A very short video of Ben Cumberbatch impersonating Alan Rickman

Revealing total cultural unawareness: Who is Alan Rickman and why would I want to watch someone impersonate him?

Um, Snape. The Odious Mr Slope. The romantic lead in Truly, Madly, Deeply. Sheriff of Nottingham in Kevin Costner's lousy version of Robin Hood. Bad guy in the first Die Hard movie. The "Spock" character in Galaxy Quest, Col. Brandon in the Emma Thompson version of Sense & Sensibility.

He's a favorite of some of us.

I don't see enough movies. And I don't pay enough attention to who plays what, obviously. Yes, Snape was very well done. Of the rest I've seen only "Galaxy Quest" and boy did I not make the connection between "Spock" and Snape. Thanks for the education. Will try to do better.

He played Mr Slope in The Barchester Chronicles. I think I recall you having seen that.

Alas, no. I read the books and love them. I wanted to see it, but I forget what, something, interfered.

Unless, of course, my advanced age has totally fried my memory. I do have gaps now and then.

Erm, was that supposed to be a *video*? Because what I saw was that still of Mr. Cumberbatch with audio of the interview stuff...just wondering if my Mac is acting up, or maybe my provider...

You know, it was very short and I confess that I didn't check too closely. I just saw it mentioned on Twitter, and thought I'd post it. It is, admittedly, a trifle.

A fun one, though. :^)
