Sherlock

Great episode, love getting wrapped up in a story enjoying unfold and a great BAZINGA at the end.

Brilliant
 
That episode was only saved from being as bad as the first because of Cumberbatch and Freeman, who were both magnificent, and the ending.

The story was absolute garbage and it had pretty much started and finished within the first 5 minutes.

Don't expect much from the final episode but the quality of the writing has absolutely plummeted since season 2 so I won't be sad to see it go. Moffat strikes again.

Toby Jones' acting was pretty top notch - spoilt only by the poor writing. I'm a bit bored with the drug induced, dream, etc. sequences of the show though and little of it felt clever the writing just felt like they'd contrived it in after the fact and there is nothing clever about that.
 
Bugger, completely forgot about him! I can only remember him from Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy but he had managed to convince me he was a right wrongun all the way through the episode with his performance.

Forgot to add, WTF was going on with Mrs Hudson driving a car like a lunatic? That was so cringe worthy it was comical.

got Wierder each Episode, I changed channels half way though tonight programme, couldnt watch any more of this rubbish, the earlier series were a lot better
 
I do kind of wish they'd just modernised the source material, or possibly been a bit more like Elementary and just done its own thing. Sometimes I think they have tried too hard to be clever and mix and match the original source into a narrative that didn't quite work.

The Brett Holmes was fantastic so I do kind of understand why they had to do something different.

Overall I'd rate the episode above the first of the three but below the second. The issue of rushing the storylines in this one and the first are a problem, still good entertainment.
 
His Last Bow, on the eve of WW1

"There's an east wind coming, Watson."
"I think not, Holmes. It is very warm."
"Good old Watson! You are the one fixed point in a changing age. There's an east wind coming all the same, such a wind as never blew on England yet. It will be cold and bitter, Watson, and a good many of us may wither before its blast. But it's God's own wind none the less, and a cleaner, better, stronger land will lie in the sunshine when the storm has cleared."
