They are beautiful! At first it made me think of Moriarty on the screens... but then I saw it, the rainbow! <3

Someone on twitter just pointed out that Mrs Hudson will probably be up in a moment, complaining about the leak!

It totally looks like blood to me... not water.
And the whole scene looks CGI.
But I'm appropriately scared and impressed!

I just saw this - omg! What are they doing?

**Posted by ewige** November 30, 2016 9:24 pm

Raising expectations to the wholly new level? ;)

**Posted by Vhanja** November 30, 2016 9:26 pm

This is so unlike what they've done before.

I am so not prepared for this...

Oh god, what a tease! Looks like they'll be drowning in angst, dysfunction, and horror.
I love it!
Are we there yet?

Well, just in setlock we saw a beach, a boat on a river, another swimming pool and rain.

Hmmmm...I hope it isn't a reference to "Alone on the Water"....

Can we please talk about the rainbow colours in the PBS version?

Talking about it is paramount. The chonce of colours does not fit the atmosphere of the teaser. Not at all. It must have a meaning!

But what are we to make of the three skulls in the picture?

**Posted by miriel68** December 1, 2016 7:09 am

I think they are "frozen" because these are photos taken of them which then have been put into the GCI frame, don't you agree?

Also

a scene by a big river (with the little girl), a scene over the Thames, and wasn't there filming at London Aquarium?

. And there's a "shark" somewhere in the mix too.

YOU TAKE THAT BACK! *gross sobbing*

**Posted by KeepersPrice** December 1, 2016 4:59 pm

Ok, Tonnaree, I take it back.

But it makes me wonder (although not really seriously) if the Moftiss would ever give a nod to a fan fiction story - other than their own of course. Ha, ha.

**Posted by Vhanja** December 1, 2016 5:26 pm

Well, they did give several nods towards various shipping communities.

This is one fic I really, really do not want to see in the show.

Here's a play on words I made on my Tumblr for the short 'watery' trailer.

http://opaljade.tumblr.com/image/153907825172

IOU= I "EAU" you

"I owe you a fall, Sherlock. I owe you."

Eau=water
Are we talking about a waterfall? Again.

I owe you a fall, Sherlock. I owe you.

O=water
