Actor foils bank raid
London Evening Standard
11 December 2002
Actor Christopher Cazenove today told how he foiled a bank raid by striking a robber in the face with a wooden chopping board.

The 56-year-old ex-Dynasty star said the incident left him terrified and shaking, but he was glad he had given the thief "a bloody sore nose".

Cazenove, who played Ben Carrington in the Eighties US soap, bought the £14.99 kitchen board at a Sainsbury's in Clapham when he stumbled across two men outside the NatWest bank next door apparently brawling.

He soon realised they were thieves attacking a guard carrying a security box. As one of them grabbed the box and ran towards him he instinctively smashed the board into his face, knocking him to the floor.
