It’s good to play devil’s advocate at times, I believe. I can say now that I’m back into this, I truly do plan to source anything that can be sourced, I do have to add that a lot of what is posted here is opinion-driven. I can, however, promise to source any information that I’ve received outside of this blog!

I hope you all have missed me, I think we have a lot to talk about.

At the moment, I'm trying to catch up with all of the messages I've received over the past year, and working on a new blog entry, so stay tuned for that. 

Some updates: Shirley will no longer be posting here, this blog will only be run by me, Jane. I'll be trying to post an entry every few days. Messages are welcome, as always.

Becoming a celebrity: “It was just extraordinary,” he said. “I remember being really quite scared at the Twitter thing [a global army of online fans call themselves “Cumberbitches”]. I literally did expect [someone in] a helicopter with a Swat light to abseil down over my house. It was just, like, ‘Whoa, the whole world is suddenlyinterested, and a bit obsessed.’ Just because I’m in my thirties, it doesn’t make the weirdness of no longer being private any less. I don’t think it matters whether it happens when you’re 25 or 55, it’s just very odd. Something is suddenly taken away, and it’s weird.”

I think it's evident that he resents his fans for sort of taking over his life, he makes it clear that he isn't comfortable with the fandom, and even feels that they're obsessed. I've read this elsewhere but I can't find the article I'd read it in but it's along the lines of "People always want fucking pictures, like you need evidence of meeting someone". He can't stand his fans, he puts up with them but would rather not have to deal with them.

Ah yes, if you haven't already noticed 'Jane and Shirley' correlates to 'John and Sherly (Sherlock)'. We do enjoy his roles, that's why we were fans in the first place. He's had some great performances and he's great at what he does, but a lot of time a shit personality comes with that because people who get so much admiration let it get to their heads. And Benedict's basically done that. It's as if he thinks he's untouchable because he has some stans on the internet that defend his every move to the death. But some other good looking celebrity will come along and they'll forget about him.

So, we think he's a good actor (you can't deny that) and enjoy some of the roles he's played in. But as a personality, he's just shit. The things he says are so often uncalled for.

We have sourced some articles that swayed our opinions of him, but other than that, it's mostly just that our opinions of him. We will do better to site the information that we're talking about in our posts in the future, we were unaware that people would want that information, but we appreciate your messaging us about it.
