Sherlock - BBC

Amazingly (for me) I enjoyed this. A mix of Moffatt and other guys writing works great and the acting is good. Although there are one or two moments when Freeman does his doleful loook to camera that was such a feature of The Office- he does it in everything I have seen him in, Sherlock was the first time I thought it was properly under control- hope he doesn't do it TH.

Moffat and Gatiss said they felt that Sherlock tv and films had become so caught up in the nostalgia of the era; foggy streets, hansom cabs, street urchins etc that it had lost the thing that made it so appealing to audiences at the time- which was the releationship between Watson and Holmes which is the heart of the thing. It was the drvinig force behind their reboot, maintaining and putting the focus back onto that releationship.

I have sympathy for you Mrs Figg, really I do, this is exactly the same team, writers, directors etc who are making current Who and it saddens me you are in the minority who don't like it- I for one think Moffats Who when its at its best is easily the equal to Sherlock- difference is there are 14 episodes in a series of Who and 3 in Sherlock. And if I am completely honest I found the second episode in both seires of Sherlock to be a bit weak *although thats weak by Moffats standards not normal TV standards- the worst episodes of his Who (Pirates one, or the daleks episode) and Sherlock are still far better than 99% of tv but when the bar is set so high you notice the weak ones more I think.
