Fingers crossed for you to bump into him, tonne!!

I take it that's where you live? It would be cool if you got to meet him, exchange a couple of words or even see him from afar.

Such a lovely man. And Naomi from Cumberbatchweb collected nearly 18,000 pounds for UNICEF. Hats off to all the generous fans.

He's wonderful.

Nice of him to acknowledge the fans.

Lovely! And it was such a good idea to raise money in his name! I wish I could have contributed

I second that!

**Posted by besleybean** September 27, 2017 7:30 pm

Good stuff.

Benedict speaks out about Harvey Weinstein. Well done:

Very thankful that he spoke up. It's so important for other men to condemn Weinstein publicly.

Just back from London and wanted to share this nice little story:
I met up with a set of Brian's pals, think I've mentioned them on here before: the lady is an actress.
Anyhow, they were telling me they'd been to see The Ferrymen.
The night they were there: Benedict was sitting right in front of them.
They said he waltzed in and sat next to this girl who just about died on the spot!
She was quite clearly a fan.
My pals said Benedict was absolutely wonderful, chatted away quite happily with said lady.
They were most impressed by his charm and by what a decent guy he was.

Can this man be really true?

**Posted by besleybean** October 14, 2017 9:17 pm

It always makes me chuckle that people tell me these stories and almost expect me to be surprised.
I just shrug and say: yes, he has the reputation of being so nice.

Indeed. I love how these stories keep popping up. I remember the one where a mother was in a bookshop and suddenly realised Benedict was in the shop, too, reading a storybook to her toddler.
