Bonus info, I was wearing black and had wrapped my long blue scarf around my neck.

Haha, those girls didn't even know what Sherlock Holmes was. Not. a. clue.

My best friend always does, lol. I turned her into a Sherlockian last year and every time she sees me wear that scarf she yells "Whats up Sherlock??" after me

I don't know if I'm obsessed, but i could probably watch it every day... I bought the season 1 soundtrack on iTunes today. Maybe a tiny bit.....

That's how we've all begun, hun

I know I'm obsessed with Sherlock when I'm in the kitchen making dinner and the kids are watching Horrible Histories in the family room, and I suddenly hear a voice that I recognise; I go have a look, and sure enough it's Tessa from TSoT. The actress' name is Alice Lowe, I checked on IMDB

And to top that, tonight's episode had Mark Gatiss in it, looking very much like Mycroft, but with an American accent; and a reference to the Ancient Greek philosopher Diogenes!

I am watching a TV transmission from a wedding (they are making a 'royal' coverage of an ordinary young couple tying the knot)

And all I can think of? TSo3...

Ha! I've seen a pink cab drive away. Wonder why all I can think of is Sherlock yelling "PINK!"...

And last night, whilst walking round Savile Row (why not...I bet that's where Mycroft orders his suits), I saw a restaurant (?) shop (?) named AMISHI...
Couldn't help but point out that the spelling was wrong :D

... you find an 80's song on Youtube called 'I.O.U.' and you cannot stop feeling very happy about it! :D

LOL

More "obsessed by the actors of Sherlock" here.

On my way to the Barbican, I passed in front "Martin's Court", and a sign for "St. Andrew’s Church".
Now, I'm about to cross Westminster Bridge...look up and see "Martin" in capital letters.

"Obsessed" does seem to be the right word, doesn't it...?
Though there's nothing wrong with it, obviously.

"Obsessed" seems appropriate in your case, Lily

Yes, it would seem those names are definitely getting a certain reaction from you, lol.

I keep spotting locations from Sherlock whilst watching Doctor Who.

Firstly, I saw Sherlock's Mind Palace corridor (where he sees Redbeard) in an episode that I've forgotten the name of.

Then I recognised Dewer's Hollow in the DW episode "Robot of Sherwood", doubling as Robin Hood's forest hideout.

Tonight, I was watching another DW season 8 episode called "The Caretaker", and recognised this location straight away:

Of course we have seen those hearts before in His last Vow

I'm definitely obsessed

THAT's a really good catch!! I did notice the hallway actually come to think of it

Harriet · August 28, 2015 6:19 pm

Great, ukaunz!

Lilythiell · September 1, 2015 9:16 pm

...when one of your students is called "Antha".

Did you double check, too?

By the way, great one, ukaunz! Need to get back to the Doctor, now (assuming I can take the time, beginning of the school year and all that *sigh*)

Yitzock · September 1, 2015 9:58 pm

I had to look again at the name!

And yeah, it's funny when the locations in Doctor Who are also Sherlock locations. I can't remember which Doctor Who episode, maybe it was Hide I'm not sure, where the location is also the Diogenes Club.
