In this episode: We hear from fans who were at North Gower Street for #setlock on August 21st and discuss the past week’s spoilers for Sherlock series 3. (SPOILERS below, obviously.)
Art by Fox Estacado
This Week’s Top Ten:
2. Casting:
–> Butler for Magnussen: [3] (we recall canon)[4]
3. Gower Street [5]
–> scene 1 John and Sherlock leave 221B – Sherlock tells John to bring gun – John doesn’t know why he should – Sherlock takes off in cab – John walks away from 221B [6][7]
–> scene 2 John and Sherlock arrive in cab at 221B – Sherlock in Hobolock-look[8] – door knocker straight – Sherlock complains about OCD and “he doesn’t even know he is doing it” (Mycroft?)[9]
–> scene 3 four men in suits leave 221B Baker Street – three security guys, one “villain-y” looking guy, but not Magnussen – security guards positioned around car – 4th guy gets in – drive off [10], [11], [12]
–> scene 4 not 221B but still Gower Street – Anderson and Mary (????)
4. Leinster Gardens // Moscow Road
–> scene 2 Sherlock and John Sherlock walks past café John is sitting in – stops and looks at him – they look at each other – no dialogue (mind palace?)[17][18], [19],[20], [21], [22], [23],
5. 9 Stoney Lane – St. Botolph Building – doors to offic building say “CAM” on glass doors (Charles Augustus Magnussen?)[24] pics via extra from that night [25]
–> scene 1 Sherlock and John (with ring [26]) going up the escalator
–> scene 2 (not visible) security guards having to pick up someone –> freeze frame, green screens (we think: Sherlock deducing Sherlock as double was on set as well) (extras info: [27], freeze frame requires dance education as freezing from running was required [28], [29], [30])
–> scene 3 Sherlock and John get into elevator (pre-scene to Heron Tower (?))
6. Heron Tower [31]
–> scene 2 Sherlock and John in elevator – from 0-32 floor (again and again) – either long deduction or awkward silence [33]
–> extras saw tall woman leaving Tower, guarded with umbrellas, in dress, long dark wavy hair –> Yasmin Akram?[34], [35], [36]
–> scene 3 Sherlock and John doubles were driven away to do additional scenes in London [38][39] – Ambulance [40] – Sherlock getting shot/injured? (remember his hospital get-up)
7. Cab scene London
8. Sherlock in January 2014 then? [45][46][47]
9. Afghanistan flashback? [48] but: [49]
10. Timeline reconstruction. Does Series 3 in fact span a full year?

In this episode: We discuss the past week’s spoilers for Sherlock series 3.
Art by Fox Estacado
This Week’s Top Ten:
1. Casting additions: Jake Xu as hospital staff. [1] Jamie Jarvis as surgeon.[2] And we learned that Lyndsay Duncan is Lady Smallwood.[3]
2. Sherlock seen in pajamas on Friday and bathrobe outside optometry building in Cardiff. [4] Does this suggest he’s in the hospital. Amanda also around, but in what capacity? [5]
3. Then we came to Cardiff on Saturday. Ambulance at LOC [6]and minibuses spotted at base, six or seven people wearing scrubs were seen inside, and Jake Xu apparently bought a suit for the part but was put into scrubs.[7][8][9][10]. Two scenes filmed, one upstairs not visible from outside and one downstairs – visible.
4. Molly was present in her lab coat suggesting this might be St. Barts and later on came out to say hello to the setlockers.[11]
5. Rehearsal and actual filming seen for Lestrade and John. Lestrade on phone asking for “His usual hangouts” naming two places. John in cardigan briefly during really bad weather, suggests there’s a reason for him being in that building.[12]
6. Sunday scene 1, Lestrade on phone walking into shop, stops in front of door distracted by something he sees in the paper. No idea what he sees. Mark directed.[13]
7. Sunday scene 2, Amanda, Martin, Benedict and Tom Brook (the one who let John into the abandoned building). Sherlock in homeless get-up, Amanda in pajamas driving the car. John and Sherlock having it out on the stairs after Sherlock punches out the wooden board covering the doors, jumps down stairs, get into car, confronted by Tom Brook guy, take him into the car, and drive off. Unknown fifth person in back seat with Sherlock sandwiched in-between. [14] [15] [16][17]
8. Sunday scene 3, at the university. Suggested that it was going to be a court scene set in Austria or Germany with the verdict not guilty. Minibuses with extras spotted. Lots of suit-type costumes.
9. Also spotted, special crew van and Benedict’s body double in full on costume with hair twisted and diffused, suit, and crisp white dress shirt.
10. And finally, because we love her so much, Molly Hooper is officially done for series 3[18] while Awel tweets about some important numbers [19].

In this episode: We discuss the past week’s spoilers for Sherlock series 3.
Art by Fox Estacado
This Week’s Top Ten Five:
1. Most of this week’s filming took place inside which meant photos were limited. However, apparently we’ll be seeing something brand new [1] and special [2]. Could this be related to Sherlock’s Mind Palace, which we are also meant to see more of [3] ?
2. There will definitely be Mycroft and Sherlock interaction in this episode. [4] Although, apparently, this does not involve either Holmes kicking the other in the crotch [5] [6].
3. Arwel continues to use Twitter to torment the fandom [7]. Loo thinks series 3 will blow our minds [8] and Amanda adores her job? [9] Is this planned promotion or are they just really excited.
4. Pembrey [10][11] and now this also seems to make a little bit more sense [12] — canon: [13]
5. Casting and potential plot spoiler – we suspect a Monk will make a pivotal appearance in this episode based upon a recently completed casting call for Tibetan Monks for a Wales-based popular series [14]. This would also fit with an ACD canon reference in The Adventure of the Empty House [15] in which Sherlock briefly mentions his exploits while he was away [16].
