You and me both. He had me at 'penguins'.

That.was.amazing. Seriously funny. Thanks so much for posting the links!

Okay. Benedict officially made my day - or at least the last seven minutes. He is adorable, yes, he is. And he sure would be my choice of man to spend a day filled with laughter, silly (and also intelligent and profound) talk, some booze, good food and maybe some cigarettes and cigars with.

Sherloh · October 25, 2014 10:25 am

The whole show

He's certainly amusing and entertaining.

He is so lovely when you can see and hear him. I bet if the "Out" interview had been televised there wouldn't have been a fuss. He always seems to have nice things to say about other guests too.

Unless they're Michael Winner...that was funny!

I guess so too. He does not strike me as a vicious person at all. But he is, as we all are, human. And all human beings have flaws and are allowed to have them. The problem with Benedict is that he is in the limelight almost constantly and everything, EVERYTHING he says and does is taped and filmed and analysed to the smallest detail and discussed through and through. And he still seems to be adjusting to this special position he fills and still isn't quite sure what to think of all the love and admiration he gets from so many people and places. Must be quite overwhelming at times.

He seems to be desperately trying(tho totally failing) to hang onto his privacy.

eurydike · October 25, 2014 11:50 am

Definitely. I've seen a lot of people try and most of them failed. More or less. I just hope that once the whole hype is over (needs to happen eventually), he will be able to welcome with his newly found privacy back with open arms.

I personally think being open about one's status is always the best policy...but that's up to him.

Awh shame they removed the whole thing on that link... I hope to find it some day.

Is it weird that I cheered for him when he finally got 'Penguins' right?

Graham brings all the best in Ben, not that Ben needs help though!!

BC was gorgeous, funny and charming as always! I love him!

You can watch the whole thing in Dailymotion

Sherloh · October 26, 2014 12:39 pm

Just watched the penguin bit again, and it still makes me laugh so much

He's adorable.

Lilith · October 26, 2014 2:01 pm

Edgeucated~ thanks bunches for the dailymotion tip!!!

Liberty · October 28, 2014 7:19 pm

The bits that missed the cut.

It's a shame - I'd have liked to have heard it all! But I suppose there were other guests too .
