It's not easy to see, since it's the same colour, but here:
Perhaps a reference to the Moriarty/Richard Brook thing?

NEVER noticed that! *stops to ponder*

Does make sense, with the Richard Brook thing

Woah.... I never noticed that (or had it pointed out to) either! Cool!

Yes, I've noticed this for a long time. "Make believe" seems to be Kitty's motto as a tabloid journalist.

The camera purposefully pauses on it for a brief moment in this shot:
Which makes me think there is more to the 'fairy tales' than we've gotten so far.

This just confuses me more. Very interesting though x

Well spotted, Kittykat.
She tried to make us believe in Richard Brook, but we still believe in Sherlock Holmes, don't we ?

Yep, I noticed this one, too.

Hm... interesting. Every time I watch Sherlock I just see more and more references!

It wasn't until today that I noticed that my bluray player apparently belongs to Kitty's company...

It's a conspiracy!

Well, there's lots of make believe in that episode, just think about Sherlock faking suicide, that's also some kind of make believe, isn't it? And someone made John believe, if only for a little while, that Mrs. Hudson was badly injured to lure him away from Sherlock. And yeah, of course Jim... his Richard Brook, the story-teller... that's pure make believe, right?
Maybe it's just a little sign for us to tell us to look closer, to not believe everything we see.

No I think it's to indicate the fantasy Moriarty is weaving about Sherlock to MAKE people BELIEVE it's all true and ultimately Sherlock will MAKE John BELIEVE he is dead...

Exactly. IMO, the Make believe is Mofftiss' motto. Nothing is what it looks like. Be careful and don't believe anything. Comic books become reality (no connection to Moriarty) , fairy tales are told and played in "real life".
I'm the story-teller. Did I almost get you? Did you almost start to wonder if I was real? Mind games. That's what you do, you sell a big lie and wrap it up in a truth to make it more palatable. Playing with reality and fiction is a running theme.
Everything is a bit surreal in Sherlock, isn't it?

I find it gut wrenchingly real.

Brilliant.
