BENEDICT FUCKING CUMBERBATCH

UPDATED: Another Cumberbatch of pictures added!


UPDATE: Scroll down for new pictures

Fans of modern-day re-imaginings of Victorian literature and hilariously British names will be ecstatic to learn Benedict Timothy Carlton Cumberbatch (Bennie to his mates) has been at Goldney Hall this week filming scenes for the third series of Sherlock.

Excited students have seemingly abandoned studies for the day and instead have taken to Cumber-snatching glimpses of the actor at work.

Getting close to the set has proved to be nearly impossible to the frustration of any “Cumberbabes” hoping to lure the actor back to their spacious, well-lit Goldney room.

Instead, students have had to make do with awkward, unspectacular shots of Benedict standing in the distance, which confirm nothing but the fact Sherlock will be seen standing up at some point in the new series.

No shit, it’s Sherlock!

With filming not over yet, students already appear to be choosing locations to lurk in on the off-chance of bump-erbatching into the actor.

Yeah, as if a man named Benedict Cumberbatch would buy his food from Sainsburys!
