Wait, there's an interview of Benedict from Caitlin?

That's two kinds of awesome.

I hope there'll be one. I like her writing very much. And if it's about him, all the better.

I love her writing, having read 'How to be a Woman' I've got to say I'm a hand's down woman (Or she's a bloke like me?!). It'd be great to read her pandering to her base sexual geek self and adhering to the fact that' she's a professional reporter.

We need more Cat's in this world.

Oh, I like her too, intelligent and funny. Hopefully the interview will be soon out.

That's not even the 'actual' interview, but already the little 'incident'/mental imagery/humor and personality that comes across with her short little blurb already had me helplessly grinning.  Those two are so great!!

I read that tonight and I had to stop at some times because all this perfection and adorableness was simply too much! Can this man be anymore perfect? Wonderful interview, really.

A really great article. Captures his hyperactive essence and his mum and dad. He's not naturally blond though. This is the alt-J track Tessellate that he mentions. You can see the triangle sign at around 1:38 . I love this song too, especially the vocals which are a.maze.ing.




Ooo I forgot to say. I used to be a massive fan of UFO. I was, in fact, more than a little in love with Ed Bishop and totally smitten with the gorgeous Michael Billington. I remember Wanda as being stunning.

This is the best article yet. His parents are so lovely. And his mother "find him a bird!" No pressure at all!

I read the article in newspaper format (with photos) in case someone prefers it like that.
