Re: John's reaction to Sherlock's deduction
I also think Moriarty deliberately targeted ' vulnerable' victims and those who would test Sherlock's emotions.

Woman, man, old, disabled, young and finally...a 'friend'.

Don't make people into heroes John. Heroes don't exist and if they did I wouldn't be one of them.

Re: John's reaction to Sherlock's deduction
Moriarty was signing his own death warrant. No one messes with Sherlock's only friend and lives to tell the tale.

So true. His reaction the three times John is threatened by someone is most revealing. Just think of the hint of panic in his eyes when he's to open Irene's safe while the American threatens to shoot John. His revenge later on isn't just for Mrs Hudson, is it?

Re: John's reaction to Sherlock's deduction
Not the deduction this thread was originally referring to (the van Buren supernovea on the painting), but I just noticed a little funny thing.
Sherlock solved the Connie Prince case, leaving behind a disappointed John after having railed him with his deduction.
Just look what's written on the street. (Poor John!
)

SLOW 
I wonder if it's coincidence...

Re: John's reaction to Sherlock's deduction
Nice discovery. Poor John. 
The people behind the camera know what they're doing, and since the scene was probably shot several times, I think they were aware of it. But I don't think they deliberately chose this part of the street just to make the "slow" appear in the background.

Re: John's reaction to Sherlock's deduction
Unless the plot requires them, suddenly, to not work or not have signal. You know, at the time when it will cause the most problems...
- 'Walk back to where you came from.'
- 'What did you say? Sorry, Sherlock, bad signal.'

Paul McGuigan likes his shots. He probably liked the long. broad avenue....Cardiff Uni, I believe.
