Sherlock was brilliant. Why has nobody thought of doing that with text messages before? Inspired. I love how the set at 221B Baker Street looks like a thirties refit of the set from the Granada series.

Only false note for me (and it was a very slight false note, barely a semi-tone) was the too-whimsical Mycroft, who seemed to have stepped out of an episode of The Avengers. But otherwise - yes, more of that, thank you very much. I request that telly be like this more of the time, otherwise I'll have to go back to my West Wing uber-mega-marathon.

Upon which subject: Jed Bartlet is such an arse.

Yes, it was great fun. Sherlock Holmes reminded me rather of the 11th Doctor, with his manic enthusiasm and his odd take on things. I suppose that with Steven Moffat involved, that's not surprising. The same goes for the wittiness of the script.

Yes, it was really Whovian! There were a couple of speech patterns I caught as well, just like the 11th Doctor.
