Benedict Cumberbatch met a feminist lumberjack.
Benedict Cumberbatch met a feminist...
Oh, hello!
[clears throat]
You caught me doing my standard
vocal warm-up exercises.
Actually, I'm glad you're here
because I've got a question for you.
Yes, you.
You who aren't paying attention.
Pay attention.
I suppose I should explain.
I am Benedict Cumberbatch, actor,
and I'm teaming up with Omaze
to fly you and a friend out to Los Angeles
to attend the world premiere of my next student film,
[movie trailer voice]: Avengers: Infinity War!
Which, for those of you who don't speak American accents,
is Avengers: Infinity War.
And seeing as, well, we'll be in LA at the same time,
it's the perfect opportunity for us to meet
for tea and delightful conversation.
"What will it be like to have tea with an actor?" you ask.
Well, I've prepared a short monologue for you
that should make things quite clear.
And go, actor.
I'm a little teapot, short and stout.
This is my handle, and this is my spout.
When I get all steamed up, hear me shout,
“Tip me over and pour me out.”
Release,
and I'm back. Hi.
It'll be exactly like that.
But the best part of this is that every donation
benefits The GEANCO Foundation.
Their mission is to save and transform
the lives of the poor and vulnerable in Africa,
and they're a charity very dear to my heart.
So for your chance to help with that great cause,
to have tea with me
and to win two, not one, but two tickets
to the premiere of Avengers: Infinity War,

Benedict.
Just once. I was saying that for clarity.
Now, if you'll excuse me,
I have a little bit more work to do on my warm- up, so...
Benedict Cumberbatch.
Benedict Cumberbatch.
Benedict Cumberbatch broke a delicate luggage rack.

See you in LA.
