    They weren't previews - they were pieces attacking last week's episode.

    Nearly all the press reviews of last week's episode were very positive.

    Well except for the Mail and its "Holmes and Watson" gay allegations SHOCKER !!!!

    Just in case you missed it the Mail decided to turn the little joke about Holmes and Watson misunderstanding each others sexuality in the pilot into a nuclear attack by the writers on middle England.

    And people used to have a go at Sun readers...they can't be any more moronic than Mail readers.

    Have loved both episodes, had to put the boys the bed during tonight's...never done it so fast in my life!!

    I also think that Lou Brealey is an under-used actress, unless she's been in stuff that I haven't been watching.

    Roll on next Sunday!!

    "I've clocked very negative pieces in both the Sunday Telegraph and the Sunday Times today, both of them doubtless influenced by the proprietors' politics"

    The Telegraph TV guide said it was the best drama of the year, and an absolute must watch.

    Was that influenced by the proprietors' politics too?

    No offense, but I'm glad it's Holmes solving these mysteries and not you.

    Quality wise, this weeks episode has fallen off a cliff.

    last week was a fantastic series opener. So much energy and invention, wit and charm. But this is week was totally different. Where was last weeks Holmes?? This one seems humble, introvert and clumbsy. Did I see right or did a woman look over his sholder and deduce something in seconds, that he`d been starting at for days??
    Where was the brilliant banter with Lustrade and his team?

    I was almost, almost, expecting a "gun in the dog" scenario at the end.

    According to IMDb Rupert Graves should have been in tonight's episode. I'm wondering (by Benedict's raspy voice, paleness and breathlessness) if he had pneumonia in this episode? Martin Freeman sounded full of cold, too, in parts. Maybe the three of them had the lurgy and Rupert called in sick? :confused:


    Also just doing a bit of detective work: can anyone see why the BBC have created these two 'Sherlock-related websites':

    Who do you suppose are Molly Hooper and Connie Prince?

    Sometimes a TV programme leaves me lost for words. I wanted to post so many positive adjectives in this post so that any reader would know at an instant how much I love this programme. But I will just say 'brilliant'....it has been so long since any TV programme has had me wetting my pants waiting for the next episode.

    Molly Hooper is the lady that works in the mortuary.

    Nearly all, but obviously not the ones the poster mentioned.

    I actually thought this week's was better than last week's. A bit more tension to this one, for me. I was sorry they killed off the young Chinese girl though; I liked her :(

    I thoroughly enjoyed tonight's episode, direction could have been punchier in bits, but thought script was good, and acting chops as excellent as last week.

    Not as good as last week's episode, but still one of the best things on telly this year.

    The guy who played Detective Dimmock also played Jamie in As If :o

    That's where I always recognize him from when he rarely pops up in things.

    Yes, just read her blog. No one has called her by her name yet, have they?
    Wonder if she is 'M'?


    And Connie Prince is in next week's episode.


    Was nice to see Benedict's girlfriend in tonight's episode. :)

    Is the actress the same one in the Bing advert ('You talkin' to me?)

    I had the same thought (which gives me two things to be honest about if and when the time comes...)

    Yes. I honestly thought she'd never work again after that one.

    Nice of Mr Gatiss & Moffat to rescue her.
