I thought we'd all stopped anyway?
Also, It could prove to be a relatively short lived thread!

To get back to topic I picked a random page of this thread to repost the first pic I found. Worked nicely, didn't it?

I love both the pic of Benedict and the photo he's next to!

Oooh, the photo he's next to, where's that from? Lovely pic! (Psst, Ben - your Khan is showing!)

Tinker, Tailor, Soldier , Spy filming.
He was playing Khan, at the time of the picture

That pic with Gary and Benedict simply is one of the most lovely pics I've ever seen. And the story behind it is lovely, as well.

This is so.

Vhanja · January 5, 2015 10:57 am

Oooh, where can I find the story behind the pic?

Well unless SS knows something different,...
The photo was taken at Hampstead pools, near Benedict's home.
The cast were filming there. Benedict wasn't required, but he went down on his day off anyway.
He wanted to show solidarity as the pools are a bit cool, but Benedict loves swinming in them and does so regularly.

I know we don't really like to post photos of Ben that has been taken by paps, and I'm not going to either, but have you seen the pics of him from the airport in LA? He's wearing this leather jacket and in my opinion he really should do that more often

I've seen it, he looks gorgeous!

besleybean · January 5, 2015 12:13 pm

Wonder if he's flying into Edinburgh?!

Oh yes I love that story. When I first read it I wasn't a Ben fan at all. Just watched TTSS for Gary and Colin.

Probably yes, if they´re shooting the special tomorrow.

besleybean · January 5, 2015 12:19 pm

So lovely.

Vhanja · January 5, 2015 12:26 pm

Oh, love that story! And love those gifs, they were for a showing of TLV, I think.

besleybean · January 5, 2015 12:31 pm

Hobbit business,wasn't it?
But yes, what I am appeciating lately(in the last year or so) is the affection of Martin to Benedict..it alwas seems to be the other way

nakahara · January 5, 2015 1:13 pm

The affection was there all the time, probably:

Benedict actually jumped in the cold water first, although he wasn't even required to, to show Gary that he'll survive it.

And just because it's such a lovely pic...
