Hello everyone!
John "F" Watson was my great-great (however many greats) grandfather that married into my family in 1632. No idea what the "F" stands for, no idea about him at all. I've been a Sherlock Holmes fan for years, and previously my favorite Sherlock has been Basil Rathbone. Although I'm a fan of Masterpiece Mystery, I missed BBC Sherlock when it was first shown, and watched it on dvd. I was hooked from the first few minutes! Really looking foward to series 3, and some interesting deductions on this forum!

Welcome John Watson, I hope you'll have fun with a crazy bunch of Sherlockians.

Re: Hello everyone!
Ha! Basil is my favorite Sherlock rendition as well. I recently watched through all of the shows, ending s2, e3 at about 4 this morning. I stumbled upon this forum and you seem to be a fun bunch, so I thought I'd join.
Come along now, Toby!

Re: Hello everyone!
Hello and welcome John F Watson!
I grew up watching Basil Rathbone as Sherlock, but I have recently discovered Jeremy Brett and like him as well.

Re: Hello everyone!
Welcome, John. Family history is quite fascinating, is it not?
