What the hell!

[MsrSiris]

There was a tall man from Cornwall

Whose length exceeded his bed.

"My body fits on it

But barely upon it

There's no room for my big Cornish head

[indielovesunicorns]

This is my everyday.

[thecloakedschemer1]

i would do the same if i were him .....if only i had a gun i get bored VERY easily

[X3r0L4dy]

I love how John says, "ah shame..."

[xiluvtwilightx]

Oh gosh, the way he mumbles "Bored..." and then yells it and proceeds to say it repeatedly.

Sherlock is the perfect mix between a genius man and a ten-year-old child.

[Sesshomaru092]

I have to ask. Does the smiley face on the wall remind anyone else of Red John from the Mentalist? Or is it just me?

[TheChocomuffinism]

@Sesshomaru092 No, it reminded me too!

[Sesshomaru092]

@TheChocomuffinism I'm glad I'm not the only one. Now I gotta ask... Do you think Patrick Jane and Sherlock would get along or annoy each other? Or a bit of both?

[TheChocomuffinism]

@Sesshomaru092 A bit of both xD

I'm sure they would both have those clever moments where they finished each other's sentences, and then those moments where they would just fight about how clever eachother are xD

[Sesshomaru092]

@TheChocomuffinism I'd love to see Patricks reaction to Sherlock's methods and Sherlock's reaction to Patrick's methods. Both are so different but work just as well as the other.

[TheChocomuffinism]

@Sesshomaru092 Me too xD

I would love to have a cross over so much, I would laugh so hard

[Sesshomaru092]

@TheChocomuffinism I can imagine Sherlock getting annoyed that methods other than his own work just as well, and I can imagine Patrick getting pissed at Sherlock for him being all "I love serial killers. There's always something to look forward to." with the Red John case.

It would also be fun to see Lisbon's reaction to Sherlock being Sherlock, and Watson's reaction to Patrick being Patrick.

In other words... They really need to have a crossover.

[DreamingUPReality]

Damn, I feel sorry for his neighbours...

[xoxoNightmareoxox]

My God, his face when he says 'Bored' the second time. I want me some Cumberlovin'.

[Rimmonin]

Can't believe it took me like more than ten times to notice he's actually shooting a smiley face on the wall!!

[thepunkgirlwtheface]

The wall had it coming...

[awesomeladyluck]

wish i could do this when im bored

[SilverWolfFullMoon]

Waits for John to get home before he starts shooting up the wall. Very clever way to get attention xD

[nixxycoolio]

"The wall had it coming."

XD

classic.

[chopinesprit]

el suspiro del min. 0:11 es muy excitante...

[MsBooda77]

There is a T-Shirt on Cafe Press with a happy face on it with gun shots and the words..."The Wall had it coming" I'm going to order it,,,,,too funny!!

[Feanorielle]

It looks like Sherlock was waiting to hear John has arrived, and only then shot the wall. He wasn't shooting for the sake of shooting, but to get attention.

[scjb045]

"ohh the wall had it coming..." LOL

[slightlyinsaneFTW]

That smiley face is still there is series 2. It made me smile all the way through ep 1. Can't wait for ep 2 tomorrow!

[Jeowyn]

Something I've missed up until now- John charging up the stairs and into the room, unarmed, when for all he knows Sherlock's being shot at. I mean, he probably suspects that Sherlock's in there dicking around with dangerous firearms, but couldn't have known for sure. Damn.

[HDLexicon]

"Oh shame" (Cos if it weren't we would have a bloody intact wall)

I love watching these :D

[TheLastRainShadow]

Wall apparently created three accounts.

[ScienceOfDeduction1]

i love how he flops down on the couch...lol

[mid0ree]

does anyone know what the actual point was with opening the episode with the belarus scene?

[stateofcolour]

@mid0ree To show how Sherlock has a thirst for all things unpredictable and that it leads him to be impulsive about some things, but mainly to highlight his biggest weakness, which is revealed at the end of the episode.

[PartTimeWatch]

@stateofcolour ...that he likes to impersonate Alan Rickman? No, I still don't get it :S

[sunnyhoney1232]

@PartTimeWatch HE sounds like Alan Rickman!!!

[PartTimeWatch]

@sunnyhoney1232 Well, yes, he kind of does, but was there a point, a message, behind the reason why Benedict sounds like Alan Rickman in the beginning of the episode, in Belarus?

[MsBooda77]

@PartTimeWatch Well...he does a really bitchin' impression of Rickman...kinda spooky....there are some videos here on You Tube of him doing it.......

[koektoful]

"the wall had it coming" lol

[atlantiswolf]

Bored.

[Isabella1497]

I LOVE his look @ 0:23 !!!!!!!!!!! BORED!

[Jeowyn]

When he did things like this in the books, it was a lot less illegal, lol. Also, you gotta love his understanding and compassion, shooting guns off with no warning when he shares a flat with a war veteran with PTSD. Nice one ;)

[Lisnotforloser]

i like that he hands the gun to john like a child in trouble haha

[MyLillteFallenAngel]

BORED! So you take it out on your teacher? My teacher had it coming! XD EPICNESS!!! 

[colleenboye]

One person lives at 221A Baker Street.

[SolrSurfr3]

@colleenboye

XD

[meekalani]

He's a pretty good shot.

[sherry56]

Every time I was this I was wonder why there was a happy face on the wall to begin with....

[Kyuuketsuki8Neko]

@sherry56 because it's awsome ^^

[SolrSurfr3]

@sherry56

I know, right? It just doesn't seem like Sherlock's style to draw a smiley face. XD

[MegaAlexiiiii]

You can shoot it, the smiley will still smile anyway! Personnally, when I am annoyed I prefer break dishes. It seems immature, but I feel better after. However, most of the time I am very mature.

[MegaAlexiiiii]

[lucy0794]

even his toes are adorable! 0:44

[veritas0290]

Such a little drama queen.

[yokoraitashi]

O.O

I... NEED A GUN!

[Frozone470]

If you watch the actual episode, right before the explosion, he smiles back at the wall, as if mocking it XDD

[JennyHRO1987]

"the wall had it coming"... well of course. look at the smiley. he provokes Sherlock xD

[quotecat7]

all right, but- hell look at this damned smiley! That way it's staring at him! It was asking for it! XD

[KitchenKiller95]

he exactly fits on the couch XD

[lovepercyana]

bored!!!

[Sapire12]

the wall had it coming.....

[mkellars]

Was that Tumblr open on his computer? o.o

[NerrissCullen]

Miss Hudson: what have you done to my bloody wall?!?!

[burningrosegirl98]

I really wish they would have more episodes in the season. It is amazing and I can't get enough of this series!

[jenkecool]

HaHaHa "Ah the wall had it coming..."

[Rackou87]

Yeah Sherlock. That wall TOTALLY had it coming...

[ProfessorPuffin]

These series are amazing, I really wish they are planning to make more

[thefinewino]

@ProfessorPuffin They are, but they won't be released until 2012 :(

[KLProductiongermany]

@ProfessorPuffin they are!

[Hanna9469]

Bored

[73Stargazer]

my mom watched this, and because i am constantly bored, said casually, im glad you don't own a gun...

[mhultraa]

If sherlock saw this... he'd notice that "1 dislikes" isn't correct grammar.

[Tryllly]

ok, now, how can he center the eyes of the smiley if he doesn't even look at the wall... O.O

[WSpokaW]

I want a gun... please?

[quotecat7]

and just the way John's there immidiantly to take his gun....

[bloodredorion]

BORED!

[magicgirl192]

The wall had it coming.

[Alizastack]

he's pmsing!! :)

[WeAreAirborne]

He's so sulky in this scene. He really DOES want John to pay attention to him. The gun, the attitude ("Did you like it?" - "Umm NO."), and of course the flopping dramatically on the couch like "LOOK AT ME, I'M POUTING."

Benedict Cumberbatch is ADORABLE.

[Mousegirl1122]

My mother and sister always say that this Sherlock acts like a bored teenager...

[boyinthestipedpyjama]

@Mousegirl1122 I am actually a bored teenager, but I don't shoot the wall when I am bored XD

[thesecretstar1]

@Mousegirl1122 That explains why me and him have similarities! 

[TweekleDee]

Was he bored? I can't be sure.

[miceruletheworld42]

@AuroraVampireGirl It was staring at him funny...

[tallperson605]

I guess someone's watched too many James Bond movies ;)

[MissARoss95]

Anyone else love the way he flops down onto the sofa?

[liongirlfc]

So if have nothing to do you get to shoot walls? My mom would kill me LOL.

[MikeAM78]

Is this a reference to one of Doyle's stories? I remember an episode of the Jeremy Brett series where Watson comes in, Holmes is quietly working on an experiment, and Watson notices a series of bullet holes in one of the walls.

[PsychicOtaku182]

@MikeAM78 Yes actually, except in the books he shoots VR into the wall. It stands for Victoria Regina, Latin for Queen Victoria. It's on a statue of her as well, except there its Victoria Regina et Imperatix: Victoria, Queen and Empress.

[KLProductiongermany]

@MikeAM78 Holmes shot V.R. into the wall.

[sarahkinzz]

I love how animated he gets after the first "bored", just LEAPS up and starts shooting.

[honeybee34343]

I should try that next time im bored.....looks...fun :D

[babymoondancer]

SHERLOCK BORED!! Kinda sounds like Hulk Speak!

[FantasmaLuna]

If that's what Sherlock does when he's bored, I'd hate to see him occupi-oh!

[MrSherlockholmes02]

bored...I love the way he says it

[HERMIONExCANTxDRAW]

It's funny, I did almost exactly the same thing to my wall yesterday...

... with my nerf rifle.

[LonelyMarshmallow]

He probably saw John's relationship status on his facebook wall change to 'In a relationship' hence why he had to kill the wall

[InfernalShadowMind]

Of course! I always shoot walls when I'm bored!

[ScaredHare]

1 person lives at 221 A Baker Street. ;)

[liongirlfc]

@ScaredHare Watson.

[sherlockfan16]

@ScaredHare

Mrs Hudson?

[SolrSurfr3]

Note he only starts shooting at the wall after John enters the building. I'm starting to think he's just doing that to get attention. XD

[deliriousweare]

@SolrSurfr3 the same in ma mind.....of course he did! POSER!

[melloluvsme]

@SolrSurfr3 of course he wants attention...he is bloody Sherlock Holmes lol

[anancybrown]

@SolrSurfr3 to be fair, in the actual episode, he does shoot at the wall a bit before John comes into the building, too :P

[offmyfaceonsmack]

@SolrSurfr3 sorry. no he doesnt. there are two gunshots heard before hand. .. sorry... sherlock nerd.

[SolrSurfr3]

@offmyfaceonsmack

lol, no apology required. I'm just wondering how I missed that. XD

[aquagrl63]

Anyone else think that he should play the Master on Doctor Who?

[NimmerNammer]

@aquagrl63 Up against Andrew-Lee Potts as the 12th Doctor would make my day ^^

[timelordstudios100]

@aquagrl63 I agree or better still The Doctor!

[IzDiaries]

@timelordstudios100 Cumberbatch doesn't want to be the Doctor. He said so himself.

[timelordstudios100]

@IzDiaries I know but I was stating he should play the Doctor, not he will be the Doctor.

[BrittBrann]

Ok. This is so what I'm doing the next time I get bored. haha.

[SolrSurfr3]

Bored: The most common cause of destruction of property.

Lol, Sherlock's like a little kid sometimes.

[Cumberbitch]

The one dislike was the wall..........o_O

[Pollypo66]

BORED!!! D:<

[IzDiaries]

Maybe Lestrade should let Sherlock use the police shooting range next time...

[SolrSurfr3]

@IzDiaries

Where's the fun in that?

[IzDiaries]

@SolrSurfr3 It'd save Mrs. Hudson and Watson from having a heart attack every time Sherlock decides he's bored. Maybe they should get the guy a Rubik's cube or a deck of playing cards...

[MrSherlockholmes02]

@IzDiaries He can get the Rubik's cube done in about 5 or 10 minutes

[IzDiaries]

@MrSherlockholmes02 Maybe Sudoku or one of those jigsaw puzzles where the pieces all look the same. Or maybe set him a nice filthy murder so that he isn't bored anymore.

[liongirlfc]

@IzDiaries Nah Sherlock slove the rubiks cube in seconds and get board with the cards.

[SandraTheMuffin]

I don't know why, but Sherlock's feet makes me giggle.

[saludigby]

This video cheers me up when *I* am bored!

[LonelyMarshmallow]

Am I the only one who thought, why on earth Sherlock decided to paint a smiley face on the wall?- *snaps fingers* it must of been the skull!

[KLProductiongermany]

@LonelyMarshmallow The paint was left over from the last case and when people write s.t. down with no reason its 'hello' or a smiley. So, he just followd his instincts^^

[brittianica]

Ah, shame xD

[AvatarYoda]

I wish I could shoot the wall every time I got bored.

[aquagrl63]

Well at least he isn't shooting cocaine.

[aquagrl63]

And Watson is supposed to be the one who needs therapy?

[changingowl10]

@aquagrl63

This is therapy. It's called "Sherlock Therapy." XDDD

[zacandsabby]

so my friend and i were watching this episode for the first time during class on her laptop (we were supposed to be working) and we didnt know he was gonna start shooting. so wen he did, it was really loud and we both screamed. LOL. so then our teacher came over to see wut we were doing and she saw sherlock and was like "YOU WATCH IT TOO?" we then proceeded to have an in depth conversation about this show. LOOOOL. my teacher is amazing. ahaha

[mizsherlockholmes]

@zacandsabby oh ur so lucky to have a school that will a low you on google, if we are even catched on it were in like, princpal type troble.

[zacandsabby]

@mizsherlockholmes we're allowed on google. but i was watching the dvd on my laptop wen i shud have been doing my work..LOOOL

[kavtoM]

why is there a smiley to begin with???

[uminatsuko]

@kavtoM In the books, he would shoot the wall to form "VR" (Victoria Regina) with the bullets. Mark Gatiss updated it to a smiley face.

[jimbopumbapigsticks]

@uminatsuko Should have updated it to "ER", although maybe this version of Holmes isn't a monarchist.

[XxCarlieCullenxX]

@jimbopumbapigsticks And people might think- "The sociopath watches ER??"

[xAlicexxx]

Always thought he said 'the wall men are coming' haha :')

[VideoFan0112]

notice he didnt start shooting the wall till watson came

[mixu200]

@VideoFan0112 i noticed yeah when i saw the show XD

[BatTitan]

@VideoFan0112 "Pay attention to me, John, I'm sulking! Look, I'll shoot the wall to prove it! :P" Oh, Sherlock, such an attention-seeker.

[wolvesruleohyay]

The smiley on the wall is actually a coded message from the ciminal in The Blind Banker...it means shoot the wall

[GlassCtiy]

my question is what did the wall ever do to u?

[arinaaatje]

@GlassCtiy it was laughing at him because he was bored :P That's my theory

[kimroxmysox]

Those two are the most adorable couple, I have ever seen.

[ronvins]

That'll teach you to bang on the walls

[bigbagpussfan]

is it really bad that i ALWAYS drop onto the sofa like that now...

[najhoant]

This is why we have Call of Duty

[Exayevie]

Loooooooooooooooooooved this scene

[weirdlightsaber44]

Does anyone know when Sherlock is coming back?

[57susanita]

@weirdlightsaber44 apparently the next fall

[TheBurbster]

"Ah, the wall had it coming..." *flops on couch*

Ah, Sherlock, never change. I wanna shnuggle Benny and Martin SOOOO bad...

[MexxsNieschenwesenCA]

what does he say at 0:30-35? I´m not a native english speaker, I can´t understand it o.ô

But, this is so funny! :D "the wall had it coming!"

[jlennon510]

@MexxsNieschenwesenCA

"I don't know what's gotten into the criminal classes. Good job I'm not one of them." That's what it sounds like to me. It's practically lifetd from the beginning of the story "The Bruce Partington Plans" which this episode draws a lot from along with "The Naval Treaty" and "The Five Orange Pips"

[maggie14411331]

Great performance~ Even his wiggling toes were saying "bored"~~

[animagigirl]

OH MY GOD ITS RED JOHNS MARK!

uhhhh.... u know from the mentalist.....?

[gamgee87]

@animagigirl THAT IS TOTALLY WHAT I THOUGHT!

:-D

[melodysymphonystar]

@animagigirl I'm not the only one thinking that! Hurray!

Who knows, they could make a crossover between Sherlock and Mentalist... I totally imagine Patrick Jane waltzing in here and accusing Sherlock or John to be Red John. That would be downright hilarious, i think

[DuchessAliana]

@animagigirl OMG I thought I was the only one who thought that O_O

[hummingbees]

This makes me wish I had a gun when I was bored so I could do the same exact thing.

[manicmeringue]

think how that poor wall feels, Sherlock how could you shoot him!

[speedykat123]

BORED!!! BORED!!! i think we've all been as bored as him at some point... i know i have!

[Silverdragon5862]

the only thing that I did not enjoy about this series was how short it was. If only they would have done more episodes.

[MrSherlockWatson]

@AuroraVampireGirl Of course it did...It has a hideous pattern and he never does anything but sit around and look bad

[y8y82k]

even the way he wiggles his toes, so adorable!! xxx

[doctorwhogirl77]

"What the HELL are you doing?!"

"...bored"

"What?"

"BORED."

[StagePrincess3]

The wall had it coming......

[DeanPants]

I'm noticing that he IS practicing shooting after he so widely missed shooting the Golem in the episode before. Hmmmm. And now he's precise enough to hit a smiley face so clearly someone was bothered by that, eh, Sherlock?
