    I have no idea whether this is just a coincidence or some really detailed referencing.  It could likely be the latter, knowing the creators.

    Essay from A. A. Milne:


    -----------------------------------

    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?

    Nice find!  Yes, there was a song, and I'm ashamed to say that I can only remember the NSFW version.   So A A Milne is not a fan of 20th century Holmes!  I wonder what he'd make of our 21st century version?

    I can kind of see what AA Milne means...but I would hope he could be educated!

    Re: Comparing scenes in different adaptations

    Oh, thanks for this!  Very timely, as I've just rewatched Young Sherlock Holmes a few days ago and was struck by some of the parallels! Of those, I particularly noticed the staircase and the wound on the same place on Sherlock's face.  I was wondering if it was an influence on Moftiss, even subconsciously.

    They confessed a long time ago that thy consider every pastiche and adaptation a valid influence on their own work, so I´m sure the famous Steven Spielberg movie was not omitted from that.

    Toby plays a seriously creepy villain.
