Let's talk about Martin's socks
exactly my though
+Anna September *thought
i think they're amazing
Nilay Kiyilar yeah we need to talk
I spent the whole video staring at his socks now because of this comment
To be fair Steven Moffat, I would definitely watch a Lestrade spin-off where he solves nothing. :D haha
Not his division lmao
Idk why I just replied to an 5 years old comment
I liked it and it went to 666 and that is the reason I liked this comment I am fullfilled now.
YESS
I’d cry 😭😭❤️
Benedict: *giving advice about acting*
Martin: "everything he just said is bullshit!"
Me: *dies of laughter*
When they said that?
Gantogtokh Ulambayar around 32:00
I literally almost threw up I was laughing so hard!!!
That was me for about 10 minutes ngl XD
Seriously 😂
I love how Martin's and Ben's roles are sort of reversed in real life ... when Martin speaks you can see that Ben is immediately engaged and drawn in to what it is he is saying, while on the other hand Martin loves poking fun at Ben and going against what he says. But one thing is obvious: those two are good friends, and have had great fun together. That -- as both Moffat and Gatiss are fond of saying -- that's the show, right there.
I think that's the brilliance of the casting - Ben and Martin obviously tease strands of their real personalities,i.e, Martin's acerbic quips and Benedict's playfulness into their respective characters.
porcusuxor Ive heard They dont Get along off set?
xX Anime Xx They don’t, in the beginning they said they don’t see each other other than acting for Sherlock. If you see the bloopers, Martin usually wants to not laugh and get along with the scenes. But it’s almost much more fun when the cast is having fun.
Seeing each other outside of film sets can sometimes be hard, especially for A-Listers whose careers are positively blowing up as we speak -- and Martin is just a grumpy grandpa, whilst still being hilarious and adorable, he likes to get the the job done, and to get it done right. They're paying him by the hour to do what he's good at, and that's acting. I'm sure there were loads of outtakes that included Ben and Martin completely fussing around, unfortunately the outtakes available don't even reach 10 minutes, there's a lot we don't see. So I wouldn't be too concerned with how serious Martin can seem during those bloopers, that's just him making sure they all don't lose it with laughter (and if you're referring to one of the scenes I think you may be, the stabbed guard in the bathroom; there's the risk of losing continuity if they waste too much time not getting their lines out, I understand Martin's hurry). I never believe those rumours until there's hard evidence in front of my eyes!
Also they’re in like 3 fandoms together
"through his relationshi-FRIENDship with John"
caitlinisnottotallylame I must have missed that, when in the video was that said??
@@JessicaBerard95 4:02
o _p0tterhead thank you!!!
jOHnLocK conFirMeD-
Ha ha ha. It was at this moment he knew
He f|_|cked up
1:50 Amanda's lost high five is the history of my life.
Oh wow never noticed that! Poor amanda haha
Sad I was like "Martin how could you she was trying to be cheerful"
That’s hard to watch
This is probably where their divource began
@@davemilton1587 Break up. They were never married.
Two pairs of married couples and then there's benedict- I VOLUNTEER AS YOUR WIFE
Wait what - 2 pairs of married couples: Martin and Amanda yes. Who is the other one?
Whoops. I had no idea that Steve and Sue were together.
To bad Benedict is gay :P But i wish all of them good luck in life :D
FiGirl84 What?? Benny isn't gay? I would have known by now???? and he had (or maybe has?) a girlfriend?
FiGirl84 he's not gay.
I love how at 30:24 Benedict laughs even before Martin says the punch line because he already got what he was going to say XD
Pilin
Are we seriously just going to ignore that simultaneous head turn at 30:49
Damn that looked cool!!
Reputation is never really loud ;)
That was hilarious
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Do you even know what does "Simultaneous" means?
_Cuz I don't_
38:31 "Oh Benedict, pull yourself together." Adorable.
07:43 "Who else would end up with Martin Freeman? There isn't anyone else he's credible with," and cast's reaction xD They obviously ship Johnlock.
+Nekolies Ben's face is amazing
Nekolies Martin's reaction is priceless!
Nekolies and did anyone else do a little squeal with Bens jaguar chuckle at 11:30?
Martin and Benedict are so cute
We watched the same video but I don't see the "obvious johnlock shipping" anywhere. Where did this delusion came from?
my favourite line is " He is cluing for looks" 😂😂😂
"Anything everybody says about me makes me sound like a fucking dog."
ITS 2AM AND I FUCKING LOST IT AT THAT PART OH MY GOD MARTIN
DUDE SAME ITS ALSO TWO AM HERE
Half past 2am.
Now I feel special! ^^
LANE BOγ, its 9
PULL YOURSELF TOGETHER BENEDICT!
They all seem like such nice people.
So true! It seems they're so at ease with each other they can tease and joke around :) I'm enjoying their interviews almost as much as the actual series lol
SUE: "Ok? I'm in charge" LOL XD
gerard
Milk Friend r u gerard
"you're loyal and lovely" S4 JOHN SAYS OTHERWISE
34:39

28:15 - Martin:"My inner catholic wants me to be rigorous and strict about being the way we were four year ago.."
Ben:(mumbles) :"my inner protestant...not as strict just saying.."
Martin:"ya you pussies!"
The battle continues since 1534...

his wife's reaction is priceless, my god.
30:28 aww he's (Martin) adorable. The way he stumbles over his words and gets quitter at the end where Amanda strokes the side of his head
"OH, BENEDICT, PULL YOURSELF TOGETHER!"
XD I'm dying!
I absolutely love this :)
I died :D
34:41 34:42 ben loves martin awww
omg i really liked when amanda said "and I liked marrying you", benedic's smile in that moment asdfghjl
Yes he is clearly very fond of both of them. Martin's look was lovely too, it almost seemed like he very briefly and slightly teared up.
Hahahaha I loved when they looked at eachother at 30:47
OMG they have so much chemestry . I wish they were a real life couple. Their cuteness together is priceless
Benedict there, fifth wheeling 😂👍💕
17:25 "I can't believe they kept that in! I saw it! That was just me trying to make Ben laugh!" Martin is Soo sweeet!! I love him and Ben!! 😍 #MartinFreemanIsBae #BenedictCumberbae
Sorry, what episode was that in?
sign of three, i believe. it’s during the retelling of the stag night.
@@deadpoetssociety8126 45-47 minutes in for anyone still browsing the comments.
Moffat knows about our fanfics.
This scares me... Yet makes me happy.
That's weird...
Hopefully you grew up in the last 5 years
@@FFeras 🤨
snappy sue anyone that writes/reads fanfics is a weirdo.
@@FFeras why tho
snappy sue you’re making sexual stories on two straight guys. It’s weird.
I find the way they all talk over each other absolutely heartwarming. it's like I'm watching a cozy family dinner. Also, I want to find something in this life that I love as much as Ben loves acting. That's definitely a man who's found his life's passion and I could listen to him speak about it forever.
Few ppl actually get that. Everyone strives for it but life goes on and eventually most, by far, just get a job.
If ppl weren't lied to, so that institutions could make millions, they would try for a position on the short list that is available to them and find a better life balance incorporating other relatuonships and activities into their lives.
wow, what a blast from the past this is
"Gay club scene-"
**WHEEZES** **CHOKES ON WATER** **DIES**
I NEED THAT SOO BADDD
Is it on the deleted scenes of any DVD?
HAHAHAHAHAHAH
Haha
15:40
Moffat: _please don’t mention the gay club_
Martin: I‘m about to end this man‘s whole career
I'm so sad that Amanda and Martin split.
Sonia Charales I agree, but they are still good friends and I hope it will last long. However, Benedict and his wife are expecting a newcomer! I can't wait, Christopher (their first son) will be a great brother. Although I don't know if they've taken an Ultrasound test yet, so I don't know the gender.
Iridescent_Petrichor that's true
Iridescent_Petrichor NOOO!!! THAT MEANS LESS SHERLOCK!!!!
same :(((
Ross.White98 not necessarily that's why they killed her off at the start of s4
i love how martin is "playing the drums" on his knees during the whole interview! :D
Maybe that's also why he was compared to John Simm (all Whovians will get this)
+D Way I see what you did there 😁
FacilityManagerdesAsozialenNetzwerks - thats a code
Martin does that a lot. I was more surprised when Ben did something like this at 25:41
@@delaneyw5115 oh yesss thats why the drums were so familiar. Damn it
36:36 all of them are just sitting there glaring... lol
Aaron Drummond nice pic
When they where referring to Benedict Cumberbatch as Ben I was so confused I was like who is Ben ??
Wow, really? I always call Ben "Ben" myself. xD
Klavier Gavin I call him Benny xD
KayCee Schulz
But Benny sounds like a little child.. Ben sounds more cool imo. :/
Benny doesn't suit him. And he doesn't like to be called that. Ben or Benedict is better. ;)
Nomoredrama2000
Agreed. ;)
The amount of times I've watched this is unreal.
SAME
Same.
SaMe
not the same, please elaborate
for me, i just love seeing the interaction between martin and ben, because it is observed so seldomly, and besides that, i love bbc sherlock and loved s3...
I love on 3:26 when the interviewer says that the Chinese probably love Benedict Cumberbatch and he goes "Me?"
I wish Andrew Scott was here
MORIARTY!!!
Spooky Jenn same
@@avocadosatlaw9406 CAS! CASTIEL! My fave angel. :D
100% yh
And Mycroft
15:44 "fucking hell" Benedict swearing is my new favorite thing on earth
29:10 sounds like when Sherlock miscounts when he makes the vow in TSoT :)
Omg yeah 😂
Sherlock has the best cast ever. I just love it.
"Dammit Benedict, pull yourself together"
I don't know why, but i love Amanda's face, her eyes are so sparkly and full of life!
"..you are like Mary..in that case that..you have..-"
"boobs?"
xDD
also I appreciate that they kept this whistling sound Martin does to make Benedict laugh..xD
Time stamp?
33:40
33:30 is better
"A fandom is the cradle of the next generation of creative people."
Amen. Bravo. Hear hear.
When Ben was speaking about his mother talking to him even when he's leaving and practically down the stairs, she's still talking, I get that completely. XD
Martin:"your like Sherlock"
Benedict :"Oh God... "
like if you started laughing when benedict couldn't stop laughing
If John and Mary's baby is a girl, I would love to see the relationship grow between Sherlock and the little girl. She would be this tiny little wonder that he just can't figure out. He'd be so awkward around her as she takes to him adoringly. Eventually, she would have him wrapped around her little finger. If it is a boy, I can imagine him being an inquisitive little boy following Sherlock everywhere asking all sorts of questions. The boy would eventually be a prodigy of Sherlock. Either way, I would love to see Sherlock's relationship with this child grow, adding a new dimension to his character. ♥
OH MY GOD. This just gave me feels. (And some Johnlock feels which you probably weren't intending to give me but well, here we go again)
It is a girl :)
Sherlock would be an awesome uncle ^^
Picture this: Sherlock babysitting the girl ^^
This gave me so many feels. I can imagine Sherlock already. Maybe stuck babysitting and just sitting across from the little girl staring at her not knowing what to do. ❤️😊😄
"And I can't wait for 4-5 years before we make the next series" Hahahahaha He better be joking -_-
Clue: Well, he wasn't. Do you think there's ever going to be another season of BBC's 'Sherlock'? Cause the end title of season 4 "The Final Problem" was pretty concrete you know. :D
ACD wrote a lot of stories after The Final Problem. Even the creators/producers have said that just because the episode was called The Final Problem it doesnt mean that there wont be another season.
Dexter Desmond Quentin they are planning for another season but the problem is that their schedules don’t have any free time that lines up until 2022/2023
5 years later and im about to scream as to if were getting a 5th season or not.
Nothing...
Fun Fact: Benedict Cumberbatch & Martin Freeman both appeared in the same show, "Sherlock." However, these two talented actors are now appeared in Marvel Cinematic Universe in each different roles. Benedict Cumberbatch will be next Doctor Strange in upcoming "Doctor Strange" and Martin Freeman already appeared as Everett K. Ross in "Captain America: Civil War" which came out already in the same year of 2016. Well Sherlock fans I hope you enjoy these two in each Marvel film and that's a good compliment from the MCU crew.
They have to give Martin Freeman at least a cameo in Dr. Strange!
Felipe Rico Also both of them were in The Hobbit. Martin as Bilbo and Benedict as Smaug
In LOTR too
alexam19, he played the voice, it was epic
Seriously?! I've watched that movie at least 5 times already on netflix, and I've never noticed him in it before!!
Edit: I just watched the scene, and I can't recognize him from his American accent lol
30.35 "Exactement" 😭 He says one word in french ! I can die in peace 😂
Me too!
30:35
Ananas • J'ai peté un câble mdrr
Mounacarla pareil tqt, en plus comment il l'a sorti 😂
Mdrrr j’avoue
i love Martin's expressions. his the king of reactions - 7:47 he looks at the camara and frowns while smiling as to say "really?!" - and Benedict is a humble nice guy.
Nina ifallintofantasy Elliget That work on the office gave him the sixth sense of knowing where the nearest camera is lol
Amanda: "I loved shooting you..." * points at Benedict * "... and I loved marrying you" * points at Martin *
And then the "boobs" answer OMG!!!! I SO love her she's so witty!!!!
re lax I'll never understand why for God's sake they split up 😖😭😭😭😭
Yasss, She's a Queen I love Amanda and I love her as Mary.
I love how Mary is badass and so is Amanda they both have similarities they're funny as fck and they're both lovable and adorable.
When Amanda said that to Martin, I couldn’t help but see that as a sign. Martin, she wants you to ask her! Put a ring on it and commit!
I could be wrong though.
John Watson reminds me of Fix It Felix Jr. from the movie Wreck It Ralph.
They are both "oh so adorable".
You're making him sound like a fucking dog
;)
"Lestrade investigates...not a f*ck'n clue" Haha oh Moffat! I love that idea and would adore seeing that in production weird as it may seem.
1:47 "All around me are familiar faces"
30:24 Ben's reaction :DDD
Omg when Benedict laughs and then can't stop. The moment is gold, and my reaction would b the same!! Moffat is like the the adult and everyone else are his kids... 😆😆
15:23 - Ben's smile immediately after Amanda said it and
" That was just me trying to make Ben laugh "
I LOVE THEM❤❤❤
Same
At 26:00 26:05 I heard in my head “I’m not actually gay” clear as anything
I didn't join the fandom until after season 3... partly because id run out of stuff to watch and partly because id heard it was really good.this show ruined my fucking life, and I really don't care
this literally is exactly what happened to me
I joined 1 month ago, u couldn't enjoy the s2 ending
I wish I had joined later now because I don't want to be left on a cliffhanger when series 4 ends ;3;
+Feline Kitty paws it isn't exactly a cliffhanger
They kind of are though because when every series ends you just want to know what happens next
The moment you are looking for is 32:02
29:19 "I liked shooting you. And I liked marrying you." 30:07 "I really also loved again in episode 3 when we were watching - I feel like an 8 year old! watching all the soldiers walk up and down. That was great I loved that. I really really loved that. (Amanda rubs his arm) I also liked it when we did really ruff stuff you know. (Benedict starts cracking up) Yeah and I you know was thinking violent thoughts." "Like when you were getting married" Oh my gosh! I love these actors!! They are just- they are so funny!
OMG Martin's socks
BENEDICT STOP BEING SO PERFECT I SWEAR TO GOD
hehe Martin Freeman gets the best socks award
Martin is the most fiddly person in showbiz. Someone give him a rubriks cube or something!
Lovely, lovely guy!
He's haunted by the war
Why does Martin Freeman get continuously and progressively attractive with age?
'And he has two normal f*cking amazing parents.' The fact that he's (Benedict) talking about his own parents makes me go AAAaAah
WTF THERE WAS A GAY CLUB SCENE I WANT IT
Martin: Everything that's said about me makes me sound like a fucking dog.
Ben: ... well, you have a good ... bite.
Me: And how do you know this, Ben? LOL
porcusuxor 🌚🌚🌚🌚🌚
When
34:49 ;)
the bit where they give advice to upcoming actors is the sweetest. Amanda is the best when she says "you have a right to be there"
I love what Moffat says about fanart and fandom stuff in general! Totally agree on it being something the creators of the show can't and shouldn't engage in. Fandom and fanart is mostly sharing things from fans to fans and not supposed to be something the actual actors &creators take part in.
Where does he talk about that part?
Martin: "His fingers are like cricket bats"
Ben: "Like an elm [tree] in your face"
Hahaha, these two are just as funny off screen XD
steven: "we didnt lose a viewer that episode" "everyone loved it"
meanwhile what was going through the johnlock shippers' heads: *crying violently into a pillow* and or "FUCKIN SHIT IS THIS? JESUS FUCK ARE YOU FUCKING SERIOUS!? C'MON JOHN!!"
you described my reaction exactly!
It's fiction; these things happen. I'm not really into Johnlock, but I can sympathize.
Addicted to Data thank you, we appreciate it.
Preach!
Bridgey Anne I'm a Johnlock shiper, but I love this ep. We see how hard Sherlock is in love with John.
And the drunk scene omg
30:49 That synchronized head turning towards Benedict is everything! 😂😍😍
Loved this. Martin busting Ben's sincere, mushy bubble was hilarious. Moffat was funny and had his usual sass, the whole thing was great.
Amanda's and Martin's faces when Moffat talks about Amanda's role as Mary and who else would work well with Martin....Best Ever!
When Steven makes the Johnlock sex joke looool
I've never seen a man in his late thirties have a giggle fit over a phallic joke.
I couldn't catch it, what was the joke? :((
tmbzizu "It doesn't see daylight for long" basically means that the penis is inside a vagina, anus or mouth before anyone can get the chance to see it. Basically, Moffat is implying that in the pornographic fan arts, Sherlock's dick is usually inserted somewhere, so he can't tell if he's as "well endowed" as Ben would like to hear.
Apologies for the explicit nature and possible need for a shower.
Kitty Grimm Okay thanks it's soooo funny now :D :D Thank you^^
Most men don’t grow beyond the age of fifteen mentally.
when?
Fave moments:
29:20 "I like shooting you, and I like marrying you."
30:48 *head turn*
33:32 "boobs."
I love the support and approval they all give us fans concerning fanfiction and fan art in this fandom. Especially when Steven express his feelings about it in the end!
Benedict: Porn?
So innocent sounding xD
I love how this show's like a family bussiness. Everyone's related to each other somehow.
I was there! Best 40 minutes of my life!!!!!
Bailey Warner, I hate you. I wanted to go
Bailey Warner, I don't really hate you I'm just jealous
Bailey Warner lucky
I would cry honestly but really that must of been amazing
Aren't Freeman and Cumberbatch both glorious from that proximity
34:20 is my oxygen
I love Martin's socks xD
If they'd just stop doing interviews for a month, they could shoot 3 more episodes.
L0L! Still tho! TODAY AT 9!!! Ahhhhh
Ha
They're people. Their work is not their life.
I know, right? STOP KILLING US!!!
I actually enjoy the Sherlock crew's interviews almost as much as the series... specially when there are several of them, like in this one.
"4 or 5 years"
6 years later: ☹
GIVE US THE BLOODY SCENE
29:26 awwww :D audience liked it
Benedict not being able to stop laughing tho.. omfg LMFAO
Amanda to Martin: you're loyal and lovely!
Martin: everything anyone says about me makes me sound like a fucking dog xD
OMG diyinggggggggg
30:20 this is part is so funny and ben's face when martin starts to say: "when we did yk really rough stuff" hahahahshh😂💕
When amanda tried to high five Martian at the beginning and he didn't see 😂 #cringe
Kiteralla Omg yes I felt so sorry for her tbh😂
Kiteralla hahaha
Cringe level 999999999
😂😂
Reminded me of Pewdiepie😂😂
Martin* 😂
17:52 you know they’re British when they sit like that....
Nice catch
Seriously 🤣
Oh my god! When Moffat mentioned the Johnlock porn!!! Ben's reaction was a little too intrigued! And how he kept giggling about it! Moffat: Oh Benedict, get a hold of yourself! Bless them!
Wait when?-

@@Erthalni oop thanks :3
Season 3 is my absolute favourite season, Sherlock is so human and emotional in this one. He cries, he smiles, he laughs (and most of the time it’s all because of John).
And here I am, six years later, still wanting to see the gay-club scene
"everything he just said is bullshit!" , That was the best !!!
