Re: MEMBERS POLL: What's your age?

One of the reasons I don't register with a lot of forums is that I feel old and decrepit at the age of 36.  It's great to see such a mix of ages here.

That doesn't hold true on a Political board I frequent, but then we know what they say about politics.  We're all old enough to know better, yet fight like little bullies.  And we're on the same side!

This place is a joy.

Hey, we won! We won! How did that happen? 
What are you talking about, this is not a competition?

Re: MEMBERS POLL: What's your age?

It's not a competition, Sammy...
But we still won!!!

Re: MEMBERS POLL: What's your age?

Hi Everyone!  Really surprosed to see the age range for devotees of Sherlock (and the gorgeous Benedict Cumberbatch)! As an older fan myself it's refreshing to know I'm not the only one out there!  Having loved the stories of Conan Doyle since a very early age, I find BBC's Sherlock to be inventive, modern, brilliantly scripted and sublimely acted by an exceptional cast AND it still remains true to the original concept.

Bristol eh! Not far from Cardiff. You might get to see some filming next series.

Ultra-competitive ones...it's not a competition. I know it's an Olympic year 'n' all but we haven't gone through the finish line yet!

Hm, interesting!
We should get ourselves a 70+ member.

It's curious that the people here are mostly older. I guess it's because it's "just" a good ol' fan forum and not something like tumblr which still is kinda new (well..) and dominated by young folk.
But, as you pointed out, this might be the reason it's so calm and relaxed here! (which is very nice!)

Who shares the first category with me?
Molly, you there? And who else? 

I share the first category.

Re: MEMBERS POLL: What's your age?

Welcome to the first bar, Smoggy 

Well, anyway, our bar is the longest so that's like winning. Pah.
Nah, just joking... of course it's not a competition!

Wow, look at how much the poll results have changed. Isn't that the most peculiar thing~!
The length of the bars are decreasing with every category quite evenly... and then there's like "50-60". Haha.

Still no 70+ member

Re: MEMBERS POLL: What's your age?

I tried to get a 70+ member to join the other week but I think I failed.

Re: MEMBERS POLL: What's your age?

It was a friend's mum at Ascot. We were quietly 'admiring' the wonderful Mr. Cumberbatch. She went even more girlie and giggly talking about him than I did!i even wrote the name of this forum out for her on a scrap of paper.

Re: MEMBERS POLL: What's your age?

I'm surprised how young a crowd Sherlock Holmes has drawn here. I'm the only one of my friends I know who's read the entire canon.

Two good-lookin' men, roaming the streets of London, marching to the beats of their own drummers, lots of action/adventure, some humor, some angst, some pathos, lots and lots of friendship stuff like no friendship anyone has ever seen on TV before-- naturally young folks are watching. And a lot of us old folks, too. I'm beating a dead horse again, but why in heck is it necessary to have read ACD to enjoy this TV show? I understand that it's cool to pick up on how the current writers have pulled ideas from original canon, but believe me, I know personally that someone can come to this show with zero knowledge of original canon and enjoy it juuuuuust fiiiiiiine.
