I actually like well-trimmed beards. I think this guy's is distracting because it's so dark.

Benedict at the Park Theatre Gala 22.10.12

Really? It looks like he's in a store -- and all dressed up.

Definitely the Gala night. Maybe a theatre bookshop.

Sadly, my colleague couldn't choose a Ben pic today because she was absent due to illness. That's why I printed out one of my favourites and pinned it to the wall behind her so that I can see it. Maybe tomorrow she'll be back and then she can choose one that will be pinned behind me (above the London calendar).
Oh yes - this is the one I chose. I think you might have seen me posting this before - sorry , I'm not that changeable... . Be brave - it's not as big this time as I used to post it.

Excellent choice!

OMG, this is … amazing.

So sweet, especially considering he says he wants to be a father.
When was this photo taken?

besleybean · October 31, 2012 6:04 pm

Love that scene.
Oh sorry, we think the photo was taken at the weekend.

Would it be wrong to complain in the Free Rants thread that the Favourite Ben Pics thread is too hard to keep up with?

Whenever I get a notice that there's new stuff here, when the page opens, I actually sometimes have to go back a couple of pages to get back where I last left off. I'm not complaining, though. This is the best thread on the board, IMO. heh

I wouldn't say wrong, but I'm afraid it would not change anything.

Well, my colleague was back for work today. She liked the pic I had pinned behind her very much and I made her look through all the photos I brought on my memory stick. Very quickly she opted for that one someone of you had posted some days ago:

Now I have to turn around every 30 minutes because it's pinned to the wall behind me...

Mattlocked · October 31, 2012 10:02 pm

No. Looks too young. (Did I mention before? )

tobeornot221b · October 31, 2012 10:08 pm

Yes, I remember you mention it...
But could have been worse, right?

Oh, yes. He could have that awful red blond hair he sported there for awhile. This isn't Sherlock hair, but I think it's prolly close to his real color. He looks very cute in that pic-- I can see why your coworker picked it, especially if she's not a Sherlock aficionado. Personally, I'm grateful when I hear *anyone* thinks he's a cutie-- for most of us, his looks had to grow on us a bit before we fell headlong into the place where smelling salts are a daily necessity.

Well, I feel very proud that you now have a picture I posted pinned to your office wall. Even if you don't like it and it is behind you.
It would be so cool if I could pin a Benedict picture to my office wall, too, or anything Sherlock related, but I doubt that my (male) colleague would approve of that.

Mattlocked · October 31, 2012 10:45 pm

OH, I'm sure tobe likes the pic!
And for you and your male colleague may I recommend a pic of Sherlock and Irene?

Take a nice cutie pic of Ben, frame it and put it on your desk. You can tell everyone he's your boyfriend, your husband's rival or your brother.... whatever's appropriate, lol.

Has anyone got a suggestion from what campaign/photo shoot this picture stems?
