Another Johnlock moment:
Did you understand it?
Yes, of course I understood it, it was perfectly simple.
No, did you understand the murderous jealousy?

Re: The comprehensive Johnlock guide (Johnlockers only)
Oh, very good. I would say he is mixing to things here - jealousy of John's wife and his clever brother. And this is repeated in the church scene where Sherlock mistakenly thinks John is talking about their relationship and Mary shows her contempt for Sherlock and her appreciation of Mycroft.
And someone on tumblr pointed out that the sassy, clever, observant maid in TAB who analyses the Watsons' marriage problems has dark curls.

Agree.
And one more, hinting to the final problem 
Mrs Hudson: The devil. I wouldn't be surprised. We get all sorts here.

My first thought was - in 2010 she can casually say "There's all sorts round here."

I think the maid is representative of Harry Watson . When John runs from the big metaphorical gothic gay ghost because "I saw it I saw it " ,maybe a reference to Harrys problems and also the reason why he never talks about her .

Re: The comprehensive Johnlock guide (Johnlockers only)
Maybe - I saw that mentioned somewhere else, too, but am not sure ...
On the other hand, John has his own army of neglected women - "the one with the nose, ..."

Re: The comprehensive Johnlock guide (Johnlockers only)
John has someone in his life he never mentions and Sherlock is curious. He thinks they are , short sassy cute who is a sort of live in maid and gossips before mentioning serious things like telegrams.Aand is dubious about Johns marriage. Didn't go to the wedding .Sherlocks imaginings of a female John ? lol I don't know whats with the hair .

Re: The comprehensive Johnlock guide (Johnlockers only)
Not a female John, a female Sherlock
But I see your point now

Oh yes, that strikes me as well every time.
Had another viewing earlier on (damn that wasn't as great as I expected -the friend I was watching it with didn't seem to be too much "into it". I suppose she had her mind on other things.) and well.
I noticed that when they are in the desanctified church, Mary says "that's the heart of the conspiracy" while touching John 's chest -roughly in the area of his heart- who then shares a look with Sherlock.

Re: The comprehensive Johnlock guide (Johnlockers only)
To me it looks more like lower chest, almost belly?

Re: The comprehensive Johnlock guide (Johnlockers only)
Hum, yes you're right. Lower chest.
My bad.
But still, they do share a look after that. Can't help thinking about TJLC

Re: The comprehensive Johnlock guide (Johnlockers only)
This is truly amazing. I read most of this before TAB aired and I was very impressed my how much people deduced from some minutes.
As for the chest thing: It may be another part of his body that is hurting but it clearly reminds us that Sherlock is completely high when saying THIS about Mary.
