Nice video clip collection of Ben's work on the BBC America site:

John: "Have you spoken to Mycroft, Molly, uh, anyone?"
Mrs Hudson: "They don’t matter. You do."

I BELIEVE IN SERIES 5!

Thank you, tobe!

Think I like this especially (at least it's new for me):




And then I found this:




lolol... I wonder if there is more somewhere...?

Yay, they picked my absolute FAVORITE Parade's End scene!  Thanks for posting this!

Is it just me, or would anyone else like to see BC play Bertie Wooster? 
Pro: Bertie is the polar opposite of Sherlock (except the aversion-to-girls thing) and he gets to show off his comedic skill. Con: he says he's tired of casting-by-accent roles, and there is an element of that in it.

What do 'real' people have, then, in their 'real' lives?

So we go round the sun; if we went round the moon, or round and round the garden like a teddy bear, it wouldn't make any difference.

Sometime before House, my sibling and I were watching W&J on DVD, and agreed that with that face, Hugh Laurie could never play anything but a doofus. I guess we had it wrong. 

Anyway, BC does have that unusual kind of face that can either be either very attractive or a bit goofy. (Don't yell at me, anyone! I find his Sherlock very attractive!) He might be a bit old for Bertie, though.

Veece, I have to confess that in one scene in ASiB I had to think of Laurel in Laurel and Hardy for a moment. -> a bit goofy
Now you may guess which scene it was

No, you are right about the goofy face. Sometimes it comes through at odd moments, I've noticed. I suppose he is too old to do the Wooster, but I think he'd be fabulous at it anyway. Then again, I think he's sexy reading children's stories, so my judgement may be off.
