OMG. The scarf comes off, and everyone in the room is instantly drawn to Sherlock.  Of course they are!

His sighs may be the stuff of legend, but it’s these exquisite noises, these wordless, throaty sounds of that seem to teeter between need and distress and back again…
For god’s sake, Sherlock, hug the man!

I adore this little shorty (the story, the doctor/soldier) more than I can say.

Love this modern take on Icarus and Daedalus, even though it’s really sad.

Ben’s reaction—subtle and elegant, so perfectly Sherlock.  He makes it look easy. 

I have a theory about why Ben doesn’t win BAFTAs for his performance as Sherlock Holmes.  He has the title role, but of course Sherlock really has two leads.  (They could have call it Sherlock and John, but then people would talk.)  Besides that, the supporting cast is incredibly strong, and the writers of this project are talented celebrities in their own right.  With Sherlock Holmes productions, people expect the lead actor to carry most of the freight and for the success of the show to hinge on the charisma/strength of his performance.  I think that Ben’s problem is simply one of that expectation not being met—there is more to the show than just him, even though he brings a mountain of glittery excellence to the party.    

Crossing my fingers for a win next year. :)
