    I cannot live without brainwork. What else is there to live for? Stand at the window there. Was there ever such a dreary, dismal, unprofitable world? See how the yellow fog swirls down the street and drifts across the dun-coloured houses. What could be more hopelessly prosaic and material? What is the use of having powers, Doctor, when one has no field upon which to exert them?

    Re: The comprehensive Johnlock guide (Johnlockers only)

    I have read the book, all three of them, to be exact. And do you know what the best thing about this passage is? Until then you believe the main character to be a strictly heterosexual womaniser. So Mark Gatiss wrote a book about a man we believer to be only interested in women and who then is revealed to be passionately bisexual. Just saying.

    Re: The comprehensive Johnlock guide (Johnlockers only)

    Here is another quote from the very same book, p. 103:

    "All the nice girls love a sailor."

    And an even better one from p. 8:

    "A baroness once told me that she could cut her wrists on my cheekbones."

    This trilogy is quite a rollercoaster ride which shows that Mark is capable of about anything. Completely insane story but great.

    I agree with all four points.

    Yes. I imagine the team brainstorming and someone saying, "Come on, let's put a naked Watson in there, throw in a da Vinci allusion, straightest artist ever, *wink, wink* and let's see how quick they'll find it."

    Lovely, Susi. 
    That is their onscreen chemistry in a nutshell I should say.
    Isn't it interesting, if we are delusional and just overinterpreting things, why such scenes at all?

    Oh, I think by now no one is calling is delusional anymore. At least not in here. 
    And I love this quote, could have been written after watching the scene.
