Hi guys, I wanted to collect how many people have died throuhout the series in connection with Sherlock starting from Series 1 Episode 1; include case related victims & villains.

Study in Pink: 5 forced suicides & 1 cabbie (that I can remember)

Please help me to add more.

A Study in Pink: Sir Jeffrey Petterson, James Phillimore, Beth Davenport, Jennifer Wilson, Jeff Hope
The Blink Banker: Eddie van Coom, Brian Lukis, Soo Lin Yao, Zhi Zhu, General Shan
The Great Game: Connie Prince, Alex Woodbridge, Professor Cairns, Andrew West, old lady + eleven people (Also: Carl Powers many years ago and Barry Berwick, who is likely to be exucuted)
A Scandal in Belgravia: the man in the car, the sportsman with the boomerang, the CIA-agent in Irene's house (Also: the woman in the morgue who looked like Irene, numerous people on the plane)
The Hounds of Baskerville: Bob Frankland (Also Henry's father many years ago)
The Reichenbach Fall: The two assassins who tried to save Sherlock's life, Moriarty (?)
The Empty Hearse: ... wait, did anyone actually die in that one?
The Sign of Three: I think no one died in that one either?! (Apart from the men who died under Sholto's command)
His Last Vow: Charles Augustus Magnussen, Lady Smallwood's husband

I probably missed some. And do we only count present time victims? What about people like Carl Powers or the passengers of the 'flight of the dead'?

Oh my, that sounds like a difficult task... a lot of people died in the course of that show. Were you... bored, by any chance?
