Lorne: Once the word spreads you beat up an innocent old man, well, the truly terrible will think twice before going toe-to-toe with our Avenging Angel. Spike: Yes. The geriatric community will be soiling their nappies when they hear you're on the case. Bravo.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

My BBCA is showing that Star Trek V is going to be on instead of Sherlock. I am confused.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Sherlock is on PBS.

And in my area Sherlock is listed as "Masterpiece Mystery:New" but the 9:58 start time is kinda a clue as to what is showing.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

So, the basic theme was Sherlock Is Making Slightly More Of An Effort With His Goldfish?

t edit And, of course, massive fanservice, which made me laugh FOREVER.

Also, my favorite parts of all the episodes tend to be the scenes between Sherlock and Mycroft, and this was no exception. I 100% loved the goldfish conversation.

Missed the last scene. During the fadeout there was about to be a pan to a significant face. Is it only significant in that it will show up again, or significant that if I had not missed it I would have recognized it? Also: does the next episode have a plot?

Um... I can answer all of those questions, more or less.

Here: You could not have recognised the face, but it is significant. And the next episode does have more of something resembling a plot.

Actually, after the episode aired, a lot of people thought the eyes and glasses looked as if they belonged to Alex Ferguson, ex-manager of Manchester United, which led to some interesting speculation.

I have read the comments, and holy crap! Benedict Cumberbatch's mother was the Fendahl!

And Virginia Lake from UFO!

Also, Susan's mother on Coupling.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Also, Susan's mother on Coupling.

The Fendahl has spawned many children.
