With the rumours that E02 will have scenes in a children hospital, I cannot help but think about one thing: Munchausen Syndrome by Proxy.
Munchausen syndrome by proxy (MSbP or MbP) is a behaviour pattern in which a caregiver or spouse fabricates, exaggerates, or induces mental or physical health problems in those who are in their care, usually to gain attention or sympathy from others.
What do we think people? Is that something Mary could do? Is it too dramatic, even for Moftiss?
Thing is, recent reports are of BC being in a dressing gown whilst filming at the SU ‘hospital’ set-up. So is he the patient instead of a child? Or maybe he’s also there as a patient? It’s confusing. “The Dying Detective” has been suggested, in which Sherlock fakes his illness for a case. Maybe it has nothing to do with a child then. Or maybe there is an ill child so Sherlock fakes ill to get into the hospital? No idea. But so far no confirmation that it even IS baby Watson who is sick.

Martin’s hair still looks swoopy.
And Amanda is there – but the date says yesterday? So possibly she was there filming yesterday but not today.
She very definitely is not there today, she’s been tweeting about being home. I think she may have just been pretending to film. (Is the same location and all yesterday and today; yes it’s possible she only was needed for one day but tricking seems more likely to me and she looks like she’s visiting)
Hmmm. I’m not sure she’d be there just for trickery. But in any case, someone pointed out that John is still wearing his wedding ring.
Like most people, I’m so ready for the plot to fucking move on already. I don’t care if Mary is still around if she’s a villain and/or she and John are estranged, but I’m really over the married-John plotline. For fuck’s sake. It’s taken up enough of the few precious episodes we have already. This first look at E2 isn’t promising. :-(
But…. Yes, I know we don’t have enough info yet, and I shouldn’t hypothesize before the facts. So whining turned off for now.

Random tidbits being reported from today’s filming...

Useful if this is how...
Useful if this is how you think, though often I don’t see the outline until after the draft is written, because after awhile one just internalize this kind of stuff from all the media one ingests. Point is, use if helpful, ignore if not.
This is EXACTLY how many shows on television plot their episodes, though it’s usually through a five act timeline:
1) Introduction to the characters and the mission/adventure.
2) Mission begins. Protagonist establishes cursory allies and foes. Some sort of complication to the plot at the end of Act II.
3) Protagonist and friends deal with complication of the plot. Gears up for another go at the goal, but falls short in some way, usually related to protagonist’s personal journey.
4) Critical information needed for climax is discovered. Protagonist angsts, then rallies.
5) The lead up to and the final resolution.
Because studios sometimes require a 6 act break for extra advertising, the last coda is usually related to season arc/character development. But generally speaking, this is the structure a lot of screenwriters use.
Three things that are true:
Anything you don’t create deliberately you create inadvertently. Things you create inadvertently tend to be the first idea your brain reaches for. Your first idea is almost never your best idea, because it will inevitably be influenced by the last thing you read or saw, or will clichéd and obvious. That’s how your brain gets warmed up to a problem; it reviews common solutions first.One of my biggest revelations was that writing is both the act of constructing beautiful sentences AS WELL AS the act of being imaginative, of thinking up characters and story and knitting them together in a clever way. We are so blinded by the romance of the act of sentence construction that we forget that the imaginative part should get our time and attention too. You can call it “planning” or “outlining” or whatever. I call it dreaming.
Make time for your imagination to produce the best story it can.
