I'm always surprised that the TV show do is so wrong and think that the audience won't notice...but I guess you don't need to make a first aid qualification for a driver license in the US or Britain, right? It's a requirement in Germany (and also a part of the swimming lessons the DLRG gives), and while I bet that most people forget what they learned as soon as they have their license (never mind that everytime I did one of those lessons, the rules for the rythm had changed again), they can't be THAT forgetful that they don't know that what they show in TV doesn't work.
But then, I guess a lot of woman have experienced a birth at one point, and they don't try to portray it realistic either, even though I bet that they roll their eyes too.

It's not a requirement for a license, but I was first certified in middle school as part of a class we had to take...I don't think every school does that, but mine did.  I've since been recertified several times since, mostly because I had babysitting jobs and it's a requirement.  My last certification was a couple of years ago, but I haven't been recertified recently.

As for babies, you can take every class and read every book in the world about it...and it still won't prepare you when the day finally comes.  My first child was 2 weeks late and I went into labor on Christmas day!  She was born over 36 hours later, though, right after midnight on Dec 27th.  I had all sorts of problems with the pitocin and epidural, and recovery afterwards.  My second kid was an absolute breeze.  I went into labor at 3 am, went to the hospital, walked around for a while, paid bills and talked on the phone.  He came 12 hours later and with absolutely no trouble.

Both of my kids were very different, but somehow, every kid on television has the same type of birth ;) 

I read Charles Augustus Milverton last night, and I can see what you guys were talking about. He's a nasty piece of work! Not sure how we'll see him in Series 3 but I hope they include the part with Sherlock and John infiltrating the house and hiding behind the curtains. That was great stuff! 

And I want to see John throw a chair at him, he deserves it.

Just a quick note, if it's suspected of being a spoiler picture (anything at all from series 3), it will be taken down.  They don't allow spoiler pictures in that thread.  You can, however, post it here.

I really hope that it is what I think it is! I read the story with Milverton last night and I hope they have the scenes with Sherlock and John infiltrating the house, it was so cool! They're wearing dark clothes, so it could be...

Right, but we've seen nothing from His Last Vow yet. Maybe it's from that, brand new?

They could be. In the story with Milverton Sherlock and John were wearing dark clothes to break into the house, so it's possible.

@kittykat: Well, Sherlock is sort of always wearing dark clothes... dark coat, dark trousers, dark scarf, mostly dark shirts... But anything is possible.
