Thank you so much for the transcript. That way I can secretly catch up while being in class. ;-)

You're welcome, Schmiezi.

The video has been pulled

Which is strange. As is the fact that they promote this in the US and nowhere else, not even in the UK. Amanda even tweeted the YT link. And now it has disappeared. Why this focus on the US? I do not get it.

YESSS!

It's just not fair! Why should there be a select few that get to see this stuff? There are loyal fans all over the world, not just in the major cities of America. I'm glad I got to see it, but I wish I'd downloaded it permanently for myself now.

YESSS!

My very first thought on reading that!

Usual British US-centrism, I guess. US is English speaking and has the most vocal fans, so it´s the only coutry that "matters" so it seems.

Anyway, if this video has been pulled that doesn´t mean the new video won´t emerge somewhere else.

What did they expect though??

**Posted by nakahara** December 8, 2016 12:38 pm

And there are gifs, of course.

It already has!

But someone has tweeted it at AA, so I wouldn't be surprised if it gets pulled again (someone at BBC probably reads her tweets)

Awesome! Thanks for the links to the gifs and the new upload! I'm downloading the video now. Just in case.

God I love this fandom. Not need for me to report on my screening last night. The preview was up and tumblr was exploding by the time I got home!!

You could tell Mark was "definitely enjoying" trolling us in the preview. Handing out his little tid bits to taunt us. There were some interesting behind the scenes footage from filming. And more distractions with baby Watson. I honestly believe they are trying to distract the casuals with the baby stuff.

**Posted by SusiGo** December 8, 2016 2:39 pm

Hope you had a great evening.

Yes, the baby. So we are getting a birth, a christening, a baby shower, a baby outing with dog, what a fluffy episode this is going to be. *sarcasm off*

**Posted by This Is The Phantom Lady** December 8, 2016 2:45 pm

Sure we are...

**Posted by Vhanja** December 8, 2016 3:01 pm

Thanks for the link! Aw, look how Mark is enjoying himself!

Why, though, do every new bit of information about S4 just leave me feeling an impending sense of dread...?

Because that's the way the creators want us to feel!

Mark's taking about "a new team at Baker Street " meaning the happy threesome with baby and maybe even a dog leaves me with a deep er feeling of dread than all the talking about terrible things does. It sounds too much like Mary will be completely forgiven.

But no matter how they will deal with Mary, it surely won't be for long anyway.

Well Mark did say something terrible would happen at the end of ep1 so I figure whatever family bliss there's going to be (if any) will be there just to soften us up a bit for a cruel cliffhanger.

I never wished so hard for a cruel cliffhanger. ;-)

Mark also said that a "125 year old spoiler" would be reveled. Many speculate that this is referring to Mary's death.
