Well it's all very quiet on here today, where is everyone?

Hopefully this will draw everyone back and set pulses racing....it did mine!

.....His appeal isn't skin deep. It's the incredible level of acting prowess he has, that aura that dominates the screen, and when we peel back the on-screen character, we see this actually incredibly hardworking, charming, warm and humble man who is deeply passionate about his work. That does it for me.

I like your list of the things you like about him, that make him attractive to you. I'd have to add intelligence. I do love a warm, funny, SMART person, and he certainly is. The looks (those eyes and that lean tall body and the lips and those crazy good cheekbones!) and the acting prowess are frosting on the cake, for sure. But I am in awe of his schmartz.

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

Yes.

Tinks · March 9, 2014 1:59 pm

I love his intelligence too
I sometimes think people don't "get" him because he's so smart, but those who do seem to have a real affection for him, which I think is lovely
Brainy is indeed the new sexy

Holy Crépe!

I just went through 27 pages of amazing pictures! Good thing I'm sipping a health drink here because... that man is serious bad news for my health!!

xD, most of the time I was browsing the pages my playlist did something weird and replied PSY's 'Gentleman' 3 times... then it finally changed into a song called 'I Need You Tonight'. ... I'll just go to my mind palace for a while and ponder about that one

clareiow · March 9, 2014 2:24 pm

Don't say a word more Cumberbabe - I just want to watch it all NOW! Did you get the playlist?

I've started a new thread that we can all join, following on from the conversation developing here. It's called Awakenings....please pop over

clareiow · March 9, 2014 2:35 pm

Back to Sherlock.....you, it's always you. You keep me right.

Have you seen this short you tube thing where he gets to show off his smarts a bit? I don't know that this is a definitive IQ test, lol, but I was fascinated to see The Thing in operation-- he just loves to tap his fingers, move his hands, fidget as he thinks and talks. And my god, does he talk fast! I thought we New Englanders were the fastest-talking English speakers in the world, but apparently we just got that trait from our British ancestors and never lost it. This is an old video, from back when Sherlock was in its early stages, but I still find it interesting.
