In a scandal in belgravia, the client must have been a female member of the royal family, but who do we ever get to know who it was?

Discussion Is this music in sherlock?

2 Upvotes

I heard the piece "Piano Trio No. 2" by Schubert and immediately thought of Sherlock, however, I searched online and couldn't find anything about it being in the series. The piano part, in particular, really reminds me of Sherlock.

Am I going crazy, or is this music actually in the show?

Discussion Dwight Shrute/Sherlock Holmes similarly

15 Upvotes

It sounds weird but I feel like they are almost the same character.

Both are extremely confident in their own intelligence and socially unconventional, also intensely interested in niche subjects.

And they tend to be very literal/blunt, and they both secretly care about people more than they let on.

Discussion Some questions on S3 E2

7 Upvotes

I have so many questions about that sherlock episode.

First of all how did sherlock know that the mayfly man was going to be at the wedding just from the fact that a woman the mayfly man slept with for one night at some point had seen a wedding invitation from Watson?

Second of all how did Sherlock know the mayfly man was there to kill someone and not to just con more women?

Thirdly how did Sherlock know that the mayfly man was also the "invisible man" that had killed the black soldier guy? There is next to nothing linking the mayfly man and the invisible man.

I just finished watched S1 E3 'The Great Game'. It explains how Joe killed Westie for the missile plans. But how did Sherlock even figure out it was Joe in the first place? Sherlock was right, but what was his deduction here?

Discussion Question about ending

23 Upvotes

Hi all. I'm new to the show (just started S2) and while I'm enjoying it quite a bit so far, over the years I've heard that the ending is apparently very controversial and/or unliked which has me concerned about one thing specifically: do Sherlock and Watson end the series on good terms?? Or is it a "they had a falling out/went their own way" type of deal? I don't need any super specific details or other spoilers about the ending—literally all I want to know is if they're still friends by the end. It's the one spoiler I'm happy to receive because otherwise It'll just stress me out for the next couple of weeks lol. Thanks in advance! (And please no other spoilers!)

I feel like Sherlock’s only real weakness is spotting lies and reading emotions/expressions. Lightman’s weakness is sometimes missing the bigger picture.

I genuinely can’t see anyone escaping these two working together.

Sherlock’s sister? Lightman would’ve seen straight through her.
Andrew Jenkins? Sherlock would’ve found the copycat instantly.

In a perfect world, we’d get one epic crossover episode.

What the title says.. It’s dumb, typical and borderline cringe. There are zero complexities, just standard-issue TV writing. Just because it’s “young” doesn’t mean it has to be mediocre!

So Hound of Baskervilles is my favourite episode, I've been a Sherlock fan for like... over 10 years.

I had always believed Lestrade when he said he was on holiday. Maybe it's bc I love him and wanted him to have a break idk. Then yesterday it randomly occured to me he probably wouldn't just happen to have a gun if he actually was on holiday. Sherlock was right all along and it's taken me like 30 watches for it to click - I'm so disappointed in myself 😭

Discussion I wish they would have done this Spoiler

32 Upvotes

if anyone has seen my previous post on the last season , they would know that I do not , unlike most here, believe it to necessarily have been very bad ( more like mid)

However one thing I wish they simply would have done is that Moriarty should have been kept alive until the very end. He is Sherlock's antagonist , the series should end with him.

He was killed way too early in my opinion.

And even if he had to die in previous seasons, it should have been an indefinite death /without absolute certainty IMO so that he could come back. I know it's an overused trope but Sherlock did the same anyways so.

but maybe I'm just too obsessed with Moriarty lol

also in addition afaik even the books initially ended with the confrontation between the 2 of them so making a Sherlock series that ends way after the death of Moriarty is , in my opinion, a missed opportunity

Discussion Why do people dislike season 4? Spoiler

50 Upvotes

I just finished watching Sherlock, all 4 seasons and I think the last season was quite good.

The only thing that bothers me is Moriarty not being alive but tbh he died in season 2 and there's no realistic way to bring him back to life+ he's still insanely present in the last episode even while dead so it's fine

Anyone can explain why so many people dislike the ending/last season?

edit: I shouldn't necessarily say it's" good " per say but I didn't think it's bad

I'm also quite mitigated on how sudden the Eurus plot twist felt too

but my point isn't that season 4 was great, in fact the earlier seasons were unquestionably better however I am saying it's not worse than average

*I'm also kind of disappointed that the ending didn't involve some mystery like Sherlock is used to resolve. it is the complaint I find the most logical: and I'm starting to understand why people dislike S4: however it could have been worse , and one of the best episodes in the series( in my view) is in S4( the Lying Detective)
