Fans may be able to guess which of Freeman’s performances made his co-star cry – Cumberbatch is certainly not alone in having shed a tear during the mobile phone conversation at the end of series two finale The Reichenbach Fall, in which John tries to persuade Sherlock not to jump from the roof of St Bart’s hospital.
“I couldn’t see Martin’s face [during filming] obviously,” said Cumberbatch, “he was just a little blob on the pavement, waiting for a bigger blob to land by his feet… [but later] it was really wonderful to see what he’d done on the other end of that phone conversation - I could hear it [at the time] but to see it was really, really, really moving and, him being in shock afterwards, it’s ridiculous but it made me cry.”
