BBC Sherlock Fan Forum - Serving Sherlockians since February 2012 » New Member Titles Have Arrived!

Dear Mattlocked, valued Ms Stayin'-Alive,
how am I supposed to tell you... how could I explain to you my feelings every time I look at your signature pic - (not the left, the right one!)
Andrew Scott is such a cutie - why on earth did you choose this of all photos? The greasy, stringy hair, these poor attempts of moustache/beard/sideburns, this tasteless shirt with this ridiculous jabot, this featherbrained facial expression - did I forget anything?
I'm sure you do this - make me jump and roll up like a hedgehog - on purpose in order to play your newly aquired Moriarty title part as convincingly as possible.
Very well done!*applauds*
But could you also take some account now of the faint-hearted members like me? I'm not an as highly-durable girl as I used to be in my days. So, may I politely request to review your choice of pics? Thank you...

Calm down, calm down. All I wanted to do is to provoke.
I was searching for ............hm....... let's say.......... the opposite of Moriarty. Or.... the other side of Andrew Scott. I also wanted to add a text: "Moriarty??"
Actually that was before I gained my new title. I didn't even have a clue.
Since then I'm searching for a proper, better picture of Moriarty, (that's when I found Daniel Davis), so just look away for a while and I will inform you when you can look again.

But still - despite of the greasy hair and everything else - I still like the facial expression. But probably he could have any expression, I would still like it.

BTW: Why didn't you just tell me: Take away that ugly pic on the right or I'll skin you.
Life could be so easy......

Oh thank you - I'm relieved! Just take your time.

(My first aid proposal would be: Blur the left and sharpen the right pic...)

Edit: Oh silly me, I can't tell left from right. The other way round, of course!!

You mean like this?

Sherlock Holmes · April 26, 2013 6:18 pm

We could have a game like that...where you have to guess who it is from a blurred picture.

Good idea!

Sounds fun. BTW - I love the new member titles. Shame I never was "On the side of the angels".

And congrats to Tobe, our new Moriarty.

I'm thinking about asking around and seeing if anyone's interested in a local Sherlock meet around London, Essex... or somewhere! :D

YES. Always.

Watched A Single Man and fell asleep afterwards during a chat show. Meanwhile Tobe has joined me?
Oh yes! I see. You're me! *smiles and nods thoughtfully*
Welcome on board, mate! Now don't start posting nasty pictures, ok?

Another very belated "cool!" to those who also recently achieved a higher title! Love the new ones!! Now I have even a few more to gleefully look forward to.... and it's almost like a mystery, too! We have no idea if there's anything higher than 'Stayin' Alive' (although there were a few other witty good ones suggested at the time), so Matt and Tobe will be like our adventuring scouts, getting to the buried treasure first....

Thank you, Harriet and Russell!
One day it will become apparent that Mattlocked and I are in fact raiders of the lost ark...

At times, I AM the British Government. : )

Good for you :-))
