I felt quite lucky to have been able to go to London and see STID again, this time acompanied by the amazing 21st Century Symphony Orchestra and in the very impressive surrounding the Royal Albert Hall undeniably is.. The RAH filled up with a very diverse audience, we even spotted some Klingons in the stalls! Seeing […]
Before Benedict gave us his bit of “legal dancing,” his love of music had already been shared with interviewers – and taken to heart and head by his fans. It may have not been a Top Tunes list, but music is acknowledged to be one of Benedict’s many passions, and his appreciation for Friendly Fires,* the English indie band […]
Recent media coverage could make one wonder if Benedict Cumberbatch embarked on a goodwill tour as an ambassador for British fashion, British independent film – and British charitable works.

How To Disappear Completely by Radiohead is such a difficult song for me. I listened to it for the very first time after Benedict had mentioned his really surreal and heart wrenching history with the song it in this wonderful Two Paddocks article: “The only reason for honing onto this track as opposed to any […]
