“My mind rebels at stagnation. Give me problems, give me work...”

Fog rolls across the Thames as lanterns sway on the creaking masts. The docks of Victorian London lie shrouded in shadow, where whispers travel farther than light. A small boat slips silently through the water — its destination unknown, its cargo perhaps deadly.

In the heart of the city, danger floats just below the surface — and Holmes is already watching from the shore.

Rewatched 'The Sign of Three'. Without doubt, one of the most heart-breaking episodes of 'Sherlock' and also one of the best. The structure and storytelling are very clever, the pacing is perfect and the characters are fun. One more step towards making Sherlock the only main character of the show, but it looks natural and nothing seems amiss. The supporting characters of this episode are memorable and fit very good into the story. Alistair Petrie gives a powerful performance as James Sholto, Ed Birch is fun as Tom, Alfred Enoch has a small, but significant role as Bainbridge, and Adam Greaves-Neal delights the viewer as a sweet page boy. On the whole, 'The Sign of Three' is one of the best interpretations of a rather tedious original story which was not that lucky when it came to adaptations (the 1932 movie is my favourite one, with Granada and the Soviet versions again showing very little ingenuity). One of the reasons is the touching performance of Benedict Cumberbatch who portrays Sherlock Holmes at the brink of a life-changing drama. Losing a friend to death is tragic, but losing a friend to a different life can be truly unbearable, and some of us who know what it's like are not able to watch this episode without feeling a heart's pain. The answer to this drama given later in the series felt a little controversial, but there is always hope where Sherlock Holmes is concerned, so let's not be too sad because of this bitter-sweetness, so loved by the show's creators.

📖✨ Not really a huge fan of detective stories but well, Sherlock's a classic! I was able to read some of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's works during my uni days. However, I didn't then perceive how truly exciting Sherlock and Watson's escapades are... until now 👌 ~•~ #TheSignOfFour #SherlockHolmes #SirArthurConanDoyle #booksofinstagram #bookstagram #bookswormsuae #bookwormsph 📚🔖 https://www.instagram.com/books.and.luster/p/CYD-isYL64N/?utm_medium=tumblr
