I worked with Timothy Carlton, when he was a young man, and Timothy said to me: ‘My real surname’s Cumberbatch. But I mean… can you imagine trying to have success as an actor with a name like Cumberbatch?’

Is this from when Timothy was in The Scarlet Pimpernel? I remember watching that in my early teens.
