you know what i really, really want and can never have
a three season hbo adaptation of the regeneration…sup my life at the moment is either a) mycroft’s endless eating disorder which is going to give me one if i don’t stop writing about it b) SCREAMING AT PICTURES OF JEREMY BRETT’S FACE or c) trying to think of new entries for “benedict cumberbatch has a stupid name”.
mostly b)
mostly actually WHY CAN’T HE HAVE PLAYED EVERYTHING EVER. :( also I made the world’s most convoluted reference to him in a series of BBC Sherlock fanfics and I don’t think anyone got it which I am mildly relieved about because I don’t want anyone else to be quite this insane.
His actual face tho. :(
[AND MANNING THANKS HIM AFTERWARD and then I came]
hah, re: c), did you see the list of things so-and-so would do were their name benedict cumberbatch? i did & thought of you.
THAT IS HIS REAL ACTUALFAX FACE
OH GOOD I’M SO GLAD YOU DECIDED THAT I NEEDED A HEART-ATTACK TODAY
THAT’S DEFINITELY WHAT MY MONDAY WAS MISSING YOU ABJECT CUNTRACK.
c) I diiiiiiid I reblogged it. Do you know what I would do if my name was Buckaroo Colinderhead? Change it.
his face his face do you remember the look of concern he gives Watson after Watson faints in the empty houseYES I AM NOTORIOUSLY the worst you may ask anyone
i was watching one episode in the first hardwicke series over the weekend (i can’t remember which one) and something he did with his face was so graceful i wanted to actually weep. i don’t know what is wrong with my emotions.
or the fond way he watches watson try to deduce things from the hat in the blue carbuncleAnything with Hardwicke makes me weep after I saw the Wyndham Theatre plaque and just. My emotions. Their friendship. I cannot. I cannot.
His face is just fucking incredible. ALSO. HELLO. THE SOLITARY CYCLIST. BARTITSU. “MR WOODLEY WAS REMOVED IN A CART.” My fangirl noises could be heard on the MOOOOOOON.
i can’t believe we’ve got this far without mentioning the time he was watching Watson sleep Holmes that is not how you human.
oh god, and the thing I reblogged a while back, about Hardwicke being the one to pick Brett up once he was released from the asylum after his breakdown, and Brett saying, “I suppose he is the best friend that any man has ever had in life,” my unending tears. Thank you for being so good to him, Edward Hardwicke. :(
YESS, their silly giggling little faces in that scene!
OR THAT TIME HE KNOCKED WATSON UP (LOL VICTORIAN ENGLISH) BY RUBBING HIS FOOT
