

It's that little sort of swallow he does when he's trying to contain his nerves that gets me
Just makes me want to scoop him up and cuddle him gosh, I'm obsessed by this man!

Speaking of which, I'm curious as to which role/episode/scene made you fall head over heels for Ben?

I think for me it was more a gradual thing. I liked him from the moment I first saw him in Sherlock, but it took series 3 to make me into a fan. Also had to do with the fact that there was quite a lot of Benedict exposure in a short period of time around this Dec/Jan, with The Hobbit, Sherlock, 12 Years and the mind-blowing performance in the Frankenstein play I saw in January. Plus, this very forum might have also played a role.

I so wish I'd seen Frankenstein

TeeJay · March 9, 2014 9:32 am

I was honestly kicking myself after the cinema screening that I had missed the chance to see it live on stage. Because I'm sure that would have been even more intense. Maybe there will be more cinema screenings at some point, Tinks.

Tinks · March 9, 2014 9:34 am

I'm really keeping my fingers crossed, Teejay - I've watched the YouTube clip of the making of it and it looks fantastic.

Our cinema sometimes shows theatre productions from London, I pray they do Frankenstein - it looks SO good!

Still cannot get over the VF pic....still.....

clareiow · March 9, 2014 9:39 am

Just..... *sigh*

rebeccaholmes · March 9, 2014 9:42 am

Oh Clare, that image is beautiful!

Cutie.

Tinks · March 9, 2014 9:45 am

God, if someone shoved a camera that close up to my face, I'd look a wreck!
How does he look so good???

clareiow · March 9, 2014 9:55 am

Rebecca....isn't it? So so yummy!

Tinks - He was just born handsome, you can't buy that!

For anyone wanting to listen to Ben's voice all day, go find Quest channel NOW. He's narrating Stephen Hawking's Universe on Hawking's behalf. Yummy.

Tinks · March 9, 2014 10:18 am

Thanks Clare - am recording it

clareiow · March 9, 2014 10:32 am

It's very interesting too, actually. Helps the person narrating has a voice like velvet ;)

clareiow · March 9, 2014 11:08 am

Please tell me you've all seen this?

Well aren't you bloody gorgeous?

I´d really love to read about everyone´s "awakening", do you think we should open an extra thread for this?
