"Thank you for being a friend, Benedict Cumberbatch," Tom Hiddleston is saying, probably.

Cumberbatch quizzed his fellow British actor and longtime friend for "The Night Manager," and filming his movie "Kong: Skull Island."

One thing they did NOT talk about: Taylor Swift.

"There's another weight of us being in the public eye, which is this presumption that, because your work and your promotion work is very public, your private life should be, too," Cumberbatch said at one point.

"And, without getting into a huge debate, I just want to say that I'm not going to ask questions about my friend's personal life just because there are unsolicited photographs of him and a certain someone, in a relationship or together. I'm not going to get into that. So that door is closed, dear reader."

Hiddleston chuckled in response. No doubt he also send Cumberbatch a bottle of scotch as a thank you (and for his upcoming birthday). #FriendshipGoals
