Yeah, he kind of does. He's speaking quite quietly in some parts of the video.

New video on the Sherlock YouTube channel. It's funny.

Is it just me, or did Mark just imply that Mycroft likes men?
Also, I have no idea why someone out there thinks Mycroft's suit is baggy. He has too much money for that to happen.

Hilarious Mark Gatiss is so ------- (perfect)

Yes he did seem to imply that Mycroft likes men, but it could just be his personal opinion that Mycroft needs more men around the house

Yeah I read something about the "baggy" suit recently and thought what?? It doesn't look baggy to me.

Yes, I'm not sure it's that Mark wants more young men around the house because he'd like that or because Mycroft himself would like that.
Still, I'm sure that will fuel all the Mystrade shippers and others who already have gay Mycroft headcanons.

I think maybe the person who wrote the comment about the baggy suit might just think it looks that way because we see Sherlock's slim fitting suits on the show so much. But still, that doesn't mean Mycroft's is baggy. Mycroft cares too much about appearances to wear an ill-fitting suit. The comment did leave Mark quite distraught, though.

(Also, another I noticed since posting: Near the end Mark seems to subconsciously tense one of his pectorals repeatedly. That's a tic I've never seen before.)

I want to know what the fruit loops joke is... apparently it's not just some random thing Mark decided to say (according to a tweet from someone in the BBC)

I wasn't sure how common of a phrase it is (at least not to my knowledge over here, not sure about over there) but yeah, I've heard of it. Other than being a breakfast cereal of little round 'o's colored like the rainbow (not coincidental), I thought it was a slang phrase to refer to gays (or people acting loopy/crazy). But… he uses it in the context as though it were an object? Some kind of in-joke, repeating it four times?
His little 'ohhs' just crack me up every time, though.

Here are some ... 50 possible explanations

This is the tweet that makes me wonder what the joke is
