British actor Martin Freeman and his partner Amanda Abbington have called in the police after receiving menacing messages via social media.
The Sherlock co-stars, who have been together since 2000, contacted the authorities over a series of nasty posts by an unknown blogger, which included death threats.
The posts were screengrabbed by Abbington and uploaded to her Twitter account. In the caption, she wrote, "To the coward who's since shut this blog down. We've already informed the police sweetie. They have all the info."
The police are investigating the messages, according to Britain's The Sun newspaper.
