Yes. Sherlock in two weeks really is the most important thing.

I should be thrilled and happy with upcoming chrismas and Sherlock series 3 nearly there. But to be honest I am very upset at the moment because of those two... don't know how to call it... scandals(?), incidents(?) that recently happend.
I am furious and aghast about the CM incident at the world premiere.
And I am terrified and disappointed about Martins interview. Of course I don't think that he stated his personal opinion and I know, he has a rough humour sometimes and yes, he is a human being and allowed to make mistakes but still... he should have been more careful about what to say in an interview. I just wondered how people, fans who had expierenced some sort of sexial violence in the past may feel now after reading or seeing this interview.

Maybe it's because of the christmas stress or trouble at work that I react so emotional about these but currently I am just very very sad .

In regards to the Martin incident...I won't go into details, but speaking as someone who has experience with that kind of horrible trauma, I will say (and this is just my opinion and in no way is intended to belittle anyone elses) that I do not take great offense to what Martin said, yes it was a very bad joke, tasteless (to say the least) and evidence that really one should think before they speak. I understand completely why people would take what he said badly, for good reason. For these reasons though, I am not that upset with him; he obviously wasn't being serious and it clearly isn't his personal opinion, it was clear that he realized when saying it that he made a mistake and didn't subsequently try to justify it, no one is perfect, unless someone says something and means it as a serious thing it shouldn't be taken seriously and it's best to let it go, he deserves to be forgiven for the mistake because like I said above - he wasn't being serious and must be under a lot of stress for obvious reasons. I would say all  that about anyone really, celebrity or not, although it does strongly depend on the circumstances. Really, it can't help to dwell on a mistake someone else has made, especially when you believe them to be a good person. Overall, I think it's time to move on and focus on Sherlockian goodness, better to put positive energy out there in the universe than negative.

BBC One tweeted that Martin Freeman and Amanda Abbington will be on The One Show tonight.
I expect that U.K. people will hear a comment about these two incidents. And more important, about Sherlock Series 3.
 
Can anyone watch and tell the rest of the world tomorrow?

Oops, just opened a thread concerning their appearance there tonight. I am certainly going to watch it.
And I'm making a wild guess it will all be about the upcoming series of we-all-know-what.
