Sherlock - BBC [2]

 

Beautiful

i know..

some of my favourite sherlock parodies  
 

The Hound of the Baskervilles- Jeremy Brett version.

That's an episode I've been saving for a blizzard - I'll wait a little while longer

As fine a version of Hounds as you will ever find Rindrotten- but oddly it has ever been one of my favourite Holmes stories, book or otherwise.
Its oddly lacking in Holmes for a Sherlock Holmes story!

Yes, it is strange that The Hound should become the best known Holmes story. It is a very good book, though, but as you say, lacking in the man himself! Still, one of my favourites is The Valley of Fear; McMurdo's story is one of my all-time favourite stories, not only from the Holmes books, but from all books I've read.

I suspect its the setting of Hounds- although we tend to think of Holmes as being always in a smog filled London of hansom cabs and horses, when they were written that wasnt nostalgia it was just normal, contemporary everyday life- so I think having a story set entirely out of that setting and on the moors was kind of 'exotic' at the time, if you see what I mean.
And although there are in fact quite a few Holmes stories set outside of London none of the others make use of the different setting as much as Hounds does.

Fake scenes have been filmed to confuse fans

 Moffat you bastard!

I blame the press- if they werent so determined to try to spoil it for everyone Moffat and co wouldnt have to waste time and money doing this sort of thing just to put them off the scent.  

yes, but i am glad they did

For Norc-

ooer  

I dont hear you complaining kissing him would be like kissing an ashtray!  

 

Id kiss a guy if he smelt like an ash tray... as long as he shared the roll ups !

I dont want to snog Cumberbum whether he smokes or not  

i don't care.. give him a chewing gum or whatever..

As long as the chewing gum doesnt end up down the back of your throat, you'll be alright !
