    Description

    Long before he played a world-famous detective, a comic book superhero, or one of literature’s most famous dragons, Benedict Cumberbatch was robbed by a group of thieves in South Africa, who bound him up and threw him in the trunk of a car...and then drove him to what he thought would be an early death.
