Benedict Cumberbatch caught on video in heated cycling confrontation over running a red light in London

Benedict Cumberbatch got into a heated exchange with a fellow cyclist in London.

The "Doctor Strange" star was caught on video getting off of his bike and confronting an unknown man who accused him of running a red light.

"You’re deluded, you’re lying. I was behind you the entire time," the unknown cyclist said in the video.

Cumberbatch told the man he was "verbally" abusing him. "Oh no, I verbally abused the guy who completely repeatedly broke the law," the man said. "I did it once," Cumberbatch replied.

The eyewitness said that Cumberbatch and the other cyclist "blocked the lane so no one else could get through." The man who saw the incident said that the unknown biker followed Cumberbatch until he would pull his bike over.

"The masked guy was obviously some kind of vigilante — he was really taken aback when he saw it was Benedict Cumberbatch, but he doubled down on his rage," the witness said.

The man added, "I don’t condone dangerous driving, but for this guy to follow him and cause an incident like this was worse than Benedict slowly cutting that light."

Jim Gaffigan says comedy audiences are tired of political drama and just want to laugh again

Comedian Jim Gaffigan revealed in an interview why he's mostly steering clear of politics in his stand-up material these days. Gaffigan told Variety that comedy fans don’t attend stand-up shows to hear lectures. They go to escape the real world and simply laugh at silly jokes. When the interviewer mentioned the recent crossover between comedy and politics, Gaffigan responded, "People are coming to a show to have a break from some of this drama. That’s not to say there aren’t great comedians who talk about social commentary. The spirit of George Carlin is very important."  And he recalled his political jokes after President Donald Trump's first election victory in 2016 not landing how he'd imagined.
