Black and white... gosh. Perfection! Especially with this special!

The gun thing killed me... I had to hold my breath... that was so, yes, as you already said it, homoerotic! Rawr!

Also... the second one of them rehearsing the Reichenbach scene... it looks like the beat has just dropped!

I live for homoerotic at this point. haha

It would be interesting to see Ben and Andrew in another film/series together with different characters of course.

I keep telling myself that professionally they are just very good actors.
I know they are close friends in real life, but I don't actually know if that helps.
I mean, look how well Benedict and Martin act together and they didn't know each other before.

I find the dynamic between Moriarty and Sherlock much more interesting, also because Moriarty aways seems to have the upper hand and they have a lot in common especially in thinking. And Moriartys flirting and suggestiveness is almost a bit predatory. Therefore I'd like to see Ben and Andrew in a different relationship like friends (without being sociopath/psychopath) in a romanic comedy or something, just to see how that looks like.
(I like their friendship off set. I squeak a bit when I saw that Andrew was invited to Bens wedding, I had no idea how close they are, I just knew he's close to Hiddles.)

John and Sherlock is a big bromance or whatever it is. I'm not sure sometimes.

besleybean · January 6, 2016 9:27 am

Sherlock + John is a definite bromance, no doubt.
Well presumably Sherlock +Moriarty can never happen now, anyway.
I tend to feel Moriarty is just toying with Sherlock, in a cat and mouse way.
But who knows about Sherlock?

Ivy · January 6, 2016 9:36 am

Yes definitely Moriarty is playing/toying with him and it works.
I don't think Sherlock/Moriarty would/should have happen(ed) just in the minds of some fanfiction writers. I'm okay with that. And lets be honest everyone squealed a bit at that "kiss" in TEH that never happened. But I like how Sherlock is obsessed with him, or better how they are obsessed with each other.

besleybean · January 6, 2016 9:44 am

Indeed and boy that kiss would have been good.
I'm again reminded of something in real life, but had better keep quiet.

Ivy · January 6, 2016 10:13 am

do tell!

Lilythiell · January 6, 2016 11:34 am

I'll admit that I didn't squeal -but there definitely was some reaction. Giggling, or something.

I do understand the appeal of Sheriarty. I mean, not only are the actors hot -yep, I said it. Sue me :-P- but the danger of their personalities...yeah, I see why one'd be pulled.
I'm not, though.
It's Johnlock all the way for me :-P -what, you didn't know? ;)

besleybean · January 6, 2016 11:36 am

The only characters I ship are John and Mary and possibly Greg and Molly!
Philip and Sally don't seem to be together anymore.

Ivy · January 6, 2016 12:56 pm

I ship Greg and Molly, I'd like to see that.

The "B" is silent.

besleybean · January 6, 2016 1:13 pm

@Tonnaree Huh?

Ivy · January 6, 2016 1:21 pm

No 7 are the fat suit pics, oh Mark! he actually could walk in that thing.LOL

besleybean · January 6, 2016 1:23 pm

Yes, fantastic.

This Is The Phantom Lady · January 6, 2016 1:37 pm

Lovely set photo from Sue. I just got a memory thing on facebook... last year I commented all excitedly about this episode starting shooting Awh.

And the screen caps are lovely! Gosh, Mark's face!!

Ivy · January 6, 2016 1:49 pm

that fat suit thing goes on on at no 15 and so on. Very interesting, poor guy, that probably took awhile
