Yes, you are right, this could be a bit too much for a beginner.

But there are people who only know the German dubbing and yet they are able to connect the dots.

Although, we had Loriot. At least.

Yes, I love Loriot. One of the all-time highlights of German TV.

Rebroadcast of "Der leere Sarg" tonight on German television Einsfestival at 21:40, followed by "Im Zeichen der Drei" at 23:05 - the perfect way to start my weekend.

Re: Der leere Sarg (TEH), German TV ARD, May 29, 2014

A question to the German Sherlock fans:

I'd love to know what precisely John called Sherlock in the German version when he found out that the underground carriage was NOT going to blow up. How on earth do you translate "you cock!" into German without sounding terribly gross?

And is it true that they address each other with the formal "Sie" rather than the informal "Du" in the German version??? (I can't believe they do!)

Re: Der leere Sarg (TEH), German TV ARD, May 29, 2014

Hmm ... not sure about this but I think they used  something like "Sauhund". Looked up the translation. I think cunt is the right word.

And yes, they used the "Sie" until the "big question" scene of TSoT. That was horrible, when you knew the original version.

OMG, tell me that isn't true. A friend of mine who watched it in German complained about how they say "Sie" when they first meet in ASIP, but that was way back when ASIP first aired. I thought she had a point but I was sure they'd switch to "Du" by TBB.

I can see how the "big question" scene in TSOT actually becomes more poignant if you choose this to be the moment when they switch from "Sie" to "Du"... but "Sie Sauhund!" in TEH? How can you call somebody a Sauhund and still siez them at the same time?

Yes, unfortunately you can. And you can say "Bitte seien Sie nicht nicht tot."

Re: Der leere Sarg (TEH), German TV ARD, May 29, 2014

Are the critics and the general public in Germany happy with this (since the fans obviously aren't ... ) or has there been a debate about it in the reviews?

I think the debate was mainly among dedicated fans. I cannot remember reviews mentioning it at all before series 3 when they changed it.

And although there have been a lot of reviews about S3, I think that "Sherlock" still isn't very present in the consciousness of the general audience in Germany. People watch it and that's pretty much it. For most people it's just another BBC series.

I had also the impression that german critics didn't really care about that issue.

Re: Der leere Sarg (TEH), German TV ARD, May 29, 2014

I think it is a fact that dubbing is usually taken for granted and not even discussed in reviews. The same goes for most literary translations, btw. The critics treat the books as if they were talking about the original, quite often not even mentioning the translator. Which is a pity.

Re: Der leere Sarg (TEH), German TV ARD, May 29, 2014

I am really curious how other countries handle this issue. I mean Germany is not the only country which uses dubbing. I think (though I might be wrong) France or Spain also do dubbing in TV and as far as I remember from school in their languages are also a formal and an informal address. How is the dubbing done in other countries in connection with the address between John and Sherlock?
