The fact that E3 is missing scares me a bit.

Oh, this is exciting!

There is a very interesting entry on John's blog regarding The Six Thatchers. And it goes back to the times of ASiB, so the hints about going back, the plane from ASiB, the girl from ASiB, seems to make sense.

OMG!! I vaguely remember that Thatchers things from John's blog too

That's very interesting in deed... and it scares me so, so much. Is the title spoilery? Is it something we can't handle??

Oh sorry, I thought we were all posting on the same thread and have only just realised we weren't!
To reiterate what I said on the other thread: the first title makes me laugh.
The second one may appear a tad scary, but I assume it's a play on 'The dying detective'.
I'm sure there is a third episode, though a little concerning that they don't want us to know the title.

Yes, Phantom, I assume it's a spoiler issue.

My fault, I posted at the same time as Susi on the other thread. I'd just mentioned over there that "Thatcher" was one of our key words, and that "Lying" seems to be a play on "Dying". In the story, the dying detective is also lying, obviously, so maybe we are going to see something similar.

Except our Culverton Smith doesn't seem to be a doctor?

Maybe Sherlock is lying about being all right.

True. Anyway, the six Thatchers seem to be linked to the six Napoleons (as I'm sure somebody mentioned in the other thread). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Adventure_of_the_Six_Napoleons

(Are we talking spoilery here? Because I have a theory on Culverton and the doctor thing...

**Posted by Schmiezi** September 25, 2016 5:40 pm

You could hide it inside a spoiler thingy.

Like this.

Good idea. I've put my comment in spoilers. Or the other thread has "spoiler" in the title. Whatever's best! I'm interested in your ideas, Phantom.

**Posted by besleybean** September 25, 2016 5:48 pm

Though the thread is' episode titles': and if you don't want spoilers, I would presume you wouldn't visit such threads...this forum is in the S4 section of the board, after all- by nature, very spoilery!

I just read Johns blog and all I'm wondering about right now is if the knife really could have survived in the oven.

Oh that sounds like the 'One of Us' series, that's just aired on UK TV!

Can't you try it? For science ...

Hehe, I'm just about to ask my friends in the pottery forum.

**Posted by besleybean** September 25, 2016 5:55 pm

A pottery forum? That sounds fab!

**Posted by This Is The Phantom Lady** September 25, 2016 5:59 pm

I'll put it in a spoiler tag!

We've seen Culverton on posters during Setlock, haven't we? Maybe he's a TV doctor or shrink... a sort of Doctor Phil but with some sinister things going on? He seems very 'showey' from the teaser

I'm a hobby potter. So of course I'm in a pottery forum.

Yes, definitely looks like some kind of TV show judging from the poster and I agree about the teaser . It's the doctor bit that's puzzling me - "murder in the boardroom"? "Business" killer? They sound like something else. Unless, as you say, he's kind of a Dr Phil (who I'm not very familiar with), for businesses? We do know that there are medical elements in this episode, so how exactly does that connect to this version of Culverton?
