Phenomenal. Two Sherlock's in one picture.

That image is really too dark to see very well, but I thought it was a wardrobe with a mirrored front. No?

Sorry, yes it is.
It's a forum joke,
We've previously had forum rows over people saying there was no wardrobe in the room!

We may find out in S3!

Maybe S3 will show us that inner sanctum. One can hope. Actually, one can hope about lots and lots of things!

I don't hope for much,to be honest!

I have no words to describe how happy I am to have found people as obsessed with (insignificant) details as I am. So, as requested, a caption of Sherlock's wardrobe.

I have an overwhelming urge to make you all notice his perfect behind....

What, you think we didn't notice already?!

I expect it was the first thing everyone noticed but I still had an urge to point it out....Thud

There is a "fan" in Sherlock's bedroom.
People are already guessing about the rest of the bedroom. Arwelwjones tweeted a picture of another perspective with a lamp, a chair, a fan and made fans guessing about a framed picture.

Who is this person? A teacher because he is looking up at something perhaps a board, a person in a laboratory because of his white suit/lab coat?

My idea (probably wrong because there might be a tie) is that it can be a martial arts teacher in Japan who wears a white gi (training suit). I have a picture of the founder of Aikido in my flat (though not in my bedroom).
Have a look at him:

I just realized something: in the front of the building, there are only the two windows of John's and Sherlock's living room, the door and the front of the cafe...Mrs. Hudson's kitchen must have windows which go out to the back...does that mean that Sherlock dragged the CIA agent to the back window in order to threw in on the bins?

Yes

He deserved it!

Yeah I'm actually wondering if part of Mrs Hudson't flat backs onto the rear of Speedy's...
She can only have: bathroom, bedroom and an open plan kitchen/living room, I think. I can't actually see there being space for much more.
I think where we see her front door, at the the end of the ground floor hall, is in line with the hall door, from the(upstairs)kitchen down to John and Sherlock's bathroom and the latter's bedroom.
I'm assuming John's bedroom is above Sherlock and John's living room.
I am now entirely happy with the geography of the boys' flat, but I'll have to watch scenes in Mrs H's flat more closely.
It is hard to work out. I'd kind of assumed her front and back doors were opposite each other...
You know the blank door in the downstairs hall? I'd always assumed it goes through to Speedy's, but it would give more room for Mrs H's flat, if it was actually part of her space!

This is what I'm thinking...
Go through that door and you are straight in the the ' kitchen' we see, with the back door that Sherlock enters through and the window by the bins!
But where everything else is?

**Posted by besleybean** August 17, 2013 5:30 pm

Well, it's her own personal; outside door, which leads to the back of the building!
The exrenal front door is the one Sherlock and John meet at!
Sherlock looks through her internal front door(ooh er!), when he sees her abandoned cleaning things,cos of the CIA.I think!

**Posted by besleybean** August 20, 2013 5:26 am

Another room in Mrs H 's flat!

I would think that Irene being asleep like that in Sherlock's bed, hair down, jumper on makes her seem quite ordinary and somewhat vunerable. She looks like a girl asleep (waiting for a prince to awaken her with a kiss perhaps?)

Total agreement Davina. Irene is quite calculating and here she's going for the vulnerable little girl look. (The sex godess look didn't work on Sherlock so she's thinking the innocent look might). It's her ploy to get a knight in shining armour to rescue her and give her the secret of the code she needs.

Another thought... Irene's style is impeccable. I would prefer high thread count sheets over low count (John's) anytime. The fact that she's literally enthralled with Sherlock certainly helps, as well. In my opinion, (for both Sherlock and Irene) this is an intellectual game, and I believe it was waged from the moment she appeared in "battle dress". They enjoy the tug and pull of this battle of wits and constantly (and pleasantly) underestimate each other. I think the only time she's ever especially vulnerable is when she "asks him to dinner" and he takes her pulse.
