I was watching a show where a woman who was suspected of witchcraft demonstrated that things she knew about people that she could not possibly know came from her "powers" of observation: She could tell that someone worked at shearing sheep from the condition of his hands, and because "he reeks of mutton." ;D (She was also an accomplished herbalist.)

Wouldn't take a keen observer of anything. People who are around livestock, reek of it. No special powers of anything needed. Just a decent working nose.

Well, then, I guess it's a good thing--or maybe not--that you weren't a consultant on the script.

Here's a brief article and look at Benedict Cumberbatch's parents. He has his dad's face and his mother's eyes and smirk. :)

Haha, "mutant super-thespian" indeed!
I watched the Hound sequence last night, falling asleep several times and had nightmares about the hound! Oh, when will the new season be ready?

Scary! :o
Hopefully the fall...but likely for us in the US, next spring. >:(
But I'll get my Benedict fix next month when he comes out in Star Trek 2.
