	I believe Martin Freeman did genuinely make a delightfully pissy face when Sherlock lost an award to The Only Way Is Essex a few years ago, but Downton Abbey is a critically acclaimed drama and TOWIE is ... TOWIE. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D9rUwR53fvs (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Oh wow, thanks for that clip. That was a very sad and annoyed face he made. Benedict Cumberbatch (and a few other people) look pretty stunned too. (I live in the U.S. and to be honest this is the first time I've heard of The Only Way Is Essex. I gather it's not exactly the pinnacle of quality television.) (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	I don't follow any of them, but I gather TOWIE is in the same vein as something like The Hills or Laguna Beach? So ... yeah. I can kind of get being annoyed at losing to something like that. To be fair, though, I think it was a 'public vote' award, not a merit award. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	Maybe I didn't watch for long enough, but his first reaction shot seemed more baffled than pissy... Not that I'd blame him for being cranky for losing out to that garbage. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	I think there's only one reaction shot of his face (and one of Benedict Cumberbatch later on). Baffled definitely isn't the word I'd use to describe it, but to everyone their own interpretations. ^_^ (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

I'd say it was more along the lines of a mix of "What the hell" and "Are you kidding me", myself. Cumberbatch looked like he was thinking, "Yep, too many people have no taste."

And was it just me, or did the audience as a whole seem rather put out about TOWIE winning? The applause came across as rather disjointed and half-hearted; not counting the screaming, squeeing, and cheering of the winners themselves, of course.

	Nope, the crowd seemed to be just as 'WTF?' as Martin. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

That's what I meant. They were like, "Should I clap? It's not a good show but it did win, so I should probably clap." *clap* (pause) *clap* "Oh, now others are doing it better, I should too." *clap**clap* "The winners look happy, so I'll clap for their happiness. Oh, that makes the clapping much easier." *clap, clap, clap*

And I hope that makes sense to someone other than me.
