Hee hee. If, by 'paralysed', he means 'bouncing in their seats, clapping like a seal and grinning like doofuses'…

soooo! where´s the video?? Ben, we are waiting!

**Posted by Mrs.Wenceslas** August 19, 2014 8:56 pm

actually...I´m not sure if I got it right. the person should spill the icy water on himself OR donate to the charity? in that case, I hope Ben will donate - but in that case he won´t be seen wet--. even...ehm. I think I just don´t get that. or does the icy person donate anyway? ugh. too tired to google. sorry for the OT.

I've read that the majority of celebraties are doing both.

I see. good. so I can look forward to Ben in wet shirt without any bad feeling ** (except for bad feeling imagining my hubby being jealous)

**Posted by Marta** August 19, 2014 9:36 pm

I think the rule is: you've got 24 hours to do the challenge (spill the icy water on yourself) and if you don't, you have to donate. So a lot of celebrities donate and do the challenge after 24 hours to spread the news.

Benedict might nominate Simon Pegg. You know... a neutron cream revenge

**Posted by Mrs.Wenceslas** August 19, 2014 9:40 pm

yes...maybe he can nominate Chris Pine? or...oh my. wish he would nominate himself. and now I proclaim myself officially crazy.

**Posted by Marta** August 19, 2014 9:46 pm

Maybe. Or Jonny Lee Miller, they're friends.

He's taking his time... now I want lots of ice and no shirt.

**Posted by besleybean** August 20, 2014 5:41 am

He's busy.

**Posted by tonnaree** August 20, 2014 12:35 pm

I'm sure it will be worth the wait.

**Posted by Marta** August 20, 2014 9:16 pm

It's coming

Meanwhile, Rupert Graves did the challenge! Sadly, we don't know if he nominated someone.

Oh...! So... is he working on a project with SunnyMarch right now...?

**Posted by tonnaree** August 20, 2014 9:27 pm

Waiting patiently still for ice bucket but now dying of curiousity about what he's filming.

**Posted by Marta** August 20, 2014 9:35 pm

It might be a SunnyMarch project, I remember Benedict mentioned in Cracow he was planning to do something with SunnyMarch this year but wasn't specific about it.

By the way, have you seen this?

**Posted by Lilith** August 20, 2014 9:40 pm

The water in the Rupert Graves video must be soooo cold cause clicking on that link freezes my laptop again and again.

**Posted by This Is The Phantom Lady** August 20, 2014 9:41 pm

I am so double excited about this whole thing...

I NEED to know!! (Imagine I said that without shouting)

**Posted by tonnaree** August 20, 2014 9:44 pm

I'm just gonna leave this here.........................
