He's definitely inspired me to practice my music more...I've started learning pieces from the series soundtracks!

I need to go through this thread again, a bit.

I just made the mistake of watching Atonement. I don't think I'll do that again...

I mean he's playing it well, too well... I just had to run to the bathroom sick. *shivers* I'm going to need a lot of Sherlock and what not when I finish watching this.

But do have a look at this really nice pic from behind the scenes of filming "Atonement"...

It's strange tho, Sherlock and Ben, in general, really inspires me.

Through this I want to draw more, run faster, read books again, learn something new. Heck, I'd even like a crack at acting!

Am I alone on that?

No definitely not alone!
He makes me regret so much that I've never taken an acting class.
He makes me wish I could paint.
He makes me want to learn more and experience more --- daft, aren't i?

I´m so glad you posted this, just today I felt a little sheepish about how much Sherlock inspires me - I practise Bach again on the piano and listen to his violin pieces, took up running again, started re-decorating my home.. and many things more. It´s a bit embarrassing that a fictional character does that to me, but then again - who cares . I decided to just enjoy it, how often is it you get inspired like this? It´s so great to read you guys feel the same..

Paul Marshall creeps me out so much, but Ben plays him so so well, it's difficult for me to enjoy his acting because it's so good, but creepy!

This Is The Phantom Lady · February 24, 2014 7:38 pm

Like I said he almost plays him too well. Gosh I really, really shouldn't have watched this

*Goes to look at Sherlock pictures*

It's so nice to hear how everyone is so inspired, either by Sherlock or by Ben himself.

Here's a fab link to a pic of our boy on the Oscars site. Click right to see what inspired him!

Aw that is beautiful! Not only the picture but what he said too... aaw!

Let's bring this back to the reason we are all here....pictures of Ben.

Feast your eyes ;) I'm off for a little lie down...

Gosh, the suit, the bow-tie, HIS FACE, ASKJFHASKJFH SDJHF JL

clareiow · February 24, 2014 8:51 pm

One can only dream that he's looking that good on Sunday night! Which we know he will ;)

This Is The Phantom Lady · February 24, 2014 8:53 pm

His hand and that gesture!! And the bowtie!

*THUD*

Zatoichi · February 24, 2014 8:53 pm

Okay, now he also inspired me to read The Diving Bell and the Butterfly.

But back to business!

..*feasts her eyes*..

Thank you for this fab pic, claireiow, I think I´m off for a little lie-down, too..!

Wow, Clare, this is unhealthy, the pictures you're posting, wow, I'm unable to put together word to explain how they make me feel.
