I *loved* how that old war wound argument was handled with both the cane and the shoulder thing:). AND OMG WATSON HAS MY MOBILE. I may have been flailing slightly. Even that damn charger socket thing--it's hard to put the charger in even when you're frickin' sober (let alone fumbling in the dark at night, trying to find the charger), so mine has scratches around the socket as well :O

And why is Cumberbitch hotter with his hair dyed dark and when he's being Holmes? Why? He is all weird-looking IRL anyway. Having said that, it'd be hysterical if our bony-faced Eleventy got a bony-faced Master. If they snogged, you could hear the clunking from miles away.

I want the drugs to appear, too D: I will never forgive them if they completely chicken out on that one.

Also, auuuuugh. I must go to bed before tonight's episode is up. CANNOT COPE.

Ha! I'm now imagining the props guys on the show asking themselves which model of phone is the hardest to plug in the charger, and determining that it's the kind you have.

He is weird-looking as Holmes, as well as IRL, but when he's in character he's got all that Holmesness making him all sorts of hot. (The dark hair helps, too -- it's a good look on him.)

I have a feeling we'll get a Sherlock who is recovering from drug use. That sort of allows them to have it in there, while also, you know, being pre-watershed. (Does it always start pre-watershed, though? Tonight's episode does, anyway.) It will be interesting to see how they have him handle the periods between cases, though, if he's clean.

I won't be able to see the episode until tomorrow as well -- WOE. D:

It's harder to plug that thing in than it is on the ones with round sockets, I tell ya. My hands can be a bit wobbly from years of rubbish antidepressants, so it can be tricky sometimes. But this means I get to be Watson! :D

Sherlockness is often hottifying, yes:).

And him being an ex-junkie could be interesting. A Holmes who's on an off the wagon would seem pretty much in character, I think.

The microUSB socket is the one that mobile phone manufacturers have agreed to move to as a standard over the next couple of years (not all phone manufacturers of course, *cough Apple cough*) but Nokia is planning on keeping the teeny-tiny round (2mm) charger socket *as well* on most of their phones.
They argue that there's one billion Nokia chargers out there already, so it's environmentally more friendly to let people continue to use existing wall and car chargers rather than making them all useless :-)
At least that was the last press release I saw.
I'm waiting for the wireless charging stuff to be built into more phones, so you just put the phone on the "mouse mat" and it charges automatically.

My friends list is split between Cumberbatch as Master and Cumberbatch as Twelve. ... Though howabout Cumberbatch as Eleven's smarter brother? :-)

Really enjoying this show, and yes, only one more episode to go *flails sadly*, it *must* get more episodes!

They're showing this across the pond and I had to go back to see how many people on my flist have seen it too, and OMG, all of you.

Anyway, I love it. Quite a lot. It's just so much fun.
