He does have one of those faces, as does Martin actually, that can often look much younger than their actual years. I actually quite liked his hair in TTSS.

Nice find Sammy!

If anyone is interested in the music from that video it's from a video game called Dead Island (18+ players only).

It's got a phenomenal trailer which you can see below:

Who would have knew that video games could deliver this level of emotion?

Eew!!
I see why it's an 18...
I thought I'd be safe if I just skipped to near the end, I was wrong...
Well, that's taught me to abide by age regulations!

Oh yes, I love this trailer, it's really well made! I don't know if the game is any good, though.
Ha, I love zombies. And hate them. (Actually always somebody asks me if I'm afraid of anything I say "zombie apocalypse".)

The music is very beautiful. So beautiful that I went to iTunes instantly after having found the Sherlock vid to buy the song ;).
It does have a bit weird feeling to it that it's the soundtrack to a zombie shooter game... Like "Hey, check this song out!" - "Wow, what is it? It's beautiful!" - "Well..." haha :D

Not related, but out of interest - hay somebody seen the Eurovision?

I'd rather eat my own eyes and ears than watch Eurovision Sammy, but I'm sure others here will have enjoyed it.

Sorry, m0r but I really enjoyed it!!

Sweden was alright but I wanted RUSSIA!

Davina · May 29, 2012 6:49 am

Not watched. Eyes and ears intact this end!

Sammy · May 29, 2012 5:14 pm

Hahaha, of course there is more bad than good in the Eurovision contest, but I think the fun of it is making fun of it and rooting for you country..
Yes, Russia was hilarious!
Of course I supported Germany although I know we wouldn't win, but I think being 8th is not so bad (and our singer is a really cute lad ;))

Anyway, did somebody get the message from the German moderator? I think it was quite brave!

Davina · May 29, 2012 5:55 pm

Good for her to use the opportunity to promote democracy.

Danke - Anke!

I thought Germany was quite good! Well, compared to the UK it was mind-blowing!!

Yeah, I thought so, too...

Wuhuuu, since Mark Gatiss commented on like the whole Eurovision he also tweeted at some point:
"Pretty German. I like Germans."

Yeah! Do you hear that, tobeornot221b, he likes us!

I think it's awesome that Steven and Mark are such active twitter..ers(or whatever you call them)!

He'd better to! Finally - who provides Sherlock with all the grim fairytale stuff, Johann Sebastian Brook, a plane crash in Düsseldorf, Ingolstadt and Rache?

Davina · May 31, 2012 12:22 pm

I think I'm correct in saying that Mark does, in fact, sometimes Tweet in Deutsch.

Tantalus · May 31, 2012 8:06 pm

Changing gears...

Last night, I watched THoB, mainly 'cause I needed a mental break from TRF. I was shocked to see a trailer for Robert Downey, Jr.'s 2nd Holmes movie! Is that on the British DVDs as well?

wow that's odd. I have the UK DVDs. I don't think that's in there.

m0r1arty · June 1, 2012 2:03 am

Piracy. It's what Sherlock wanted to get into first.

If without UK TV License then buy the DVDs - but only to ensure more are made.

-m0r

Davina · June 1, 2012 11:07 am

It is absolutely, definitely, certainly NOT on the BBC UK DVDs! Pieces of eight, mate!

Sammy · June 1, 2012 5:27 pm

Wow, what a coincidence, I also happened to have watched Hounds last night!
Okay, maybe not so much since there are only 6 episodes to choose from and we're all Sherlockians who frequently re-watch...

Tantalus · June 1, 2012 7:38 pm

Let me tell you, it's quite a shock to the system to be expecting the gently flipping pages of the Masterpiece Theatre logo, and instead get Robert Downey, Jr. in your face. I even checked the DVD to make sure I had the correct one in! What in the world? That's like going to the Mercedes dealership, and the owner shows you a late model Ford.
