Re: Game: Alternative titles for the episodes, series 1 to 3
Going by the storyline, there are many references: Treating a member of the royal family badly, not being dead against all odds, resurrection at the end, damsel in distress, poison. That's why I decided for
Fairy-tales
ASiP: The Pink (Brothers Grimm)
TBB: Hans in Luck
TGG: Godfather Death
ASiB: Snow White
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
John: "Have you spoken to Mycroft, Molly, uh, anyone?"
Mrs Hudson: "They don’t matter. You do."
I BELIEVE IN SERIES 5!

For me, TRF isn't about Hansel and Gretel but about a prince, leaping off a high tower after being mocked at and surviving in the end.

Re: Game: Alternative titles for the episodes, series 1 to 3
No takers for new round ideas? Then I'll start a new round off. This weekend is Memorial Day in the US, which is the traditional start of summer in many people's minds. This got me thinking of summer and the other seasons, and all the movies that have the name of a season in the title.
My suggested theme is this: Titles borrowed from films that have a season (Winter, Fall/Autumn, Spring, Summer) in their name. A few quick google searches have assured me that the pool of possibilities is deep (there are over 1000 for Summer alone).
