Benedict Cumberbatch Is A Master Of Sex Scenes

Oscar-nominated actor Benedict Cumberbatch is no stranger to sex scenes: In fact, he's taken on the role of passionate lover in many a film, much to the delight of his Cumberbitches. Even his portrayal of Sherlock Holmes in the critically acclaimed BBC One series Sherlock(which you should watch immediately if you haven't already. Seriously, stop what you're doing and get your Internet browser over to Netflix right now) has allowed for him to, thankfully, show off his sex appeal on occasion. Oh yes, Cumberbatch can devastate you with his deep, sultry voice — and his body isn't bad either, a fact that, of course, deserves just as much celebration.

Over the course of his career, Cumberbatch has stripped down, made out, and sexed up quite a few times. So, to pay tribute to that amazing fact, I've collected 18 of his steamiest moments for your personal, ah... enjoyment. (Look, there's no judgment here. Only Benedict Cumberbatch love.) But first, since it wouldn't be right just to jump in to sexybatch time, let's set the tone by reading Cumberbatch's own description of how Sherlock would execute a sex scene:

I would be devastating. I’d know exactly how to please a woman, I’d know exactly where to put my fingers, where to put my tongue, where to put my—his I should say—his fingers, his tongue. Think about violinists, think about what they can do with their fingers. And I’d know exactly how to get that person into it, and get pleasure out of making that person feel pleasure to the point that I probably wouldn’t even have to enter. But when I did it would be explosive.

Yeah...is it a little hot in here, or is that just me? Let's just move on:

The Purple Shirt of Sex

Sherlock fans know that there's nothing sexier than this purple shirt straining at its buttons. This is why I told you to watch Sherlock.

Recreating This Pride and Prejudice Scene

Cumberbatch as Darcy? It's technically not from a film (instead, it's apart of a photoshoot), but still...Jane Austen stories have never been hotter. Yes, please.

When He Started With the Riding Crop

Such a touching moment in Irene and Sherlock's relationship...and by touching, I mean ridiculously sexy.
