Welcome to The Batch on Sunday: your online-home for all things CumberVic
The Batch on Sunday reports!
Ever the resilient professional, Benedict Cumberbatch does not take bad reviews lightly. After an underwhelming performance in Sex with you-know-who, he attempts a comeback with a guest stint in Midnight Snog: long-awaited sequel and an integral part of writer-turned-director Vic Briggs’s Dreamscapes Epic.
The Batch on Sunday was astonished that Cumberbatch got a return invite all things considered, so we take this opportunity to interview co-star Vic Briggs on their latest joint project.
BoS: “Now that Midnight Snog has moved into post-production, can you tell our readers whether Cumberbatch’s snogging was up to par, or was it another ‘between the sheets’ fiasco?”
VB: “It was a relief to see him back in form. Of course, it is always tough to film intimate scenes, even for someone of Ben’s calibre and proficiency.”
BoS: “You last crossed swords with Cumberbatch over Sex with you-know-who. Given that you’ve described his –ahem – shall we say enactment? …as ‘rubbish’ and ‘absolute crap’, can we assume there was a lot of tension on set to start with?”
VB: “You’ll have to be the judge of that once the sequel is out.”
BoS: “Vic, you appear determined to be coy about it. Well, we all like a little mystery, but a preview would be nice.”
VB: “He-he. Ben was gracious about it. And there was certainly no trace of former wooden-ness in his performance. I speak for everyone, Benedict included; I’m sure, in hoping that was one limp act he can leave behind.”
BoS: “Is it fair to say that he’s keen to court your good opinion after the Sex with you-know-who disaster?”
VB: “He certainly wouldn’t take no for an answer. Ben is one determined cookie and a deliciously talented one too. But you’ll have to watch Midnight Snog to find out more.”
No flop then! With this The Batch on Sunday bids farewell to the Dreamscapes Epic director. If Vic Briggs keeps it up, we are in for one busy season. Watch this space, #BenedictCumberbatch aficionados everywhere!

Glad to hear it. If only The Batch on Sunday became a daily, hey? But we can’t expect Ben’s presence on such a regular basis given his busy schedule. I’m sure there are Ben-scapes mushrooming everywhere. The man’s got to get a chance to rest now and then 😉
I dunno how to do the smileys, so this is the best one I can crack ;0)
