I work with teachers... I am constantly correcting their grammar and spelling. -
Sigh... As a 57 year old Brit , I grew up with the Rathbone films and the Jeremy Brett series... Been there and done that darling, loved them all.

I don't really do numbers, just watch what I like... I gather they lost a few million on TFP...but they had a few million to spare!

If I want Canon, I read Canon.... Mark and Steven can do what thy like with their show. I never fell for Johnlock. A beautiful, loving male friendship works for me.

Yeah, but Sherlock wanted to hear it from Mycroft's own mouth...we were still at the sibling rivalry stage, here. Oh yes it was a bit far fetched and OTT. Deliberate, it's TV and it's entertaining...I prefer that to gratuitous violence. I think Eurus was mentally ill, Sherlock was just a feature of that. Oh well, I still love the show.

That's a tad unkind. I don't know the full story of how we got what we did. But we do know they had to leave the story in a sensible place: in case it was over forever, of if they do decide to go back to it. I thought it was the most exciting TV I have ever seen, I loved the ride. Yet the personal touches were my favourite: Sherlock virtually declaring John as more of a brother to him than Mycroft, then almost immediately regretting it...when he learns what Mycroft has had to carry alone, all those years. I love Sherlock reaching out to Eurus, healing her through music and restoring her to the family. Even the Redbeard twist...lovely. Most of all I love being left with the boys going back out on their adventures...what's not to like?

As soon as any group is all labelled the same, the antenna should start twitiching...unless the cited belief is direct form their holy book, of course... -

Well we know we need a Sherlock S 5. If it will ever happen, who knows? But at least I am one of the lucky ones who was totally satisfied with S 4.
