Oh Sherlock!

It is really strange, when he is acting I don't see Ben anymore... Actually the more you watch his work, the more you loose Ben out of sight and start thinking that the characters are REAL...

A compliment you hear a lot in interviews. And it is so true. As I mentioned before when I wasn't in this "matter" that much I watched Sherlock, STID and TFE without realising that I just saw the same actor!!!

Just compare ...

Only a few characters from the last 2 years and so different. Well there is a resemblance with Sherlock and Ford but only from the looks...

If you won't know him would you say that is one and the same actor?

It makes me so proud to see all of those images. He's done such a good job at portraying so many different characters. He grabs the opportunity with both hands and he nails it.

*wipes away tear*

We could compare many others as well, characters of years ago which are totally different. But I wanted to show that it isn't a matter of time than of talent and being absolutely changeable.

Sorry that is something for the "Let's talk about ..." thread.

I love his face in the last one, so very expressive!!

It's a "Oh no really?" face.

A lot of it is the eyes really, and honestly to be able to do so much with your eyes or how you set your jaw... WOW

He and Martin are both fabulous actors. They (and their characters) have real chemistry, and it's a wonder to behold. I agree, I can almost always look at a photo and see whether it's Ben I'm looking at or Ben-being-Sherlock. He puts on the costume, and then he puts on the OTHER costume, his Sherlock persona. It's cool to see.

I honestly don't know if I've seen this picture before, but hey, I really, really, really like it.

This Is The Phantom Lady · April 8, 2014 1:00 pm

So do I, aaw what a sweet smile and look at how blue his eyes appear!

And ancient, I agree completely with what you said!

rebeccaholmes · April 8, 2014 1:10 pm

His hair is on point too!

This Is The Phantom Lady · April 8, 2014 1:14 pm

Ah yes! I LOVE when his hair curls like that... and the colour! Beautiful!

He's adorable!

Holy manip...
If he results in looking like this, I am twice as excited for it...

rebeccaholmes · April 8, 2014 2:07 pm

It's quiet on here today, so I'm just going to throw loads of things on here, ready for everybody's return.

This Is The Phantom Lady · April 8, 2014 2:07 pm

Oh wow! That is beautifully made. And gosh he is rather nice looking in that crown and beard!

rebeccaholmes · April 8, 2014 2:11 pm

I'm sorry, what?

That one with the jean jacket just screams 'Lord Cumberbatch' to me. The sass!
