The initials BC must stand for ‘Busy Chap’. Benedict Cumberbatch is set to become the darling of geeks everywhere (if he isn’t already); not content with being the star of Sherlock, with a lead part in the next Star Trek movie, and with not one but TWO roles in The Hobbit movies, rumours abound that Cumberbatch will be the next incarnation of The Doctor’s greatest nemesis, The Master. According to this report, Britain’s Daily Express tabloid newspaper ran an article stating, ‘It’s fitting that the Doctor comes face to face with his ultimate enemy The Master for the 50th anniversary and it’s felt Benedict is the perfect choice if schedules can work.’
Exciting times for fans of Cumberbatch’s work! Doctor Who, The Hobbit, Star Trek, Sherlock – where will he pop up next? Hmmm – an actor from Star Trek taking a trip to Middle earth – remember the result the last time that happened? What’s that – you don’t?? Well, let us remind you. *insert evil laugh here….*
