A couple of days ago I talked a lot about a program I'm repeatedly watching; 'Sherlock'.
Series 1- A Study In Pink
Now, Benedict Cumberbatch is Sherlock Holmes in this particular program. He and his flat-mate, a recently returned Afghanistan Army Doctor, Dr John Watson-Martin freeman- meet when a friend of both of the men tells each about the other one. They each both say, "Who would want me as a flat-mate?"
And that's where the story began.
They met and they then agreed to share a flat: 221B Baker Street in London. At this point, Sherlock Holmes has already guessed most things about John's life. And when the Police turn up at the Baker Street flat, John's World is re-arranged because of his flat-mate's career.
Sherlock is hated by many a person. He doesn't have friends, only enemies and people who dislike him. For example, Anderson. He is a Forensic Scientist for the Police Force and he is always picked on by Sherlock. Here is something that Sherlock has said about Anderson... I mean he insults him on many, many occasions, but this is one of the funniest. "Stop talking Anderson. You're lowering the IQ of the whole street..." Haha! How harsh is that! But then again, it's a pretty awesome insult! Any way...
The crime that the Police went to see Sherlock about had already happened three times. However they were all suspected suicides. But this one was different... Why? The lady whom was found dead, lying face down in the top floored room of an abandoned house, left a letter. It was not entirely clear what the message meant to the Police!
Sherlock Holmes on the other hand has an almost mystical power. He can simply look at anyone and guess their whole life/ what they've been doing recently. In this circumstance, he could guess many a thing. He noticed that her coat was wet, and there was no heavy rain in London that day. Therefore she must have traveled from somewhere because of the rain. However her coat hadn't dried yet so it couldn't have been somewhere further away than a 3 hour drive. He noticed that the note that she left was carved out in the floor boards, she used her nails to carve it. The message was; 'RACHE'. Rache means revenge in German. Which Anderson noticed, but he was politely kicked out of the room... But Sherlock noticed that in fact she was trying to write 'Rachel'. Rachel was Jennifer Wilson's-The dead woman- still born child, 14 years ago. Jennifer was fully dressed in pink, her nails were pink, her coat was pink and her clothes were pink. All of her jewelry was well polished, except for her wedding ring. The inside was well polished because Sherlock concluded that she took it off a lot... Therefore she must have had a string of lovers, because the dirty wedding ring must mean that she was unhappily married. There were marks from where she dragged a suitcase behind her, however the suitcase was nowhere with her. Nor her phone. Sherlock found the suitcase easily, however the phone was still not with the deceased. During a drugs bust in Sherlock's flat-Sherlock using drugs and smoking- John tracks the phone to right inside their flat. A taxi driver stands creepily at the door, and texts Sherlock "Come with me". Sherlock gets into the driver's taxi and goes with him to this college place. In the college the taxi driver explains that he has a sponsor. For every person he kills, his children get some money when he dies. He gives Sherlock a game to play. There are two bottles, each identical and each containing a pill. The game: One pill will kill you, and one pill will let you live. You pick a pill and take it. The taxi driver takes the other. It's a fifty-fifty chance... Either that or you can take a shot from a cigarette lighter in the shape of a gun. In the end John shoots the taxi driver and Sherlock's brother Mycroft turns up outside with the police. He wants to keep a close eye on both Sherlock and John. Their story begins, the friendship of two men that will last their entire life-time.
Series 1- The Blind Banker
In this episode two men have been killed and before they died strange letters where wrote on the wall for them. The letters were ancient Chinese. In the end, they found out that the two men were part of a smuggling company called 'The Black Lotus'. In the end the artifact that was stolen by one of the two men who was killed was found on his receptionists hair. It was worth £9million. She kept it.
I didn't write much on that one because it wasn't that interesting! I'll write about episode 3 tomorrow, because it's a good episode and I want to write a lot about it. Whereas that one wasn't great! Haha. They're all pretty good, but you know.
I shall see you tomorrow.
I've ruined the episodes so far, but you should watch the program!
It's a great program!
And Benedict Cumberbatch is a fantastic actor!
He's in Star Trek Into Darkness!
WOOHOO!!
See You!
Ginge Off!
