Thank you so much for your hard work, Ariane! I love reading the transcript before the new ep to make sure I haven't missed anything (and your comments are very helpful in this regard too!).

You're an absolute star, Ariane!

Ariane, you are a tresure!

Whoops, sorry, yes. I've got so many places to alert that I forgot this one. Apologies.

I am always amazed how quick you are with those. Thank you again - so very much.

Thank you for all of your hard work over the years, Ariane.

Not quite done yet, Bes!

*Ari adds another matchstick to each of her eyes*

Part 2 is with my betas, and I'm writing part 3. Sherlock is just being forced to ring Molly. *woobies*

Thank you for your hard work! It's great that you have a whole team of supporters!

Thanks to the utterly sterling work of my brilliant beta team, Parts 2 and 3 are now up. Click http://arianedevere.livejournal.com, and scroll down just below the Index to click into any of the three pages directly. Part 2 has been slightly edited today after I realised that none of us could tell the difference between snow and rain …

Part 4 (and at the rate I’m currently going, Part 5!) will hopefully go up on Saturday or Sunday.

The Final Problem is now complete. Click http://arianedevere.livejournal.com, and scroll down just below the Index to click into any of the parts directly.

If there are Extras on the DVD I'll probably transcribe them too. After all, I'm so used to not sleeping now ...

A labour of love, thank you...
My DVD arrived yesterday and there seem to be tons of extras on it, but I've not had chance to see them, yet.

Thank you again! It's very much appreciated. Even better than having a script because I love your comments, Ariane!

Transcripts of all the Special Features on the Season 4 DVD are now available: http://arianedevere.livejournal.com/

They’re listed in the Index, or scroll down just below the Index to click direct into the pages. “Behind 221B” is a single page; all the others are together in another page.

**Posted by besleybean** February 5, 2017 6:09 pm

Thank you.

Thank you, Ariane! You and your team are doing so much for this fandom.

And finally:

I was going to leave this for a few weeks because I’ll probably be tweaking the transcripts for ages yet, but decided to do it now as a sort of early Valentine gift to the few members of the fandom who still might be interested in such a thing.

So all the transcripts - from A Study in Pink (both the broadcast version and the pilot), all the way through Many Happy Returns and the Special, right the way up to and including The Final Problem - are now downloadable as Word or PDF files.

There’s a file of all the transcripts in their entirety; a file of just the speaker and spoken words in every episode; and a file giving all the words spoken by 27 individual characters listed together, e.g. every line spoken in all episodes by Mycroft, or by John, or by Mrs Hudson etc.

And for those people who have already got heavily annotated/edited earlier versions of the transcripts, there are also Season 4 only versions of the full transcripts and of the speakers and spoken words.

To access them, go to my blog at http://arianedevere.livejournal.com and click on the link at the end of the red line starting “The transcripts are downloadable.”
