An introvert isn’t always a shy person.

i-am-leon:

Introvert: Someone who focuses more inside his own mind than pays attention to what goes on around him. 

A shy person: Someone who’s socially anxious. 

Some introverts are actually really talkative, it’s just that they don’t always feel like talking; a shy person doesn’t have a choice. So you shouldn’t call every quiet person shy or anti-social. Sometimes, you’re just not interesting, and that person would rather spend time thinking to himself than listen to you.

Lara Pulver whacked Benedict too hard in Sherlock whipping scene

“The actress who played Irene Adler told TV biz: “Benedict said, ‘It’s all right, Lara, you can hit me harder.

“I was like, ‘Oh can I now, Benedict Cumberbatch?’

And she jokes that Benedict’s co-star, Martin Freeman - who plays Dr Watson - was nothing but trouble.

“He was like, ‘Oh, there she is. She’s naked and there’s her arse crack and off we go…’ “
