New Sherlock Holmes film has him handcuffed to a bed

Do you remember Sherlock Holmes?
Well, you probably won't recognise him from the new version.
Have a read of this from America's Associated Press new agency: "Robert Downey Jr gave US cinema bosses a sneak preview of his new take on Sherlock Holmes, which turns the cerebral detective into a wisecracking action hero who is handcuffed naked to a bed.
"Cinema owners attending their annual ShoWest convention in Las Vegas got to see Downey's Holmes in a bruising boxing match, diving from a tall building into the Thames and trading barbs with roommate Dr Watson, played by Jude Law, who complains about the detective's slovenliness and nocturnal violin playing.
"Holmes, does your depravity know no bounds?" Watson asks the detective.
"In one scene from the film, Sherlock Holmes, directed by Guy Ritchie, a naked Holmes finds himself cuffed by both hands to a bed.
"Downey also turns the detective into something of a ladies' man as his Holmes gets a romantic interest (Rachel McAdams).
"Conan Doyle's Holmes lived a monk's life, save for one purely platonic dalliance with a female foil whose intellect he greatly admired."

You can't imagine Basil rathbone knocking out Watson before indulging in some sub-duvet action with Moriarty's missus can you?
