Spoilers master post - S03E1

[xgraciela]

Okay, so the spoilers are flooding in every day and some of us know everything (and boy, there's a LOT of stuff right now), some of us know nothing. To make things easier I decided to make this central ongoing post.

You are welcome to come in and squee/moan/discuss - whatever you want, whenever you want. Just no direct set pictures in this post

After following setlock pretty much all day today, I was confused and even angry about some aspects of the videos... :p

Molly at the window: when I saw that photo, I always thought Mycroft was in the background. The Mycroft/Moriarty video could support this.

From the photos posted at Zimbio, I believe that Sherlock landed on the blue safety balloon thingy and the homeless network then carried it off quickly. Sherlock ran off after them and hid behind that red door.

Two people then dragged the Sherlock body double out (from the video). I don't get this part. Is this when John gets hit by the bicycle? He sees the body double on the ground first? Is this done for Moriarty rather than John/Moran?

John gets hit by bicycle and must be out for a while. The second body is moved away somehow? In the truck? Sherlock poses as dead body.

So, something was there for him to land on we did not see?

[cubbie866]

The blue safety balloon. I think it was lifted and moved away by the homeless network. Interestingly, the truck with the trash on it has blue bags of the same color

[siduri]

That makes sense, yes. The very small details.

[cubbie866]

Can I post links to photos? The zimbio set shows what I'm trying to say.

[xgraciela]

Please, no photos here, you can PM siduri. It's Leda's comm and she wishes no pics. Thanks!

[cubbie866]

I'll delete the other post then? It's a link to zimbio like siduri's to the daily mail?

[xgraciela]

You can leave the links, but please let's try to minimize this, and no direct photos.

But I think the blue mat was there just for Benedict when they filmed the last bit of fall from the ladder. I don't think that huge thing is part of the scheme. No. The sniper would notice such big thing!!

[cubbie866]

I thought the sniper was trained on John so he might not have seen what was going on either?

Please delete the links if they are inappropriate. I can't explain well without.

The photo of the homeless network moving the blue safety balloon.

notice that there are people in costume running on set. It's part of the actual filming. If it wasn't part of the filming, they balloon would have been moved out and those actors would have moved into position later.

Good idea with the sniper. I wonder where exactly he was and what could he see.

I've seen these pics and and I still don't know what to think about them. Surely Sherlock didn't use this huuuuuge blue thing to land and to trick everyone? It would be just too obvious and visible.

I'm stil leaning towards the theory that is has just served for the filming and they were dragging it out for the sake of continuous shot maybe? Dunno.

[cubbie866]

I just can't see how he would land in the truck. The photos clearly show the truck was on the street and that sidewalk is wide.

I am definitely confused about bits of this and the blue mat is part of it. Also, I really hope the Moriarty/Mycroft scene is earlier. Moriarty needs to stay dead.

[xgraciela]

Yeah, I don't see the truck as real theory as well, but there's nothing else so far.

If it ends up being the blue mat, I may die laughing :P

Moriarty needs to be dead, burned, burried, and rotten a few feet underground. Yes.

[cubbie866]

The blue mat does sound silly, but I can't see any other reasonable theory with what has been shown so far.

I love your thinking about Mycroft!
