It’s still on in the UK, yes? Peeking between my fingers trying to decide how much I want to be spoiled before it airs here in a few hours. Just want to know: 1) is it good? and 2) how gay is it?

Sherlock Holmes and Victorian Homosexuality
[This is the final post in my series on Strangers: Homosexual Love in the Nineteenth Century by Graham Robb. Previous posts can be found here.]
Dearest friends. Dear sweet ones. Dear softest lambs. Prepare yourselves.
Robb’s last chapter is on literature and literary references to homosexuality.
And he chooses to talk – at length – about Sherlock Holmes and John Watson.
He writes:
The following observations are not a sly attempt to ensnare the great detective in the elastic web of gay revisionism. Everyone already knows, instinctively, that Holmes is homosexual.Well then.
If there is one post you read from this series, it should be this one.
Very good read. I love this last bit: “
Lucky for us, it’s no longer the 19th century. Here is the chance for Holmes and Watson to love each other openly. After over 100 years of being trapped between the lines, researchers and adapters are finally setting them free.”

EW can exclusively reveal the role Hannibal star Mads Mikkelsen is portraying in Marvel’s new superhero movie, Doctor Strange (out Nov. 4), which stars Benedict Cumberbatch as the titular surgeon-turned-sorcerer.
And the part is that of (cue: drum roll) chief baddie!
“Mads is playing our main villain,” says executive producer Stephen Broussard.
OMG. Cumberbatch and Mikkelsen. It’s Christmas!
