It's a strange pic, because the one who is often in the middle of every photo is Sherlock. But this time, John is between the Holmes brothers. It seems to me that Mycroft is speaking about something Sherlock knows and John doesn't. The three of them aren't looking to one another's eyes. John listens carefully and thoughtfully. Interesting pic.

Mycroft explaining to John about Sherrinford/Eurus?

No, it is not a real synopsis. It´s just a little joke.

Thanks! It was really funny, too!

Hahahaha! I can imagine that!

Hope this is the right thread for this as I originally posted it in the Johnlock Debate Thread - sorry about that!

There was a preview screening of The Final Problem in London last night...

It seems that there was no Johnlock kiss or confirmation that they are in a romantic or sexual relationship.

The nasty and abusive tweets to Mark, Sue and Arwel have begun already. As I predicted a few months ago, sadly this is not going to be pleasant.

I'm sorry, Shani, I had to provide the link just in case!
Here's the thread I've been talking about:

You know, I was puzzling and puzzling about why the other chess picture was a spoiler, and this one, or the similar picture without the chess board wasn't. And I think now that it all it was is that they were meant to be released in order. We see them conferring, they start playing chess, and Sherlock gets annoyed or is a bad loser.

I think you are right... There's a story told in these pictures, but we'll know for sure tomorrow night !

**Posted by besleybean** January 14, 2017 8:47 am

Or Sherlock is quivering over what has to be done?

**Posted by ewige** January 14, 2017 8:58 am

I have the three pics saved in order already ;)
Still not cononsidering the last one a huge spoiler. Just Sherlock being a spoilsport. Or upsetting Mycroft's carefully laid plans for a good reason.

Just had a weird moment... I decided to watch a TV series called Black Mirror. First episode, starring Rory Kinnear as the UK Prime Minister, had a scene that revolved around the Home Secretary – played by Lindsay Duncan – ordering a D-Notice! The episode was aired in 2011, so I'm guessing Moftiss may have been inspired by the scene when writing HLV/TST.

**Posted by besleybean** January 14, 2017 11:17 am

I think we all remember that episode for other things!

**Posted by Meretricious** January 14, 2017 11:25 am

Yeah I kind of wish I'd never watched it... but the D-Notice scene distracted me a little. I'm going to delete the rest.

**Posted by besleybean** January 14, 2017 11:28 am

And of course more recently, the infamous scene relates to our former prime minister!

It's off-topic but now I'm curious. What is the "infamouse scene"?
