Benedict in jury for Rising Star BAFTA
It seems he really likes this shirt:

Re: Benedict in jury for Rising Star BAFTA
I'm happy for him, but my question would be how come he never won this award? I mean they gave it to Kristin Stewart, but not Ben, seems wonky to me.

Re: Benedict in jury for Rising Star BAFTA
Another article on this with an extra quote from Ben
In a press release for the award, Benedict said: “Judging by the quality of previous nominees and winners it’s often the beginning of an exciting step-up of profile and opportunity. It’s a great platform for young actors and actresses to shine and I’m thrilled to be on board."
The nominess will be announced on January 7, with the final winner being announced at the EE British Academy Film Awards on February 10.
And Benedict had some words of encouragement for all aspiring actors: " Don’t lose your sense of humour, perspective or hope. What will be will be."
He went on to suggest that anyone wanting to make a career should "keep being inquisitive and hard-working"

Mycroft’s popularity doesn’t surprise me at all. He is, after all, incredibly beautiful, clever and well-dressed. And beautiful. Did I mention that?

I agree with you. Strange choice. But then he was nominated for Best Actor as early as 2004. Maybe they thought it wasn't necessary.
But I hope that this time he'll get one for PE. It's about time. After four nominations. 
Thanks for the quotes, Kazza.
