And I think there are some in the general "fan art" thread as well.

Thank you, Susi! The drawings really are beautiful, no wonder Benedict was impressed!!

Aww thank you, I'm really glad you like them. The second one Susi so kindly linked is my latest one - I'm hoping to show him at the TiG premiere. Everybody keep your fingers crossed lol!!

And Biggles. THANK YOU for my lovely letter. I'll be replying soon xx

This doesn't quite go in Ben and Loo's Letters Live thread, or in 'tweets' either, but I'm so loving this. Ben's friend Adam (so cool he and their production company was there, and also been tweeting about the awesomeness of the event), re-tweeted this the other day:

That's just great… not only writing a letter to thank them for the awesome event dedicated to letters, but keeping the fun spirit of it alive by playing around with the fantasy and beautiful style of it.

Here is a little video released by Letters Live. Wish I had been there:

That would really be an experaince.

If you've never taken a look at the "Letters of Note" book I highly recomend you get yourself a copy.
Not only is it fascinating, it's also beautiful. They include photos of the actual letters so that you can see the handwriting and stationary.

*sigh* wonderful...

I'm reading Letters of Note at the moment. No chance of picking a favourite letter, they are all different and each one is amazing.

*put that on my list*

Also this could be a nice book to read. If you have certain voices in mind...

My obsession with Ben has really expanded my Amazon Wishlist.

ukaunz · May 13, 2015 2:23 pm

Lol, you guys should see my bedside table...

SusiGo · May 13, 2015 2:26 pm

Good to know we are not obsessed.

ukaunz · May 13, 2015 2:33 pm

That's just what's within reach of where I am sitting right now (in bed at 12:32am). Even more BC-related paraphernalia near my tv...

But back to topic! I really hope they release a DVD of a more complete recording. How awesome would that be!?

SusiGo · May 13, 2015 3:08 pm

Yes, I think they filmed all the shows. Not without purpose, I suppose.

SusiGo · May 13, 2015 3:12 pm

Just found this, made me smile:

tonnaree · May 13, 2015 3:31 pm

Books that are sitting on my bedside table right now.

Black Mass
The Enigma
The Yellow Birds
Letters of Note
Benedict Cumberbatch in Transition
After the Dance

...........just to name a few.

And they are all sitting right below my BC calendar.

I wrote an email to Letters Live yesterday and asked if they have any plans for a DVD release. Maybe all of you who are interested should join? If there is enough demand ...

Oh no, tonnaree, I don't need more books at the moment.
I already read The Enigma, but ... Black Mass, The Yellow Birds, Letters of Note, After the Dance ....

You ALWAYS need more books gently. Always.
