Well, there's lots of Doctor Who -- do you watch both the classic and the current episodes?
And 11 viewings of Sherlock is perfectly normal! Do you mean 11 times through all of the episodes, in the past couple of years?
Yes I watch both, but I mainly watch the current episodes.
I mean 11 times through all the episodes in the past couple of... months haha 😬

Reading this, it looks like everyone watches loads of things!
I’m the complete opposite haha, I watch mainly just Sherlock (I’m on my 11th run through whoops) and doctor who!
I recently finished watching Good Omens which I thoroughly enjoyed.

I think my favorite is probably the tete a tete with Sherlock on the roof in TRF. I love the cool way Sherlock faces down Jim's craziness.
Oh yes that scene is fantastic! I really like Sherlock's line "I may be on the side of the angels, but don't think for a second I am one of them" to me its really powerful.

I like that scene too, but to me he just seems completely confident that he's going to be found not guilty, and pretty smug about it too. I guess that should have told us that he had an ace up his sleeve!
Yeah! He just seems too chill in there, It really shows how he has everything already planned out and in motion I suppose

I like the tea scene with Sherlock.
Oh yes! That is a great scene! I love how the apple he left behind is now so iconic 😄

Hello everyone!
Sorry I've not been on the forum much, I've been over-run with revision and exams... 😢
But, I'm back again with another topic, this time with Moriarty!
Personally, my favourite is in The Reichenbach Fall, in the court. Moriarty seems so sinister and to me it really sums his character up well.
I'm curious to know what your answers will be!

Well, I'll tell you what convinced me (not that it's necessarily relevant to you). As I mentioned before, I had grown up with toilet paper hanging down behind. Even though I thought my parents' reason for doing so was irrelevant, like you I was used to it. So my roommates and I tended to hang it that way later on.
At one point we lived in an old not-very-well-maintained apartment, with small patches of paint peeling from the walls here and there. One day when I groped behind the roll for the loose end of the toilet paper, my fingers happened to scrape against a patch of loose paint, driving some chips of paint under my nails. I tell ya, that smarted! So I've been a confirmed "over the topper" ever since, even when living in well-maintained residences.
Oh right! that is a very valid reason!

my rant is short...

So are you an "I've never really thought about it" or an "it doesn't matter to me"?
In my house, we always do over the top, but I've never really thought about it, It's just habit to replace the roll that way round because I've been doing it all my life! 😂 I'm still undecided about which way is the best...
-
You know, ever since I read this thread a few days ago, I can't help but notice which way toilet paper is facing, (and if that is the most efficient orientation) where ever I go! It's definitely an odd topic, but it sure does stick in the mind! 🤣

Indeed! I believe His Last Vow's thread has hundreds of pages. Each episode has separate thread and you'll be welcomed to mess with them.
What do you like the most from season 3; Sherlock coming back, John gets married, season 3 ending or others? Not favorite exactly, but it cracked me up that Sherlock, like us all human, learn stuff from YouTube as well. And him feeling sad and thinking that John's wedding is a battle is so human.
My favorite is season 2! Although I'm not crazy about Hounds, but Scandal and Reichenbach are my favorite, but I admit Reichenbach scarred me quite a lot so I'm too chicken to put it in my profile. 🐥
Oh wow I didn't know that, thank you! I will definitely have a look at those threads!
I'm not sure what I like the most, I like it all! But if I had to choose I would say Sherlock's mind palace scene, because it shows the pure power of his thoughts, and the fact it all took place in the space of three seconds is remarkable.
I love series 2, I think its a close second favourite! I really liked Hounds and TRF. I have to agree, whenever I re-watch TRF I can't help but cry, even though I know what's going to happen

Oh, only series 3! Thanks, Carol, I must have missed that part.
Hmmmm... In that case, I am going to go with the scene where John asks Sherlock to be his best man.
Ah yes! That is a good scene. Van Buren Supernova chose that one too, it seems to be quite a popular one! 😊

Welcome! Nice picture.
I think we already have a general favorite scenes thread but not one for Sherlock and John scenes specifically. Well, now we do thanks to you.
Thank you!
Oh that's good! I'm glad I've not just recreated an existing thread

Even if you do, you'll find majority of us already inside. So there is nothing to be ashamed of.
May I know why you asked for season 3 specifically? Your favorite season?
Because if you asked for season 2, I'd choose the sheet scene in Buckingham Palace, most likely, although I love all TRF as it tugs my heartstring the most. But you see, I have worked very hard (not) to achieve my current status as Pantless in Buckingham Palace and would like to feel represented.
Oh that makes it sound bit better thank you 🤣
Good question! Yes, I think I did choose it because it's my favourite season, and I also feel it has a lot of points for discussion!
The sheet scene is by far one of my most favourite scenes! I think I would choose the scene on Bart's Hospital, where Sherlock is on the phone to John, it always makes me cry, no matter how many times I watch it!
Also, may I ask - What's your favourite season? 😊

Thank you! Yes the moderators I've spoken to have been very nice, but I'm hoping I don't end up in the padded cell haha 😂
Ah yes, I was going to put that as my favourite, it is really iconic, it's probably my second favourite, especially when he takes a sip of his tea and the eyeball pops up!
Oh and that dialogue is fantastic also! If you've got that, I'd call dibs on when Sherlock and John are drunk in 221B after their ordeal in the pubs 🤣

I think it is...
partly because of the time pressure.
There were only four of us, so I can certainly see the advantage of having a full team of six.
Having said that, the lovely German couple my pal and I were with, were both brilliant.
You need a bit of creative thinking...
You also forget that the staff are listening to you the whole time!
They said to us afterwards, that we were an infuriating group...
We very quickly worked out the solutions and then immediately talked ourselves out of it. Ha!
ah okay 😂, thank you! x

I got Christopher Tietjens, and considering I recently finished watching Parade's End, I'm quite happy with the result! x

Hi all,
I'm not sure if this is already a topic, but I'm really curious as to what everyone's favourite scene involving Sherlock and John is in series 3.
Personally, mine is in The Empty Hearse, when Sherlock appears in the restaurant and surprises John, I think that whole scene is just hilarious!
looking forward to hear your opinions!

Happy 43rd birthday to Benedict Cumberbatch! ❤️
He seriously deserves the world, and he has carried so many people, including myself, through the good times and helped us through the bad. He inspires me to be the best, most hardworking person I can be, to be positive, and to never give up. I believe that he is, and will be forever, a role model to me because he is the most charming, humble, talented, funny and kind person ever and his pure goodness has sparked a love for him and his acting roles all around the world from so many people, and his acting is truly phenomenal, all his roles are absolutely stunning, and they all deserve all the awards possible due to his dedication and passion for his work. I really hope he having the best day with whoever he’s spending it with.
