Rewatched 'The Final Problem'. Of course it's not a detective story and not even a thriller - it is more a philosophical parable, a mythical search of one's identity which could be an end, but is in reality just a beginning of Sherlock's journey. It is the only episode of the show that keeps the viewer in suspense until the very end and has a perfect hommage to every permanent character and actor. Benjamin Caron's direction crowns the story perfectly, and the real stars of the night are of course Benedict Cumberbatch, Sian Brooke and Mark Gatiss. I've probably said it before but I say it again: it doesn't matter if Martin Freeman doesn't want to return - let's rename the show 'Holmes' and have a four and a half hours long celebration of the three most prominent British actors of our time (two of whom are so undeservingly less famous than the other). But no, I probably talk to much. Don't mind me. I only add that I can't imagine Mycroft and Eurus without the wonderful voices of Valery Storozhik (Валерий Сторожик) and Irina Kireeva (Ирина Киреева), who did a voice acting for Mark Gatiss and Sian Brooke in the Russian version of the series, and also give a link to the video where I play 'Who You Really Are' on piano (recently @rey-jake-therapist asked me about my talents - consider it one of them ;) )
