It must be fun being an actor getting to do little stunts like that!

The above still is from the extras.
Benedict is totally gorgeous in it!

Oh yes he was! Gosh he was lovely. Well, he is, isn't he?

Who is that guy next to Sherlock, I wonder. Victor Trevor? He takes him by the hand....

That's Mycroft. Or at least we're supposed to think so. You never know what you're supposed to think when it comes to Sherlock the show-- what seems to be true turns out not to be, and vice versa, so often.

No, I don´t think so.
Mycroft would never sit next to Sherlock patiently, allowing him to dose himself.
In my opinion, it must be a fellow drug-user. And they both have student uniforms... and as we know from Canon, Victor was the only Sherlock´s friend at Uni.
So....?

In this Sherlock's canon, Sebastian Moran was Sherlock's friend in college. Ugh.
Whoever this is, it looks like he's sitting with him while he recovers, not helping him dose. At least, I think so.

If it´s Mycroft, why didn´t he remove Sherlock from a drug-den and transferred him to a more secure place?

A scene from the distant past, I thought. Mycroft might have been less-than-proud of his little brother's drug escapades, so he was trying to handle the situation privately. Or maybe that was a "secure place" already, who knows.

Or maybe it wasn't Mycroft, but as BB said, the scene came right on the heels of Mycroft's lines about this very thing.

Oh, god,the blue dressing gown with the white braid piping. *gorgeous* He had a dark purple one, too. For a while I thought my TV was playing color tricks on me and that they were the same gown-- you know how sometimes blue appears purple on TV and vice versa-- but I finally decided the dark purple dressing gown was a different one from the blue, since it had no piping on it. Both are beautiful pieces of clothing, and of course, Ben wears them like the model he could have been in a different life.

I dunno, maybe they'll bring short hair into the story.

Bite your tongue, BB lol That's like saying they're gonna buy him a new coat. Unthinkable.

I like stating the unthinkable!

Amazing images.

After an acid trip:

Stoned but beautiful nevertheless.

besleybean · January 4, 2016 7:16 pm

Yes, almost criminal that a 7% per cent solution of cocaine could make somebody so gorgeous...though to be fair, he was gorgeous before.

This Is The Phantom Lady · January 4, 2016 8:03 pm

Just my thought. He's even beautiful in that state. How... How is that possible?

He sure dresses up for someone doing what he's doing.

It's not, not in real life. This is.... hate to say it out loud, but.... pretend.

besleybean · January 4, 2016 8:19 pm

I know...should we be worried about an addict(Sorry Sherlock, "user")being presented so glamorously?

This Is The Phantom Lady · January 4, 2016 8:22 pm

I could have the same concerns. He should not look that pretty considering what state he got himself in. I know this one is in the mind palace and how he sees himself... but yeah.
