Hi everyone :D
​I'm not sure if I got that correctly, I'm not very into the marvel universe...but am I right that this was the first encounter between Stark and Dr Strange? In all their scenes together I was waiting for a Sherlock / Sherlock Holmes reference any second but...I could not find any clear ones, beside the one SusiGo already mentioned
The only thing I'm not sure about is one line, that (in German) was something like "we're on the final level now" shortly after Dr Strange gave the stone away... did anyone see the movie in OV and might the line actually have been "the game is afoot"? I thought the lip movement would have fitted. But maybe that's just me😂

(PS, haven't been online in a while, it's nice to know you're still there and sherlocked as ever ;) ! )

no way!   

But yes, I also wondered about the  'goodnight vienna' thingy. Thanks for clarifying that a bit!! )

And Mycroft mentioning the Eleventh Hour! (referring to the Doctor Who episode.....maybe.....)

I don't think there will be some kind of end. Mofftiss are always very keen on paying tribute to the original stories and I think they won't turn the storyline of Sherlock into something that provides an end in terms of *there is no possibility to go on*.
IMO it's more likely that they just widen the gaps between the series as sj4iy already said.
And I think the cliffhangers help to keep people interested in the show.  Viewers think about possible solutions and when they are advertising the new series (maybe even more than two years later) they will remember the cliffhanger and watch the episode to see how they solved it. So I doubt that there will be much less viewers.

I actually wonder what his favourite music is....and if he will come to the Isle of Wight Festival so I can buy him a beer (and have a cheeky cuddle!)

 
There was a AMA on reddit some time ago where he was asked (....got asked?) for his favourite songs.
His answer:

At the moment:
MS by Alt-J
Strong by London Grammar
Pretty much all of Sigur Ros' Valtari album
One day like this - Elbow
Fever to the Form - Nick Malvey
Two Fingers - Jake Bugg
I'm rubbish at counting, and favorites.

Maybe because in the books, Watson says he's over 6 feet, and BC is "only" 6 foot.
 

 
Ah, didn't know that.  Yes that's possible.

I read it in the newspapers, it must be true!
Wasn't that something Moriarty said? 
I'm not really well informed about that, but aren't all news about a christmas SHERLOCK ep based on ONE article?
I fear we can't really expect SHERLOCK to return at christmas...
Anyway, thanks for posting it, Boss. ;)

 

Hello Sirius, Welcome!

I understand your wish, but I fear that without breaks between shooting SHERLOCK actors and Mofftiss might get a bit tired of it...
With two years between shooting they're able to think more carefully about the eps and make everything perfect.

Anyway, welcome and have fun!

That's a bit scary 

Not sure if it can be interpreted that way, but since TEH 'Bonfire Heart' has a completely new meaning to me.
