yay, it gets its own post!!! lol…..Ben looks handsome, as always <3 i love the pictures of him and Georgie too (she looks gorgeous!)

hey did anyone else notice that all of the guys are wearing bowties?? i wonder if there is a reason for it (i'm so curious about it!)

Kimbers said:

Maybe they are wearing bowties because it’s a Royal Gala? Anyway, Ben looks scrumptious in his!

Kim said:

These are so great. Too bad he couldn’t meet the queen :(

Bowties are standard with tuxedos.

Kimbers said:

Oh, and I also wanted to say that my favourite one is the snowy one of Ben – how picturesque! And I hope he didn’t hang around in the snow too long having photos, etc. (which of course he most probably did because he is an incorrigible gentleman!). Mwah! Mwah! Love you Ben!

Oh how lovely – I was thinking about Ben all afternoon and whether he was at the premiere (right now here he will be in the middle of Birdsong).

He looks so handsome, as always. I adore the pics with Georgie! She looks beautiful, such a lovely young woman (reminds me of my daughter, who is not quite a year older than Georgie).

I love his bow tie (and Kim, just fyi what you call a “tuxedo” we call a “dinner jacket” over here!

Thank you Steph :-)

Amazing pictures! Gosh, Ben is breathtaking! *-*

Wow, it was an exciting afternoon!! (Well, for me it was afternoon… lol)

@Nicole – I love his pictures with Georgie too!! He looks dashing and she looks so pretty!

Yeah, I noticed all the guys are wearing bowties, they’re all so elegant! I think Kimbers is right, maybe it’s because it’s a Royal Gala. :)

Geo said:

Ohmy! How amazing these pics are! Awesomeness. This is called awesomeness. Ben is gorgeous. SO GORGEOUS. He is really handsome.
And Georgie! Oh my God, she has grown so much! I was really surprised. And she’s stunning!
Nice photos. Really really nice photos. I almost screamed here because of them. Thanks Steph.

@bleep! – It’s because we’re talking about the pics we saw on Getty Image, where there’re photos of the whole cast. :)

I’ve just read something very sweet that Aslan’s Country wrote about Ben:

“Earlier tonight, Ben Barnes – Dawn Treader’s King Caspian – chose to perform in Birdsong rather than stay for the world premiere in 3D and meet Queen Elizabeth II. Ben made a sacrifice. He made a personal and painful choice to uphold his contract. And I think he made the right choice. We Narnia fans are sorry you couldn’t stay for the world premiere, Ben. But we support your choice!”

http://www.aslanscountry.com/2010/11/aslan%e2%80%99s-meditations-a-sweet-sacrifice/

I couldn’t agree more! ^^

November 30th, 2010

Galene said:

@Helaine I totally agree with it too – right choice :)

November 30th, 2010

kell said:

Ben and Georgie look so gorgeous. I glad he kept his commitment to Birdsong. Didn’t he say he was going to the after party. But anyway he looks so handsome in these pictures, and I am sure he wanted to stay to meet the queen. But he did what he thought was right, and I agree with him 100%.

“Bowties are standard with tuxedos.” — are they? i didn’t know that…hmm, i figured that a man just wears a regular tie with a tuxedo. i’m not a man (or British) so i have no idea what is considered proper with tuxedos and royal gala stuff and whatnot

@Helaine — that’s a sweet little note that AC wrote to Ben — i’m glad they support him as we do! i bet it was a really tough choice for him to make, but i think he made the right decision as well :)

Girls, let me share my happiness with you! I’ve just won tickets for a preview screening of Dawn Treader on my birthday, December 5th!!! I’m SO happy!! *___*

“I love the fact that everybody has a different hour, and that we come from all around the world!^^”
@Ananas – I love it too! It’s amazing how our love for Ben “allows” us to get to know people from all over the world! ^^

@*Caroline* – Thanks for the video!! ^^

@Nicole – Yeah, I’m sure it was a really hard choice for him to make. In this video that *Caroline* posted, he said he felt devastated about missing the Queen… Poor Ben… :(

November 30th, 2010

FL said:

Helaine, I’m so happy for you! and on your birthday too! :D

thank you evrybody for the links, they made my day! too bad that Ben missed the queen T.T I hope there’ll be pics from the after-party too…he said he would attend that didn’t he?

November 30th, 2010

Nicole L. said:

@Helaine — YAAAAAY!! that’s awesome!

@FL — i think he is supposed to be at the after-party, yes

November 30th, 2010

FL said:

ooh pix from after-party has started to come out…let’s hope there’ll be more group photo!

December 1st, 2010

Ananas said:

I LOVE the pics of the after-party! With that suit, and tie, and coat, he is perfect! <3
I wonder why he changed his clothes? I can't remember if that's what he is wearing in Birdsong, but I don't think so!

Helaine, on December 5th!! That's really early xD
So I guess you'll be the first to see it, and you'll have to make a full review of it =p
There are also premieres on December 5th in France, I hope I'll have time to go!^^

December 1st, 2010

FL said:

Ananas, as far as i know the cast of a movie always change into different clothes for the after-party (e.g. Harry Potter ;) )

Mandi said:

It was a good think for him to stay and do the play. He didn’t leave on excellent terms with the London Theatre Circuit when he left History Boys to do Caspian. He’s trying to make up for past transgressions. And, not to insult the English, but the Queen seems rather dull… Give me Wills and I might make mountains move to be in his presents. LOL

Thanks, mamy2k4! It`s wonderful! :)

Ben is such a class act looking very dapper. A true stunner. And I truly cannot wait to watch the film moreso now than before. It is sad he missed out on meeting the Queen, I commend him for such a bold sacrifice for his art. Good man.

Also, I might be mistaken but it appears as if he went to the after party right off the stage in his navy blue Birdsong suit. :)

December 1st, 2010

*Caroline* said:

Thanks mamy2k4!

It was fake snow?!? And I kept thinking it was real and how appropriate it was LOL!!

December 1st, 2010

mamy2k4 said:

I understood that at the start it was real snow, but then it was fake. But I’m not very sure because my english is very halting!!

“I actually sang a song at her 80th birthday party while she was having her dinner. I was singing a rather sort of lustful song in fact so I hope I didn’t put her off her dinner.”

“Ben just told a funny story about singing for the Queen on his 18th bday and the real reason he has to skip the premiere and do his show.”

discordant information ;)

December 1st, 2010

Ananas said:

Thanks for the vids!!

I don’t think it was fake snow, was it? Because when you see all the fans waiting, it’s real snow! And as there is snow all over Europe, I thought there was also in London! xD
Soo, somebody who went to the premiere and could help us?^^

Haha, so cute the way Georgie is stressed about meeting the queen^^

December 1st, 2010

Helaine said:

@Ananas – Ok, I’ll give you a full review, trying not to give spoilers though… =P

@Ana Cláudia – Hey! I’m from Brazil too! :)

@mamy2k – Thanks for the videos!! *-*

@Galene – I think the MSN’s information is more reasonable than the other one. Why the heck Ben would be singing to the Queen on *his* birthday? It wouldn’t make sense… lol

December 1st, 2010

Ana Cláudia said:

Helaine @ – I’m happy to know that I am not only in Brazil, who loves Ben. My dream is to attend Birdsong, but until when? I was planning to go on vacation, but I do not give up.

@ Nightshade – Ben is really wonderful and fragrant? I love smelling man. kkkk

Wow…I really didn’t think it was possible for him to look more handsome than he did already but he looks absolutely stunning….breathtaking… I’ll stop drooling now! The pictures are fab, Georgie looks gorgeous and it looked like a lot of fun! Bless them for braving the snow.
