If we don’t...
If we don’t ‘get ANYTHING from that’, then why all the fuss?
Most probably I don’t see the logic behind this outburst, because I am an Arse Hole. Thanks for clearing that up, Amanda!
Hey! We got her to stop posting on Sherlock stuff. In my mind that is a success.
So what did the picture show of the script? What was revealed? It must have been something interesting, or she wouldn’t be so pissed. Guess I’m “cretin” enough to want to know.
IMHO, this is legitimately her spewing and not a troll attempt. She’s displayed her nasty temper, her true negative opinion of fandom, and vile mouth, many times before.
I want to like Amanda. She’s a fellow dog person and vegetarian and she seems cute and nice in pics. And of course, she’s Martin’s wife. I do think she has acting chops. But every time she does something like this I’m reminded that no, I really don’t like her.
Can you imagine Lou or posting something like this? No, because she has a head on her shoulders and is genuinely a kind person. She wouldn’t hate on the fandom like this.
(none of that has anything to do with Mary, whom I dislike, period.)

John Barrowman filming in Cardiff Next week
So, apparently John Barrowman is going to be filming some secret project in Cardiff starting next week? Everyone is guessing that it’s Dr. Who, but I wonder if it’s Sherlock…
If that link doesn’t take you to the video, try THIS ONE.
Oh please be Victor Trevor. How hilarious would that be, gay, gay, gay and more gay. In your face hetero-normativity. We are fierce.
That would be awesome if he’s in Sherlock. LOVE John Barrowman.
doesn’t show anything current.

Steven: “But also it’s a fun thing, isn’t it, because I think this whole sequence is being rather wonderful, but the truth is, structurally it allows you to get past the fact that Mary has shot Sherlock and been revealed to be a villain and now is gonna be forgiven, in a relatively short space of time! And you sort of buy it. Curiously, I think if we did that in a linear way, you’d think that not enough time has passed.” x
MARY HAS BEEN REVEALED TO BE A VILLAIN
YOU SORT OF BUY THAT SHE’S BEING FORGIVEN
THANKS STEVEN, BYE EVERYONE
Well, nothing in HLV allowed ME to get past it. I feel like the entire episode doesn’t hang together in that way, that Mary was forgiven. But I’m not sure what he’s talking about here. The transition to Christmas?
Fuck, I hope they get past this early in S4 and just resolve her as a villain. Because, frankly, nothing they do will sit right with me until they do.

After shooting Magnussen Sherlock yells to John to stay far back from him....
After shooting Magnussen Sherlock yells to John to stay far back from him. He’s saying this because he fears he will immediately be shot and John will get caught in the crossfire. He offered his life for John at that moment. He was willing to die. He thought he was going to. Without Mycroft’s orders he would have been shot and killed, no questions asked. Sherlock didn’t face imprisonment for John, he faced death. John’s happiness is more important than Sherlock’s life. The only problem is Sherlock doesn’t know what truly makes John happy.
True
Setlock 4, first break; May 2016
Taking the time to look at setlock s4e1. Mainly what were the standouts for me during this 5 week setlock, so not a recap, just impressions.
John Watson did not look happy. We didn’t get many setlock photographs of Martin, one at Pinewood and then several during the market/Trinity Square/Bonn Sq scenes, and the ones out of character were lovely. The chemistry is back with Benedict, the shots with the real baby actor were cute and he was smiling and genial with onlookers. But John Watson looked concerned, worried, out of sorts. In the images of actual filming in London, he was firmly walking with Sherlock versus Mary and appeared to be less than enthusiastic with the events unfolding. Only one scene in reality but enough to theorise that the dissatisfaction with the marriage we saw in HLV is continuing in this new episode.
Sherlock has a lot of things unfolding which he deals with alone. So secret things, things he wants to keep away from John/Mary. We had reports Sherlock is in the scene at Portland House, maybe an embassy siege situation, no mention of John being involved but hints that Mary was there. We have Sherlock alone on Vauxhall Bridge, in front of Vauxhall Cross and at the shark tunnel in the London Aquarium, and at the Senedd in Cardiff; where is John? A report that John met with Sherlock inside MI6 during a closed set filming, suggests John may be in danger or acting secretly behind Mary’s back?
Mycroft features in the episode actually out and about at a crime scene!!! Hello, this is rather unusual. We usually see Mycroft in his house, 221b, his office or his club. Outdoors we see him waiting near Speedys and in a warehouse for meetings with John. It’s the exception rather than the rule to see Mycroft out on location. He hates ‘leg work’. Yet we know he is at the crime scene where the SOCO team are investigating. This is a major crime then, or one that is so close to home it is alarming, like Mycroft’s presence at Appledore or on the tarmac; Mycroft emerges when ‘his little brother’ is in danger.
The Sherlock, Molly and Baby Watson scene at the Watson’s flat is strange. Neither of these two people strike me as baby sitting material, and Mary would have a hoard of friends ready to look after baby if need be. Molly is not Mary’s friend in the show, there has never been a relationship building scene between the characters. Sherlock looks worried in the scene, as if a Marie Celeste moment has occurred and John and Mary have just disappeared from their flat, leaving baby unattended and the stove on, the doors unlocked; they have just disappeared. Molly is called in to look after baby and Sherlock needs to find John.
The Ferrari, and the wrecked cars, the filming on the back lot at Dragon Studios, all hint at a car chase, car crash event. I still contend that a car goes into water and submerges. There is strong action scenes in this episode, we know they used green screen at Dragon Studios, I expect someone is injured/killed.
Sherlock has his own hair, it’s not a wig. Benedict’s hair is long enough to twist and diffuse, it’s the short version of Sherlock hair, but it is his hair. In ep 2 & 3 it will be longer and better.
Silver Blaze is getting a strong nod in this episode. The Ferrari emblem and the burned car are all suggesting puns on the story title.
We don’t appear to have a guest villain. We didn’t have reports of any actor/actress on set or seen around Cardiff receiving a starring guest VIP treatment, such as Lara and Lars received. Which means the focus is on the story arc already in place. Yes there may be a side story taking place, maybe the Ambassador/embassy incident, but the MI6 stuff, the danger is closer to home. Think it maybe Mary’s enemies unleashed.
On the johnlock front, I have absolutely not one iota of concern. The addition of a baby is just a continuation of the pregnancy speculation. Nothing has changed apart from the fact we can eliminate a fake pregnancy as a possibility. Sherlock and John, in scenes together, look as joined at the hip as they ever where. Mary is still smug and trying to dominate. There is no new evidence of anything having changed since HLV.As always these are just random thoughts, based on impressions I have had over the setlock period. As ep 2 unfolds we will be able to look back at ep 1 and see things that take us in different directions. Things to watch for as of next week:
John Watson ringwatch
Baby watch
Mary/Amanda presence
Benedict and Martin as the only actors on a location shoot [that beach recce is crying out Devil’s Foot]
Reoccuring guest actors such as Ollie Lansley, Yasmine, Lindsay Duncan, Tim and WandaAnd please….let us have a read through pic of Ben and Martin enjoying each others company.
Nice recap. Spot on though I think the villain is Mary rather than Mary’s enemies.
