To everyone worrying about what Mark said:

It’s not canon. It’s not in the show, and he expressly said they decided not to do it. Everyone just breathe.

TAB is gonna be here in just eleven more days, so if we’re gonna panic about anything, panic about that. Lol. 

But actually, don’t panic about that either. It’s going to be amazing. I know it. You know it. There’s no reason to panic about anything. Everything is going to be just peachy.

And also remember that Steven Moffat cried while writing the best man’s speech. 

Can someone post a link to whatever Mark said? Thanks!

He did a podcast with PBS where he mentioned they were thinking of John finding Sherlock’s Best Man Speech and have little notes of like cry here and stuff but didn’t end up doing it. He said that either way Sherlock kind of approached it as a case and was successful at his task which is true for the speech on screen. If people are worried about that they need to calm down. It didn’t even happen! hahahaha

This actually makes sense from the romantic arc perspective. If one of the ‘big misunderstandings’ in S3 is John thinking, after the wedding, that Sherlock really doesn’t have feelings (and therefore, he might as well stay with mary), this would have accomplished that. But in the end, the scene where Sherlock proposes to Janine and the elevator conversation already creates this plot point, so it wasn’t necessary. Not only redundant, it would have lessened the POSITIVE beat of Sherlock’s speech, so that’s probably why they didn’t do it. So, positive beat, Sherlock’s speech (look he really does care for me), then negative beat, John witnesses Sherlock’s completely faked emotions with Janine (no, Sherlock doesn’t have feelings for anyone).
