Well, some people do moan about Mark and Steven a bit.
Also, I know not everybody has to personally like all of the actors, but I have occasionally sensed a bit of negativity towards Amanda for instance. I was a tad guilty of that, but mainly because I had been duped by fake tweets.
Then again people have the right to dislike for instance, the portrayal of Moriarty...and in fact John or Mary for that matter.
But we should possibly all at least be aware of the thought process in presenting characters in a particular way.
Further, maybe not just disliking a character, because they somehow don't quite fit in with ones particular world view.

Here's hoping.

I'd actually forgotten about the Sophie stuff...that seemed so much worse.

Though I feel I should point out, the spoiler is in relation to what Steven(and a bit of Mark) said at the Q&A.

Poor Arwel, he shouldn't have to apologise but it's very sweet that he did. He doesn't have to interact with fans and if people have interpreted his posts incorrectly that's their issue not his. Even if his posts were "misleading" that is no excuse to abuse him (or anyone connected with the show). I guess being in the public eye you do have to develop a thick skin though as there is always going to be someone not happy with what you're doing.

Like you guys have already said and I've previously mentioned any negativity towards those connected with the show does not represent the majority of the fandom, it's just that negative people always just seem to be louder, so I'm sure, well hope, it doesn't affect them too much. I'm sure they are, sadly, used to it now but I'm also sure the positive messages they recieve far outweigh the negative.

I'm almost forgetting this is a spoiler because we have already been told that JL is not going to happen previously.  But, I do think that if it's based on reports from the BFI screening, then it counts a spoiler.   And I think that for people who expected it to happen, it will actually be a massive spoiler (and disappointing).  

Anyway, about the fan reaction to it - I think it is a small minority who will react badly.  There has been nothing bad on this forum directed towards the crew. 

I can't speak for the others, but I'm not reacting badly.  I'm relieved!  I never wanted to see slash on any of the episodes, and I'm glad to know that it's not on these episodes either.
 

I wouldn't, but it isn't going to happen- so the point is moot.

Sorry, to clarify:  I would still watch, but then I would still watch with or without kiss.
I just know the kiss isn't going to happen.
I would only expect it if one or both of them were dying and I don't think that will happen, either.

I would like to, dear...I really would.
But unlike others, I would also take a one off stand alone episode...hell I would take anything..
But I just don't think we are going to get anything for a very long time...
I just hope they are repeated often on TV.
I mean I know I have Netflix and the dvds...even so.
