I had trouble believing that this character and the star of "Sherlock", Benedict Cumberbatch were unrelated, but Google does turn up a whole clan. Benedict's career seems to go back only to 2001, so there may be no connection. Perhaps it's just that very few Cumberbatches ever emigrated. --Old Dickens 03:03, 18 April 2011 (CEST)

Technical note: 80dB (SPL) isn't all that loud. Any decent town crier could do a lot better. --Old Dickens 03:11, 14 July 2011 (CEST)

Actually, Samuel Taylor Coleridge joined up with the British army with the false name Silas T. Cumberbatch (or Comberbache).--Stanley Howler 21:48, 30 May 2012 (CEST)
