Benedict's interview
"Cumberbatch, who is set to play an Edwardian aristocrat in BBC1 period drama Parade's End, said he enjoyed becoming a pin-up after Sherlock.
"It puts a bit of a spring in your step. It's nice, you swagger a little bit, it's enjoyable," he said.
The star added: "I've punched well above my weight this year. And that remains very much a secret ... I find it hysterically funny ... It's a giggle. I wield it with a massive smile."
Okay, I love Benedict Cumberbatch (who doesn't, I know). And I am massively intrigued by this statement. What is he saying? Is he saying that he's slept with a lot of very attractive women this year?? That his private parts are very large?? Wields what with a massive smile? His charm? His fame? His lower horn? *fans self* Is it warm in here?
