Sherlock Review

Part 3: His Last Vow


First we had to figure out how Sherlock did it and now we have another good few years to figure out how Moriarty can be back from the dead or whatever this ending means!

I was thrilled to finally see the scene I watched being filmed. On that amazing #Setlock day it was incredibly hot and sunny. Interestingly, it looks so much darker and colder in the episode. Benedict and Martin must have been so hot in their coats.(Well, they're hot anyway! Sorry! ;-P) And we also get to see the inside of the restaurant in Cardiff in His Last Vow, which I also visited in the summer. (unfortunately not on a Setlock day though)

Part 2: The Sign of Three


First of all, Sherlock totally made up for all the assholeness in the first episode! He even confessed what an arsehole he is! This was the cutest episode ever!

The best man speech: just priceless! Sherlock makes you hate him so much at first and then he says such sweet things and you love him all the more after that. Seriously! How is that even possible?! And I have to admit, I shed a few tears at the probably most awkward but also brilliant best man speech ever. His wonder at all the crying was simply adorable and funny. And that's how quickly I forgot my resolution from the first episode to never let Sherlock move me to tears again. Your favourite sociopath: Knows how to play people since 2010!

Sherlock review

Part 1: The Empty Hearse


Our favourite sociopath is back!

The reunion scene was brilliant and intense - just as I expected. Every kind of emotion you can think of, any thought, was racing through my mind. After waiting over 2 years for this moment, I sat on my bed hugging my pillow, anticipation about to kill me. Then, a feeling of awkwardness when Sherlock failed to get John's attention. (But it was funny at the same time. xD) When John finally realised who was interrupting his marriage proposal, I literally almost died of holding my breath. And I just loved it when John tried to punch Sherlock. You're right there, John! Go on! He has to suffer for what he's done to you! - Sorry I got a bit carried away there! xDD

The life of a zombie



Warning: Might contain mild exaggerations due to a semester of writing a BA paper for which I was extremely limited in choosing a topic and reversed culture shock. So, ye be warned of the drama in this post! ;-)

Rays of sunlight stroke the corpse's cold cheeks, as he sleeps the slumber of the dead. The alarm clock rings. With a groan the zombie comes to life and silences the alarm. An imprint in the shape of a rectangle across the creature's face still marks the spot where it fell asleep on a book before dragging itself to bed. Its head falls back onto the pillow as the realization creeps into the zombie's mind: It's another one of those days!
