Here are more photos of Benedict Cumberbatch and Sophie Hunter at the BAFTAs. I’m also including photos of the couple as they attended the Grosvenor House BAFTA after-party, in which it sort of looked like Benedict was pulling Sophie away from the bank of cameras, in between gazing at her lovingly. At the BAFTAs, Bendy was all about the loving gaze. Like, he’s so into her. She doesn’t really gaze back at him the same way, but who knows? Maybe her feet hurt. Oh, and I’m including some photos of Bendy solo on Monday morning outside of The Corinthia Hotel. I guess a lot of BAFTA people stayed at the hotel overnight, maybe. In those pics, Bendy’s fly is down. Bad Bendy!

Just a few small stories today. While Bendy was on the BAFTA red carpet, he talked about his friend David Oyelowo and how it’s a shame Oyelowo didn’t get nominated for a BAFTA for Selma: “His performance as Martin Luther King was extraordinary. A spellbinding flawless performance in an exceptional piece of film…I wish David Oyelowo was here tonight. I don’t understand it. He would have got my vote.” Is that shade directed at Eddie Redmayne? Like, people only voted for Eddie because David Oyelowo wasn’t nominated?

What else… Bendy is an EastEnders fan. EastEnders, for those Americans who do not know, is sort of pulpy nighttime soap opera in Britain. Lots of working class accents. Benedict joked that he would love to be on EastEnders but his accent is too posh.

And finally, Benedict has signed up to make an appearance at a London Sherlocked event. It’s a nerd-athon event for all things Sherlock, for fans of the original canon, fans of the films, fans of the TV shows, etc. Benedict will appear for one day of the three-day nerd-athon, and Mark Gatiss and Steven Moffat will also be doing a panel discussion or something. For just a regular day pass, it costs £29, but to meet Bendy in person, you have to pay £595 to £2995 for various VIP passes. You can read more about it here. It goes down in April, and I think his baby is due in April. Just sayin’.
