Benedict Cumberbatch was abducted in South Africa in 2005.
He was driving with friends at night when their tire blew and they pulled over to the side of the road. They were ambushed by men with guns. "I was then put in the boot of the car, and at one point my shoelaces were bound to my wrists," he told Marc Maron. "They eventually left us alone once we gave them cards and money. But because of needing to take the card to a bank machine, it lasted for two and a half hours."
Thank you for your service. The country owes you brave patriot!
"Larry, I fail..."
There, got that corrected for you.
