Nothing like spending the early hours of Christmas Eve morning in A&E with potential gallstones ✌🏼
(All fine, got a prescription for pain meds and an ultrasound being arranged at my GP surgery, shout out to the lovely NHS and our free healthcare service❤️)
I am going through that at the moment, agony!!!

I checked out the Forest Fables on Insta. It looks neat and something I’d love to take my children to ... even if Sophie wasn’t involved. It’s maddening to think the “haters” would attack a project that has otherwise out-of-work creatives getting paid AND helmed by a working mother (whose husband can’t be pitching in too much because he’s off working as well). You’d think they’d praise all around. Especially Gator, who espouses progressive views.
The septics will never admit Sophie is good at her job. By the looks of it, Forest Fables is a wonderful interactive play. As for the other participants in the projects, to the haters they are now Sophie's enablers and therefore not worthy of consideration. And yes, Hator and the rest of the septics do love to go after Sophie for being a working mother. But then again, they would've gone after her if she had decided to stay at home. She can't do anything right in their eyes.
Sophie exudes a lot of the Haters say they stand for - she's an educated, artistic, environmentally conscious, working mother. They say they support education for women BUT if it's Sophie, then she's an elitist! They say they support artists and women in the arts BUT if it's Sophie, then they immediately slag her out of hand and denegrate EVERYTHING about her projects! The Haters are ALWAYS ragging on about supporting environmental causes BUT if Sophie shows her support of environmental causes, she receives nothing but scorn from Haters. Gator and her gang shout and ballyhoo about supporting working mothers BUT if Sophie works while being a mother to 3 children, well, then she's a person who should be castigated and mocked!
All this hatred towards Sophie is deeply rooted in a misogynistic jealousy and a delusional level of entitlement. Everything Sophie does is coloured by the Haters' all consuming penchant for wanting to control BC's life.
The worst part is that it's not Sophie they hate, it's the fact that she's part of Ben's life while they are not. It's pretty clear that if Ben and Sophie were to separate and he found someone new, they'd go after her too. As you said, it's not just misogyny, it's their need to try and control Ben's life. Fuck know why, but the septics have convinced themselves they have the right to tell him what to do.
That's what gets me. If the Haters had come across Sophie, and she had never been connected to BC, most of them probably wouldn't have had any problems with how she lives her life. It's ONLY because they see her as threat to their idea of who Ben is (not the REAL Ben, but THEIR idealized version of who he is - their internet "boy toy") that they have built this myth of "Eeeeeevil Sophie"! And so they just keep spouting more and more nonsense like fake kids, sex trafficking, Russian mob ties, and international money laundering.
The characters look amazing, I love this kind of art, quirky, the make up and costumes are like way out pantomime costumes.
I suppose there’s one good thing abouyt workinmg from home/lockdown, I haven’t had to go through the ‘No, I don’t celebrate Christmas’ ritual again with new colleagues.
Them: Really, you don’t celebrate Christmas. Why?
Me: I’m an atheist
Them: But it’s a pagan celebration really
Me: Yes, but not on the same day and anyway I’ve just said I’m an atheist. I don’t celebrate anyone’s religious festival.
Then: But you must have celebrated as a child. Everyone celebrates with their children even the local Hindus, Sikhs etc.
Me: Nope. I grew up in an atheist, Socialist household. Pretty much against religion and the celebration of capitalism.
And from there it goes on and on. People always try to persuade me that I should celebrate it and they go off on more and more obscure tangents to try to do it.
Personally, I don’t have anything against people celebrating their own festivals if they are religious and if people want to have some sort of semi-secular, capitalist mid-winter blow-out that’s their business. But, honestly I wish they’d leave me out of it.
I agree. I have decided this year that I am done with “Christmas”. My husband and I don’t really celebrate it, and only acknowledge it out of obligation to other people in our lives who do, but I’m done. I’m giving away my boxed Christmas cards and will only send New Year cards if I send anything at all. I prefer to focus on birthdays. I may or may not celebrate Saturnalia in some way, privately, but not because I’m pagan or wiccan, just because I like to think about nature and the changing of seasons and moving from the longest, darkest night to days that get incrementally longer. I thought this year might be less about capitalism with the pandemic and all, but it seems to be even more commercialized in some ways.
I’m an atheist through and through but I LOVE Christmas! I appreciate and enjoy the pageantry and traditions that surround Christmas. It’s just like I appreciate and admire the architecture of churches/temples/mosques etc. and religious paintings. And I enjoy celebrating Christmas traditions with the various children in my life - they exude the true meaning of Christmas to me… the wonderment, the hope and the humanity in the Christmas spirit. Don’t believe in the Jesus story but still am deeply moved by the devotion of those who created music like The Messiah or O Holy Night. And Jingle Bell Rock isn’t too shabby either! 🎄🎅❤🎁
Exactly how I feel
You better be working on S5 Moftiss
I don’t get it….Moftiss possibly cannot be ambiguous about it! You either have S5 planned or you don’t. What’s with the middle ground? If you go to any of Steven’s or Mark’s posts, all you find is people asking, begging, threatening for or demanding Sherlock S5. What possible gratification would they get from keeping the fandom in a muddle?
If they truly did not have S5 planned they would have just stated it - “That’s the end of the show guys, nothing more ahead…do not spend your precious lives hoping and waiting” or something like that - basically making the end of the show official. There is no point in prolonging the fans’ agony because the fandom would never receive the satisfaction of finally getting what they’ve been waiting for for ages - the next series.
Their inscrutable behaviour only makes sense if there was definitely a next series planned, because they can come back and say - “Hey, we never said the show was over, here it is - surprise!” or “We know you waited a LONG time, here is the fruit of your patience”. Steven said we are the fandom with the most patience in the recent 10 year anniversary video. Mark saying “Stay Tuned” at the end of the video - stay tuned for what? if not S5, then what?
I swear, they absolutely cannot come out one fine day and say “No more, Sherlock. Sorry, guys” - because that does not justify the way they’ve been playing hide-n-seek with the fans. There has to be a S5 unless Moftiss are willing to face the wrath….
They have not said that there won’t be a season five because the BBC still as an open option for it. However they have said that maybe they’ll be interested in writing Sherlock again someday. They’ve also said that because of Martin and Ben’s careers it will more than likely be a movie and not a series. Sherlock isn’t dead but it is definitely collecting dust on the shelf and it will probably be that way for a while.
“ There has to be a S5 unless Moftiss are willing to face the wrath”
LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL!!!
Uh were you not here when they had to put up with the shitfit wrath of all of you tjlc/jlockers??? or were you too busy with the rest of them trying to get mark kicked off charities and writing letters to the BBC complaining about the kiss that only you guys promised each other and the mofftiss told you there was no riding off into the sunset with that?
Your fandom entitlement is amazing but not shocking. The mofftiss owe you and me NOTHING!!!!!!! and I pray to god that they never produce a s5 because after all the abuse the showrunners and cast had to put up with after s4, this fandom doesn’t deserve jack shit from anyone connected to Sherlock.
Anyone who’s sitting in agony or getting themselves all twisted up over a god damn tv show about fictional characters, really needs to get a god damn life already. The decent fans of this show are willing to move on with their lives and not make such ridiculous demands. You lot are something else with all these declarations about they better tell us yes or no or else they will get a mighty wind from the fans!!
They already did. and ya know what I bet thats why they are like nah we good.
@itscumberbatchgalaxy Do relax. I know they don’t owe anyone anything. It’s their show, they can choose to do whatever they want. My post was a rant and nothing more. A “decent” fan? LOL I wasn’t even in the fandom when S4 released. I don’t understand why you had to write up an essay for a post on a “God damn tv show”.
When I said they have to face the wrath, I meant people are gonna be heartbroken and they may get a hell lot of msgs about it. Obviously you chose to take it in the extreme way. Abuse? Really? I know there are people who do that but seriously, you are no less assuming things about people like that.
It’s hilarious because I actually agree with you regarding people who go out there and give shit to the cast and the showrunners. But this is my blog and I haven’t “abused” anyone. In fact I have written another post saying how the cast is busy and it’s possibly difficult for them to make a new one right now, even if they ever plan to do one. Maybe you just like to go around and reply to posts as a stress buster lol.
Anyway, if you are so above all of it and give two shits, please ignore and move on since you have a “God damn life” apparently.
They haven’t been playing hide-and-seek with the fans IMO at all. They have been up front all along. The series, as we once knew it, is over but they are leaving open the possibility at some time in the future for a special to happen if all the factors are right with everyone’s schedule. That’s not “muddled” at all. It’s very clear to me that they are very busy with other endeavours, so nothing is happening in the foreseeable future. And I’m perfectly fine with that.
From what I can see, people who are “threatening for or demanding Sherlock S5” really don’t want Sherlock at all. What they WANT is Johnlock to happen. And on THAT the creators of the show have been unequivocal - IT ISN’T GOING TO HAPPEN!
You may have not been a part of the fandom when Season 4 came out, but I was and the bullying done by a lot of Johnlockers directed at Moffat and Gatiss was disgraceful and terribly wrong. It was the epitome of fan entitlement. I think M&G have been pretty gracious in light of how poorly they were treated by the Johnlockers. If they never touched Sherlock again they’d be more than justified IMO.
Totally agree. They have not been in the least bit ambiguous. They have said they liked making it and that they are open to making more at some time if the actors are available. That could be a year or 20 years.
I agree too that the level of fan entitlement for Sherlock (and tbh for a lot of shows in the past 5 years) has been off the scale. It’s gone from creating fanon in parallel to the show i.e. normal fannish behaviour - to special interest groups be they johnlockers or Dean/Cas shippers or any other discrete fan group demanding that their interpretation is the one the creators follow. This is inspite of the fact that their interpretation is one that the vast majority of people who watch the show but are not involved in fandom don’t even consider let alone expect.
Often the argument I’ve seen is that shows and broadcasters do not want female fans because they are seen as less important or as having less value.But often this argument ignores the views of female viewers who are not involved in ‘shipping’, even when those women are actually in the fandom but are more interested in plot than ships.
And I am one of those viewers! Not involved in shipping at all, loved all the seasons of the show equally and yet you won’t see me DEMANDING that M&G be working on Season 5! If a reunion special happens I’ll watch it, you bet, but I can’t say that I spend any time thinking about it.
As for the charge that the creators said that they had a season 5 planned… that was YEARS ago and people are allowed to change their minds as circumstances change over the years. So I don’t hold them to a statement that was said well before the horrible reaction that Johnlockers thrust upon the fandom. I don’t interpret season 4 as any kind of prediction of another season. It seemed to me to wrap things up nicely and give the show a dynamic of being completed. I’m fine with it.
I really don’t like it when people try and read into things or ship things when the writers clearly say otherwise, they wrote the episodes!
"I don't hate Ben" keeps saying Hator and yet choses to post this:
Does this sound like a woman who only has Ben's best interest at heart? Also note the not so subtle dig at Sophie. Wtf is that about? Whoever wrote this word salad is definitely angry at Ben for staying with his wife and kids. As for the ageism thing, in case the anon didn't notice, but there are plenty of actors in their late 40's and 50's that get regular work in action movies. And Ben *isn't* a one trick pony. Unlike the septics who send all their time spewing the same debunked lies over and over again.
Again, more evidence that show just HOW much Haters actually disdain and disrespect BC as a person and an actor! Utter bollocks!
What a load of hateful crap. They really do loathe him, don’t they?
And he was well known and highly respected in theatre before tv cape along.

At least the septics have moved on from Fadometrics 🤦♀️. They are so incredibly stupid that they don't realize how bad focusing on things like that make them look. Given the amounts of actors there are in the UK, 49th is still pretty good. Specially for someone who is rarely heard of outside of promos. Hator also failed to notice he's the 16th most famous, thus disproving her whole "nobody knows who he is" narrative. I can't even imagine how many cuts she must have on her hands for grasping at straws all the time.
The other thing the Haters "forget" to mention about that ranking is that it includes DEAD ACTORS AS WELL AS LIVING ONES! And when you check the lists BC is in pretty good company at ranking 49th because COLIN FIRTH, ROBERT DOWNEY JR., NICOLE KIDMAN, HUGH GRANT and OLIVIA COLEMAN all rank LOWER THAN HIM!
And Martin Freeman isn't even listed on the UK site. If you check the US site BC out ranks Martin Freeman ...
So... are the Haters really sure they want to go down THAT route??? Using that metric probably won't strengthen the Haters argument that BC's career is in the toilet! I really don't know just HOW this site arrives at their rankings.
Everybody knows his name and most could tell you who he is, however all this bollocks that his star is waning because there aren’t million of pap pictures of his kids is rubbish. How many pap pictures do you see if other actors? He is an established respected actor.
Okay but using Karen for the betterment of others is a genius move I never could have seen coming
Be the good Karen you want to see in the world
reblogging for the pun
Be the change you want to see in your meme
Karen Redemption Arc was not on my Apocalypse bingo card.
Feel sorry for my cousin and two friends called Karen.
The Amazing Giant Marionettes created by French street theatre company Royal De Luxe in Montreal, Canada.
Incredible, reminds me of the stuff in the mechanical museum in Nantes.
How can this be a close race? How? How can so many people vote for Trump after all he did and said? HOW? I know this isn't over yet but I can't for the life of me understand why so many people have voted for that fucking cunt. This shouldn't have been a close race. Trump is by far the worst president in history and will probably hold that title until the end of the universe. What the fuck is wrong with you USA?
I question the education system they have, though we aren’t much better.
Melosyna’s comments under the YouTube video last week made it very clear that she believes she was dating Benedict in 2014 when he dumped her to marry Sophie. I think she has been one of Gator’s sources for the last few years, using her real name or a different screen name. She lives in Germany, she has a daughter and she has or had a husband. She says she is fine and doesn’t need professional help, then she says that she is suffering and no one should challenge anything she says. I don’t think she is any danger to BC, but I hope that she is not a threat to herself or her family.
Thanks to the pandemic, it’s almost impossible for her to travel to the UK. But I think she could be a threat to Ben and his family. She’s clearly mentally unstable and that could lead her to do something serious. I do hope she isn’t a danger to anyone, but she could very well be and that’s what worries me.
I doubt she is a real threat to BC and family. Unstable, definitely but she seems very vague when questioned directly and doesn't want to engage with anyone with anything more than bitter complaints mostly. Still I'm really glad he has security. With diehard Haters getting naive suckers worked up about Sophie to the point of convincing them that she is abusing Ben and involved in criminal activities, one never knows what horrible seeds they are sowing!
Is there any evidence she has a daughter? I simply don’t believe a word any of these people say about anything. As for Ben and Sophie, they are very careful about security, so I think they’re safe.
I think they are safe too. When I first started at my workplace when BC was at the height with Sherlock there was a girl there telling everyone she was secretly seeing BC, she wasn’t, lots of them about I should imagine.

Sasha Baron-Cohen is a national treasure. That's it, that's the post.
Couldn’t agree more!
Kathy Burke is lovely. All weekend she’s been tweeting info about British crafts people - hundreds of tweets so far. That’s the way you use a large twitter following for good :-)
I saw that, I absolutely adore her.
I didn't think it would be possible to out-crazy Aeltri, but Melosyna did it. Here's her reaction to a tweet from Matt Haig concerning Lily James and Dominic West
She really is following the septic line about Ben not being private even though you don't hear from him unless he has something to promote. Melosyna keeps saying she as no interest in keeping silent any longer, meaning we're bound to deal with her insanity for a little while longer. I doubt this is going to end well for her. Thankfully, the pandemic makes it harder for her to travel to London. Heaven knows what she could do.
Good grief she’s revolting and horrible.
Wow, she is something else!
I'm so sorry! I didn't mean I thought Ben was ugly or a bad actor. English is not my first language and that ask clearly showed. I just meant he's not the only British, talented, handsome actor (but Tom is still my fave 😍. My point was: Ben doesn't play PR games, is a happily married father of 2 (3?) Lovely kids. I don't understand this insanity, writing awful things about Sophie just because she is the one. The same thing is happening to Zawe and it's so unfair and disgusting.
It's okay, I know what you were trying to say. And as a non-native English speaker, I can tell you your English is fine. Btw, Tom is also my fave. I know some of his "fans" are going after Zawe. It's always the same when a celebrity gets into a relationship, a small handful of bitter Betty turn into tinhats and haters out of envy and jealousy.
Zawe Ashton is lovely, what a bunch of bitches.
Ok, I like Benedict, he's a good actor, has beautiful eyes but I don't understand why people are so obsessed with him. He's not that interesting, I mean in a feeding the PR vibe. He's not that handsome (Hiddleston and Fassbender are). He's not the best British Actor (Chiwetel is better IMO). Why people are so insanely obsessed with him and his wife? The woman barely said anything that I heard and seems like a cool lady. And Laurence Fox is a douchebag. Sorry, I'm ranting here.
I happen to think he's very handsome and a very good actor. But I agree with you on the PR thing. Ben and Sophie are both very private individuals and we rarely hear details of their private life. I think that's what fuels the septics obsession. Since there's so little to go on, they fill in the gaps by inventing stories that have no basis in reality. And since none of them seem to have a life, making up lies and over analyzing the shit out of everything is all they've got.
Are people that obsessed with him though apart from the haters? They are the ones obsessed. He is admired and he has fans that follow him which is normal but I don’t think particularly obsessed fans, well not as obsessed as the haters anyway.

This is soooooo like...
Um, I don't know... like Aeltri?!?
Angry✅
Hate filled✅
Bitter✅
Racist ✅ (with Laurence Fox reference)
Homophobic ✅ (with Laurence Fox reference)
Accusing Ben of criminal behaviour ✅
Namecalling ✅
Slips in favourite insult for Sophie - "cunt"✅
And makes all of this come down to him dumping Sophie ✅
And of course this is designed to allow the Hater circle jerk to continue. An "anon" expresses ANGER AND REMINDS EVERYONE OF HOW COMPLICIT BC IS IN THE "SHAM" and Gator nods in agreement and then all the Haters act like this isn't just one poster's opinion - it becomes "Look at how the FANDOM feels about him!".
It would almost certainly shock the obsessive haters who seem to have no lives and no families and nothing to do for literally hours at a time, that most people I know, when I’ve mentioned Ben and Sophie to them, have never heard of her or have just seen her at some premier or other and thought nothing more about it. One friend of mine saw her photo with Ben and told me she liked her dress. That was as much interest in Sophie as she showed.
Agree, when that photo of Ben on the boat was put on FB some people didn’t know who it was let alone Sophie. People in general would know him from Sherlock and Dr Strange but otherwise he isn’t that massive a deal here.
Elise will be 2 tomorrow. We are having what M calls a Covid celebration. That is, people are coming over in small groups and then leaving and then the next lot are coming. It’s taken some arranging. We told M and M that it would be like having 4 parties for Elise, and, as a result, they are exited about it.
Elise has turned dark and looks, now, like a very mini version of M. She likes to bang things so my one of my sisters has bought her a miniature drum kit. Just what we need, a 2 year old banging drums all day.
On the cat front, Klepto came in with a spoon after bringing in nothing for weeks. Middle Furrie was jealous of the attention this got and came in the day after with a dead mouse. The result of this is Elise can now say Dead Mouse, having been carefully tutored by Emily. This caused some exitment in Sainsbury’s because, suddenly, while sitting in the shopping trolley, she pointed at a shelf, which was full of Tomatoes, and shouted loudly, DEAD MOUSE. The chaos this caused had to be seen to be believed. Evidently, everyone nearby thought she’d really seen a dead mouse in-amongst the Tomatoes. I had to appologise.
Hope anyone that reads this is well. We are all fine.
Hope she has a wonderful day xx
