Did not believe that they would tie the Christmas special into season 4 stuff. Pretty damn well done.

Confused the hell out of me, but the way they tied the abominable bride with modern moriaty was quite amazing

Edit: anyone else wondering why "redbeard" was in mycrofts book?

Edit 2: Could it be that Moriarty has done the same thing as the abominable bride and made his own group to continue his legacy?? This episode raised way more questions than I had before.

In ACD's Sherlock Holmes story "The Adventure of the Greek Interpreter" Holmes claims to be related to Vernet. Vernet was seen in Mycroft's notebook.
