He doesn't ask for a chair- that instantly means he has a psychosomatic limp, not because he might be too prideful to ask, or that he won't be in the room for long.
He's not going to his brother for help- well, maybe his "brother" doesn't live in or near London . . .
Most impressive part was Benedict actually delivering this whopper line.
And Shirley, my phone port is scratched up. And I'm not a drunk.
@HellhoundHex Finally, he did say the phone port deduction was a shot in the dark, and considering John's problems with his brother, he decided to go with drinking.
I think doing something like that is easily possible, and yes I mean in that difficulty in that speed. People just aren't connected to those areas of their mind due to improper training and other stresses in life which in-turn stops them from analysing clearly. As he points out later in the series, he doesn't bother learning other stuff for the sheer reason of keeping the ability to concentrate on his job. Love Sherlock! <3
I discovered this show about three days ago, and so far i have watched every single episode several times and spent every waking moment watching fan videos of Sherlock clips and beautiful moments of the beautiful Benedict Cumberbatch.
@Insomiak You can't possibly know that for sure. You read the books beforehand, so you've never had experience of not knowing the storyline, however, I do agree it is good if you've read the books. Especially seeing the transition from watch to phone :D
i have never watched this series but i think i would like it. i have watched doctor who and i really like Moffats writing. can somone tell me if this series is worth watching xx
It is SSSSSSSSOOOOOOO worth watching. It's a great show with great writing. I admit, I was very skeptical about a modern-day Sherlock Holmes, but now I'm a Sherlock addict. =) Definitely watch it. (If you've read any Sherlock Holmes, then you'll like the show even more since it stays pretty close to the books.)
@angeldemusique1115 thanx! :) i just finish watcing the first episode and it was amazing, i LOVE benedict as Sherlock. i have read some of the books and i like that the charecters are so different yet very similiar as well. (its a shame that there's only three episodes in a series tho, i need more! lol xx

So I see its not just Spanish tv !!! One spanish tv channel bought the series (season 1) almost one year ago, but never broadcasted it !!. Its gonna be aired on January in 2012, so they're like ONE SEASON DELAYED.....no wonder people watch things ilegally in internet. I watched this months ago and will watch season 2 soon after its broadcasted in UK...(as soon as some good samaritan adds subtitles *lol*)
@MyPurseBilly It aired on either BBC America in October, which is obviously a big difference from the 2010 airing on BBC1 in UK. I just found out that it's airing on BBC America in May though, so I'm going to have to find some other way to watch it in January.
I LOVE THIS SHOW SOOOOOOOOOO MUCH!! what i dont love if the looooooong wait for series 2! T_T but if its as good as series one, its gonna be worth it!
@kebrose Not an exact copy, but it's scary how it shows how little people have actually changed. All the scriptwriters had to do was change the technology. They didn't even have to fake the war. How much does that say about humanity?
@7Write4This9Heart7 i think people can do that if you think about it, its not that hard, just a matter of paying attention and noticing the little things. plus he's really clever sooo...
@7Write4This9Heart7 I actually do this for a living. Im a Mentalist, and have been a Holmes fan since I was a child, obsessed, i've studied Deduction and Mentalism my entire life. Im so glad people are loving and connecting to this wonderful adaptation!
@hardtogetausername Yeah, the clip seem to be slowed down and the effect that has on Benedict Cumberbatch's voice makes him sound even more like Alan RIckman. LOL!
@marchingfluteMMVIII Considering we've stolen quite a few shows of theirs, I'm going to go out a limb and say you're wrong. Besides, I know quite a few fellow Americans that absolutely adore British programming.
@LaSeuleEtoile BBC America is the channel for America on cable and satellite where a select number of shows from BBC are shown, usually about a week behind or so than that of the shows in the UK.
WOW! he's is so smart!!!!!! WOW! My friend told me about this and she kept going on and on about so I thought: I've got to see it or she'll keep going on about it... result: WOW!

@KindlingKatalyst John's limp caused him discomfort while walking but not when he was standig up,
Sherlock pointed this out by telling him that while standing up he simply seemed to forget about his limp,
if the limp had been real he would had shown discomofrt at all times.
Your brother doesn't need to live near you for you to ask him for help, after all, banks do exist.
