Benedict also gave some insight to the Sherlock fan about the next season of the show.

There’s something strangely addictive about seeing celebs from two different worlds – in this case, the world of sport and that of acting – come together.

Andy Murray and Benedict Cumberbatch met each other at a post-Wimbledon reception over the weekend after Andy won the Men's single championship.

I kid you not, the two are so completely enraptured with one another that the scene is like something out of a movie.

The two Brits said they were ‘massive fans’ of one another.

Andy was even allowed to grill Benedict about his hit TV series Sherlock. The actor revealed that he is currently filming the new season, and that there will only be three episodes in it.

Benedict then asked Andy about his infant daughter, who Ben replied is sleeping through the night.

It’s all so very lovely and dignified.
