Re: Series 4 Setlock (potential spoilers)
So perhaps it's a relic from... Redbeard? The third brother? Something else?

Could it be from his university? Diogenes?
Clueing for looks.

Re: Series 4 Setlock (potential spoilers)
I think the latter is a definite possibility...or at least I like the idea of it!

Re: Series 4 Setlock (potential spoilers)
Diogenes Club membership ring sounds a bit cult-like, but I do think it would show his dedication to the idea of it.

Re: Series 4 Setlock (potential spoilers)
Recap from yesterday:
-----------------------------------
I cannot live without brainwork. What else is there to live for? Stand at the window there. Was there ever such a dreary, dismal, unprofitable world? See how the yellow fog swirls down the street and drifts across the dun-coloured houses. What could be more hopelessly prosaic and material? What is the use of having powers, Doctor, when one has no field upon which to exert them?

There is something strange going on with Mycroft's ties and scarves. At least he is wearing the same coat as in HLV and TAB.

Wonder if they are using that Green screen? Could be interesting

Well I'm fairly certain they'll be using it at some juncture!

Some interesting tweets by Mark and some speculations:

Ooh.
CAM seems the most obvious reference...
Did he prey upon Mary?

Oooh! Very interesting!
Wouldn't it be awesome to get more of Lars if possible?

Yes, I thought he was with us too brief a time.

Funny. I instantly thought he was referring to someone female here. I mean, the sitting down thing and the shopping ...
Comparing Mary to a shark?

Re: Series 4 Setlock (potential spoilers)
I did too but some men do sit down... but then again we know Magnussen does stand up...

(My doctor always told me all female urinary tract problems are caused because women don't stand up!)

Re: Series 4 Setlock (potential spoilers)
... It's probably the milk I had before bedtime last night...
But could Mary be related to Magnussen? Sherlock did deduce that she wasn't English (lol, that's a wide field to be honest)

It is a possibility...though I wasn't thinking Scandanavian.

Re: Series 4 Setlock (potential spoilers)
I would love to see Lars back! I didn't think Magnussen bothered to buy the letters ... I thought it was all in his head, and the letters were fake.
I don't really see Magnussen as "dressing as other sharks" either. That might fit better with Mary (who would also have driven on the right if she was from the US). And I wonder if the spelling could have something to do with AGRA?
Weeing sitting down could refer to being female, or maybe to fastidiousness? I don't know.
Of course, it could all be a private joke!
(@Besleybean, I thought the problem in women was a shorter urethra and being closer to contamination. And that squatting was the healthier alternative! But my information may be out of date. Women can wee standing up, and there are devices to assist with this!).
