Yes. Utterly and completely in love.

My heart...

It's 2016 and hopefully Moftiss won't have kept true to the RL timeline with S4 so it's still taking place in 2014/2015 so maybe, just maybe our boys are out there going for a walk to all their crime scene locations (date nights) and then having dinner at Angelos tonight.

These videos are very convincing, I admit I'm very tempted to become a believer again. Looking forward to seeing more from Rebekah

Thank you for posting this, Harriet!
I'm really glad I've listened to these, and await the next episode quite a bit. I mean, she's going to tackle the gayest episode ever.
It will be glorious.

Yes, an excellent idea.
I've subscribed to it, as well. Could be useful. I'm definitely going to show these to the English spealing friend whom I cannot make see the light. I figure if I can't, certainly someone else can.

Just listened to it. Will need to watch the Pilot again. Because of reasons. Scientific reasons.

What I had missed in Pilot from TJLC context so far, and got in this episode:

The first thing Sherlock is wrong about is that Harry is actually not straight. (I see here also a parallel to the overlooked women in TAB)
The Colour Pink
The scene with the Cabbie ("I can get anything I want from you now, anything") and Sherlock on his knees with his bum up 
"You're looking for a man with a history in military service and nerves of steel" (Oh Yes, Sherlock, you ARE looking for such man indeed, and now I start believing in your military kink!   )

and I loved her Parallel Universe Story at the end! 

This is a bit OT, but just something I thought people here might be interested in.

I just watched an episode of Doctor Who called "The Lodger", it was a bit like an episode of "Coupling" even though Moffat didn't write it. There was a romantic sitcom-type subplot. Two of the characters, Craig and Sophie, are close platonic friends. However both want to take it further, but both are too scared to come out and say it. Craig wanders around practising saying "I love you" but keeps missing the opportunity. Sophie is shown to be pining for him. Obviously neither wants to ruin the friendship they have (it's the old "just friends" trope).

There's even a "I'm not his date" scene:

CRAIG: No, Soph just stands on the sidelines, she's my mascot.
SOPHIE: I'm your mascot? Mascot?!
CRAIG: Well, not my mascot, it's a football match, I can't take a date.
SOPHIE: I didn't say I was your date.
CRAIG: Neither did I. (They stand in awkward silence.)

So it's all desperately unspoken, and then we see Craig's fridge with a photo of the two of them, and look what else is on the fridge.

There's an elephant in the room!

By the end of the episode Craig and Sophie have admitted their feelings and are together. We see them joyfully "spoiling their friendship" (snogging on the sofa). We also see another shot of the fridge with the photo – but this time, we don't see the elephant.

Interesting?

Thank you, ukaunz, I remember the episode, it was wonderful. And look at the telling fridge - wow!
