My dad just called because he knew I was watching it. I told him about the preview and must have sounded so crazy!

Yes. My story. My dad was just like "A preview? So what?"

Yes, I'm allowing myself a glass of sparkling wine.

I think we all made sounds that were definitely not human!

Just thinking... how are we going to react when The Empty Hearse is finally airing?
I'm seriously concerned.

Sherlockology will probably crash again, and maybe this place as well!

It was so hard not to!!! I screamed, made dying walrus noises and bounced up and down like a nutter!

England will fall.

Sherlockology said it is not actual footage from Series 3, so we don't know anything yet. It is just a promotional trailer of Red Bee Media. I must confess that I expected a bit more than that. At least one tiny scene from the actual series 3.
Sherlockology blew it up out of proportion with this countdown for 5 days if you ask me.
But then we must take whatever we get.

Ha, that was fun - and really clever. As somebody here already pointed out, no actual footage from S3, according to Sherlockology. So we really know everything and nothing - but that was to be expected, wasn't it?

And John's moustache really is... well. Interesting. I've seen a pic somewhere of him wearing that... thing in his face. Makes him ten years older, don't you think?

Oh my....

edit: Be was quicker!

I think we can assume the whole fandom squealed at the same time!

I agree a little but also, think of it this way: Sherlock loves to be dramatic, Sherlockology made a dramatic countdown and there was a very dramatic teaser trailer that gave nothing away but a boatload of drama and squeals! It's fitting in a way, don't ya think? But I do get what you're saying

No air.
Can't breathe.
Where's the smelling salts?
Where's my mattress?
Where the hell did my knickers go?!?!

*EPIC THUD*

The game has been on for far too long now, if you ask me. But okay, let's continue to be patient.

edit: Ha, now that is great timing, with this post I stepped up to "The Game is on". Brilliant!

Sorry to sour all the excitement, but I feel betrayed, angry and disappointed. It's like someone brought me a giant present with only some flimsy paper in it.
*sulks*

Awwwwwww. Cup of tea, dear?
