I have always liked the song, but Andrew makes everything special.

Such a great song and I loved Andrew in that scene! Have you seen that some people have been putting other songs to that scene, quite funny.

I was going to mention and so now I will...on the DVD extras, there is a different tune playing behind Andrew, so I'm wondering if they changed it last minute.
I Want to Break Free is perfect for the scene and for Andrew.

Oh that's interesting, what's the other song? Like you say, maybe they changed their minds during post. Whatever the reason I'm glad they went with I Want To Break Free.

I honestly can't remember...anybody else?
Incidentally, Amanda's piece isn't on the DVD either.

Yes, Moriarty would most certainly be a fan of Queen.

For me its
- The roller coaster ride action and suspense
- Seeing Sherlock, John, and Mycroft together as team
- Eurus being a chilling and psychologically complex adversary
- The sailor disguise part
- The satisfying return to 221B at the end

Good choices.

A small scene that I really really love in TFP: Sherlock's smile near the end just after he shot the smiley face and blew air onto the gunpoint (is this how you say it in English???).
I think it is a new smile that we have never seen before on Sherlock's face. (I would need to rewatch the whole series to be sure, though. )
It is a very honest, gentle and content smile combined with a tiny bit of a cheeky smirk. I get the impression that this is very much Benedict himself showing through his Sherlock performance. I love it!!!
I don't know if he did that on purpose or if it just happened, because Sherlock has developed/matured so much by the end of TFP.
What are your thoughts?

Excellent observation and I think you're right. I love the tiny subtle things. Such a small smile and yet it does help illustrate how Sherlock has grown.
