Cinnamon Posted July 26, 2010 Share Posted July 26, 2010 I really enjoyed the first episode of this last night - how wonderful to have some good Sunday night viewing again! I thought the guy playing Sherlock was really good - he has the same 'creepy but still hot' thing going on as Matt Smith The story was great & I loved the way they modernised it all - bodes well,I think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickencam Posted July 26, 2010 Share Posted July 26, 2010 We really enjoyed it too, it was very well done. We were unsure about whether or not to bother with it, but I though that Martin Freeman can afford to be quite picky about his roles these days, so he must have thought that it was worth it. Next week they said that it will be on at 8.30 which unless they have moved Top Gear it will clash which is annoying, but it must have been good because DS said that he would rather watch Sherlock Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LisaP Posted July 26, 2010 Share Posted July 26, 2010 Watched it with DD and we both enjoyed it too. A little sceptical before viewing but were pleasantly surprised and looking forward to the next episode Lisa P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jennifer Jane Posted July 26, 2010 Share Posted July 26, 2010 I loved it too. I really like Benedict Cumberbatch (sp???), so that made me watch it. I think he was mentioned as a possible Dr Who and also I think the series is written by people connected with Dr Who - somebody may be able to confirm that - which might explain the similarities in character between the two leads. And he's certainly got a recognisable face. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluekarin Posted July 26, 2010 Share Posted July 26, 2010 I didn't watch this as I didn't like the lead chap, but after reading all your comments, I shall give it a go Would be wonderful to watch something decent on a Sunday night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LuckyChickenLover- Posted July 26, 2010 Share Posted July 26, 2010 Umm... I think I'm a bit OCD over it now. I'm watching it for the 4th time Only 5 Days, 23 hours and 45 minutes until the next episode Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheilaz Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 Loving it. Best thing on TV for ages. Totally agree with all the comments so far. LSH & I were very sceptical beforehand and had expected to turn off after 10 minutes, not wishing to have our love of the books, and previous Sherlock images, spoilt. I didn't think I'd want to watch Benedict Cumberbatch. However, the 2 leads had us both won over immediately, and the writing and direction were superb. Brilliant, just my cup of tea.

Mercedes55 Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 I thought it was brilliant too and it definitely had that 'Dr Who' feel about it, but then it is written by the same guy who now writes Dr Who, so I guess that shouldn't have come as a surprise. Really looking forward to the next 2 episodes and hope they do another series of it as 3 episodes really isn't enough Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

debbier Posted July 31, 2010 Share Posted July 31, 2010 I enjoyed it, however, one thing annoyed me... don't scroll down if you haven't seen it yet! What was the "puzzle" with the pill picking? I was imagining various explanations and it annoyed me that it wasn't explained. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jlo Posted August 1, 2010 Share Posted August 1, 2010 Having woken up far too early on Sunday morning and mooched around the forum, I thought that I would give this a go. Really enjoyed it - thanks for posting about it. Looking forward to tonight's episode now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What was the "puzzle" with the pill picking? I was imagining various explanations and it annoyed me that it wasn't explained. Also, at the beginning, all of the 'suicide' victims had bottles containing 3 pills, not one, and they all seemed to be alone. If they were alone then how did the cab driver force them to take the pills? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
