You know you are not a fully developed Benedict fan when this acronym makes you first think of TSS

Toxic Shock Syndrom? Well, isn't that what you get from a Cumberbatch overdose...? (Or from too much blonde hair?)

Re: Parade's End
I love this drama. BC is brilliant in it!! One of my fave scenes is when the little boy is upset so Christopher tells him the story about the tree and well. He counts to 10 in a soothing voice and the boy falls asleep. Aww! Everytime BC cries I want to hug him. The whole cast is great. I love Parade's End.

Re: Parade's End
...and all five episodes in one go, now that's a lot of Christopher and a lot of heartbreak all at once.

I cried. And one part of me was mentally shouting "Stop crying you idiot, it's just a tree!!" but the other part was shouting "No it's not!!" xD

Oh, all my feelings are back now, thank you.
For me, it was two days. I couldn't bear all five at once!

Re: Parade's End
I watched it within 2 days.
I love and admire him for his performance- that he can play so many different characters, giving everyone something specific. He plays the "non-emotional Tietjen as good as well- for me he is an excellent actor. How he fits this charakter in the whole historical backround with the disturbances of the first world.
