William Golding's 'To The Ends Of The Earth' -- Benedict Cumberbatch plays Edmund Talbot "When I heard about the gap year of teaching English at a Tibetan monastery, I knew I had to do something about it really quickly otherwise it was going to get allocated..."I was very decisive. I worked for six months to drum up the finance as it was voluntary - there was no income. I worked in Penhaligon's the perfumery for almost five months and I did waiting jobs..."The monastery was a fantastic experience; you lived your life by very limited means, although you were given board and lodgings. While I was there some of us went to Nepal for two weeks and did white water rafting and we camped out under the stars."
Brambletye Senior Verse Speaking Competition "Mr Fowler-Watt reminded us that many professional actors first ‘cut their teeth’ on the Brambletye stage, including Benedict Cumberbatch"
