The "state of her knees" line
...has been said to be Sherlock exposing Anderson and Donovan's having an affair. Was Sherlock saying that Sally had been kneeling in order to...gain access to... a part of Anderson's anatomy? A la Monica Lewinsky, more or less?

Re: The "state of her knees" line
Poor Sherlock. Now he has the mind image of Donovan and Anderson together.
And I have that image... 
May I have some brain bleach, please?

The woman 'being on her knees' only has one connotation ;)

That may be. But in real life there are more possibilties to have a funny state of the knees. (You don't want to know why I know that.) And Sherlock was never that direct.

Do we need to put an Adult Content warning on this thread?
And on another note I have now reached 2000 posts!

Cheers, tonnaree. 
The warning depends on how we go on with this thread. So far it has not been overly explicit and I trust you ladies to keep it that way.

Thanks for the port Harriet, but I better just have one. Can't trust myself in such a thread while under the influence.
