Just watched it on iplayer, it was simply brilliant. I think Sherlock fit the modern London lifestyle perfectly, what did you think of it?

Very good, dark and yet humorous and intelligent. I still prefer Jonathan Creek, but it's still very good.

Loved it- Mycroft was done brilliantly! They built that up perfectly.

By the way, please excuse all spelling and grammar mistakes- they are indeed numerous and highly irritating. If its any consolation they annoy me just as much. Its just combing through and editing your post for a 3rd time for that last 'their' that should be 'they're' would last me to the next general election. I'm not good with keyboards. But I am a good speller in the real world. Really. I'm not just saying that.

I hate "modern re-imaginings", so I think you can guess my opinion of the programme...

Really enjoyed the programme. I especially loved the bit where Watson reveals that Harry is actually short for harriet!

I have to say the first episode is excellent. An interesting mix of A Study in Scarlet and new elements. Though I didn't like the exact translation of the pocket watch analysis to the phone analysis. Hopefully there won't be any more cheap shit like that.
Though Mycroft's personality and relation to Sherlock is being completely changed.

The only problem is it is 3 episodes unless they commission more.
