BBC Sherlock Fan Forum - Serving Sherlockians since February 2012 » Let's talk all things lovely about Ben...

Oh definitely I feel it more from his point of view than mine as a fan - although I'd love to see him in something sooner rather than later, I feel strongly that he loves to act and won't be happy if there's nothing coming up for him.
Probably best not to speculate too much on his finances, but I think the personal appearances, award presentations etc., are his way of avoiding taking roles in Movies that he wouldn't want to be in.

I take comfort in the fact that he knows exactly what he wants and that he doesn't let anybody push him into roles he doesn't want at all. (Oh god ... my English ...)

gently, I think your English is better than mine! And I am English!

Is there absolutely no possibility that S4 of Sherlock will be filmed at the end of this year then? Seems like Ben would have plenty of time for that.

Everything will be fine guys! I have faith - he said in a little interview with vogue TV that he was in NYC for work. So he's working, just not in the sense we think about. He could be casting or all sorts!

I'm confident it'll all work out great! It's Ben!

Thanks a lot, Tinks. This sentence just sounded strange ... somehow.

@clare
Let's hope so.

Amen!

Remember the article about Benedict coming to Poland on Saturday? (And the discussion about names and languages ) They sell tickets for few hours and... I got one! I can't believe it! They will show "Little Favour" and after that, there will be a Q&A with the creators. If all of this isn't only a dream, of course

So happy for you. This is really amazing.

I'm absolutely jealous ... and wish you so much fun!!!

Really pleased for you Marta, I hope you have a wonderful time

SolarSystem · May 8, 2014 2:48 pm

Marta, wonderful news! I'm sure it'll be amazing!

mrshouse · May 8, 2014 2:49 pm

Great news, Marta! Kiss him from me...
I have a feeling lots of our forum can meet him but me!

I have the same feeling.

Tinks · May 8, 2014 3:06 pm

That's three of us!
I wouldn't try to meet him, to be honest - I'm quite shy around people I don't know and in the brief time I'd have to speak to him, I'd be struck dumb or say something idiotic, so it's best I admire him from afar!

besleybean · May 8, 2014 4:06 pm

I can't see a time where I'd ever approach him.

I can.

And I promise not in a psycho stalker like way.

Needless to say if I had the chance to go to a con where he was I'd sell a kidney to afford the meet and greet price.

gently69 · May 8, 2014 4:50 pm

I am also convinced that I won't leave this world without meeting Benedict once. Yeah ... that's my plan. Erm ... yes... this!

SusiGo · May 8, 2014 4:52 pm

Count me in.

gently69 · May 8, 2014 4:58 pm

Of course!!!!!
