Concerning John...

John Watson is, after Sherlock, my favorite character in BBC Sherlock. Both of them are incredibly nuanced and interesting, as far as I am concerned.

And I want to give my comments regarding John and his repression of emotions. And we've seen throughout the series (in particular in TRF) how John quickly returns to the stiff upper lip when there are people around, watching. So he would never faint, as ACD Watson does. (It is interesting, though, that he views aggression as a more acceptable emotion to show in public). There is a lot of focus on how repressed John is, emotionally. Which is very true, all the way back to ASiP. John has always bottled everything. Which, when I think of it, gives TLD, another great layer. 1. It gives the horryfing consequences when John stops bottling his anger and it ends up as horrible violence towards Sherlock 2. It also gives the most amazing consequences when, for the first time, John dares to let his guard down infront of someone else. Remember back in ASIP when John wakes from his nightmare. He is so repressed he can't even cry when alone. In TBB he is so ashamed of the "row with the machine" that he just walks out, and only with great difficulty does he ask Sherlock for money. In TRF, only minutes after Sherlock falls, he again bottles up, dismisses any comfort from other people, giving "I'm fine" vibe to the people surrounding him. For John to not only cry in front of Sherlock, but to also accept his comfort, is huge. More than huge, it's enormous. Something we have never seen him doing before. People keep asking for his apology to Sherlock. Which I wouldn't have minded myself. But considering where John comes from, there is no bigger leap of trust than what John gives Sherlock in that moment. And I get the impression that Sherlock understands all this. Sherlock has never been wiser than he is in that hug.
