Benedict Cumberbatch is cool...

[captain nemo1701]

He's been in Star trek & on stage with David Gilmour of Pink Floyd.

Now, he apparently saves cyclists:

That'scool in my book. His mum is cool too - she was in UFO years back.

the last series of Sherlock was shockingly poor though... so he loses Brownie points there.

I Reckon he staged it so he could leap in, 'rescue the cyclist, and thus get his face in the papers. He's not done a lot since he stopped playing Face in the A team.

Hilarious micky taking of his name in the comments, but all the same, well done Bendywank Candysnatch. Top bloke!

Fake news! Cumberbatch played Smaug not Sauron. I wonder how much else is wrong.

I should think it's common knowledge, his name on the cast list and all.......

That was the worst one, it helped the others by setting a low bar.

I once had the opportunity to run him over on the set of a made-for-tv miniseries with a Brox Compact. In the light of this latest news I'm almost glad I swerved

(Some years ago, episode 4 of the "Last Enemy", I was an extra in the protest scenes)

I'm sure I read that this actually happened last year, and the driver of the taxi/uber/whatever got out and waded in too, but nobody wants to claim him as a hero do they?
Personally I can't stand benthedick whatamunch, I think he's a tosser and he can't act for toffee and he's quite rude to people (well me) on facebook.
