There were some very spoilery pics on tumblr yesterday of a woman on a balcony. Anyone else see them?

Schmiezi · February 2, 2015 1:26 pm

Me. I am afraid that I love very spoilery things.

Yes, I saw them! That was spooky! Any idea as to which story in canon that could come from?

Vhanja · February 2, 2015 1:48 pm

Yeah, I saw those pics too. Interesting!

I'm telling you - dream/hallucination!

Benedict can definitely play a Victorian Sherlock. Handsome in these clothes ...

Rupert's on set! *flails*

I think all the men look terribly dashing in their Victoria suits.

Ben, Martin and Rupert look good in any era.

gently69 · February 2, 2015 2:50 pm

Any photos of Rupert yet?

mrshouse · February 2, 2015 2:51 pm

Yes, gently, go and check the boss' twitter account. But pictures of Martin? Haven't seen them.

They all look gorgeous, but I must admit that it is the pictures of the outside version of Victorian 221b that causes me to freak out a bit. That can only lead to a fantastic special.

They all look amazing! But I have to admit...I can't quite see Sherlock in Ben without the curls =/ The curls is what I associate our modern Sherlock with and without them I just see...well Ben. But I'm keeping my hopes up, it will all be brilliant when it's done!

I absolutely miss the curls but I think once we see him in action, actually "being" Sherlock, then we'll see Sherlock.

Yes, I think so. Sometimes when he has the curls but isn't acting Sherlock, he doesn't really look like Sherlock. I'm sure that he will look like Sherlock when he's acting.

This is so true. I remember seeing a short interview with Ben backstage on the Sherlock set. He was curly, on set and in full costume - even including the Belstaff - yet it was obvious from the very first second that he was Ben, not Sherlock. Quite fascinating, actually.

Amanda's on set! ^^

Yes I believe I really will se him as Sherlock when in action, but it's hard to imagine it when we have nothing to go on A pic with him, in costume and in action would be so awesome!
