Always You

They had too much in common to forget so quickly. Forget the stars, the nights, the blood-soaked bandages, the cold of their touches and the heat of their kisses, forget the wounds, the scars, the breath and the cigarettes.

The story of a military doctor and the best marksman in the history of the British Army, who turn out to be more than just colleagues, more than just friends, more than just lovers, more than just enemies.

yes of course i also have a playlist here we go

a common problem

Returning to London this time was more difficult than usual - Watson would never call himself a fan of any kind of travel, especially when it involved another Sherlock case rather than a simple attempt at a break from routine. John hated the lack of routine in his life - every second of his so called time off was forcing him to remember things that he would have liked to have forgotten forever. That very past had come to him predatorily, dissecting unhealed wounds, reveling in his pain.

Watson sighed and looked out into the cold waves of the English Channel, feeling the fine rain begin to drizzle unpleasantly on his face. For the first time in a long time, he does not want to return to England, does not want to see the streets of London, does not want to hear the voices of Mrs Hudson asking him questions he does not know the answers to. For the first time in a long time, this flat will be truly empty - no one else will be playing the violin while watching the flies in the bottle spin clockwise, no one else will be killing and resurrecting his dog, no one else will be looking over his shoulder as he writes a new story and commenting that it was all wrong. There will be no more Sherlock Holmes in John Watson's life. Tears streamed coldly down his cheeks, and as much as John tried to convince himself that it was just the wind and tired eyes, he knew deep down that it was self-deception.

Watson felt broken again.

The last time he had felt such an all-consuming emptiness had been in the army, when the one he had been willing to give everything in the world to had been completely reluctant to accept it. Only then had John not had a chance to forget, and now he knew that the world was not as simple as he wanted it to be. The man rubs the ring on the ring finger of his left hand, exhales and smiles with relief - his life still makes sense and his broken heart just needs surgery, new stitches over the old ones that have turned into long scars. These thin lines, which seemed to cross not only his heart but also his lungs, had been burning with incredible pain for the past few months, causing him to gasp and lose control. Memory is an amazing system, storing all those neural connections he would have liked to burn out with fire, turning them to ash. Watson lifts his eyes to the sky, looking at the dark rain clouds hanging over the island of Britain - damn it, why does the weather always confirm these stupid stereotypes? He grips the metal handrail tighter, biting his lower lip - he can handle this loss, this pain and this guilt that tears at his chest, breaking his ribs with a crack - if he'd been here, Sherlock would still be alive. Possibly. He could have helped, couldn't he?

The doctor doesn't know. He wished someone would answer the questions that would now run through his mind before he went to sleep for months.During the war, many soldiers began to take morphine in order not to think and not to suffer from nightmares at night, in order to escape the obsessive mosquitoes of thought. Many smoked, got drunk to the point of unconsciousness, covered their pain with someone else's, and became even more violent. Watson was sickened by the realisation that, in the eyes of the locals, he was the same rapist as half the soldiers, for whom the frequent trips to villages and towns became entertainment. He is the same because he never found the strength to stop, to speak out, to protect - he thought of himself and how not to smear his hands with blood, while drops of blood from another accidentally murdered girl have long since frozen on his face. This will always be with him - the mark of a defender who kills for a dubious purpose. A military uniform soaked in tears, blood and sweat, not covered with medals and flowers. God, why did he agree to this in the first place?

The ferry was moving slowly towards England - the crossing would take at least another hour, and after Dover there was still the matter of getting to London somehow, but that should have been arranged by Mycroft, who had promised to return to the island in a few days - he definitely had some business to settle on the mainland, and frankly, Watson was not at all against spending some time alone, getting home. The word home sounded completely different in his head now, as if it had lost some of its meaning and colour. It would take him some time to get used to the fact that the home now belonged to Mary and himself, and certainly not to Sherlock Holmes. His absence seemed like something beyond reality - how could such a person possibly be able to die? Although the same question could be asked of Moriarty, whose death was equally difficult to accept. These two seemed immortal, but in the end turned out to be ordinary people of flesh and blood, like himself. Like everyone on this ferry. John turns to see no one else on deck - the rain intensifies, flooding his eyes and trickling down the collar of his coat, leaving him alone to watch the rolling waves. His heart aches with anxiety, and Watson grows cold and probably really scared - he not only feels it, he knows that his personal nightmare is coming home with him. Even if they don't share this boat now, they will be forced to share a London and a country for the rest of their lives.

***

London in May has always been different - more open, simpler, honest and cleaner. It seemed as if even the city's streets were coming out of hibernation, finally allowing themselves to show care and tenderness towards the locals. By May, the capital had stopped treating people as parasites. It was treating them as equal friends, to whom you could show flowers and who would buzz over your head with the sound of a flying bee.

Moran hated London during this period. While everyone around him was smiling, almost skipping over the cobbles, he was disgusted by this affectation of universal joy, while in poor areas someone was dying of hunger, falling asleep on the very same streets, with the only difference that no one cared what was happening in the industrial areas whose hunger fed the capital and the royal family. Not that Sebastian was a representative of the East End, he just wanted to take his anger out on someone in the heyday of the heart of England, and all these rich people enjoying the sunshine was the perfect opportunity. Although this year, for the first time in many years, his heart decided to deal with the pain with love and care. Maybe he was just tired. Maybe he's losing his grip. Maybe, after Switzerland, he just doesn't want to be the Sebastian Moran who gave himself up blindly to be torn to pieces. Maybe all at once.

Love has always been too complicated a subject for Moran. Sebastian suffered from a lack of love as a child, and this was clearly too much ingrained in his character - closed off, he would not allow himself to fall in love, and would not allow others to feel anything but anger and hatred towards him. Each time he allowed these inner walls to collapse, he regretted the decision - his relationship was never the ideal that the human soul strives for. Affection and pain are two words Moran can use to describe love. Used to describe. This time he gives himself another chance, trying not to think about the past, which for some reason has not allowed him to forget himself for at least six months, if not longer.

A man smiles crookedly at his own reflection in the mirror - how did this woman choose him? Scarred, in pain, suffering from nightmares, with grey streaks at his temples, Moran looked at himself in the mirror and saw tired eyes and a throat constricted by a tie. Thin, tall, tired and definitely not handsome, he did not understand how it was that he had literally a date for tonight with a woman who boldly looked him in the eye and gently took his hand. It was then that Sebastian realised he didn't want to go back - that was enough. Enough killing, enough gunpowder-smelling palms, enough blood on his shirts, enough wounds that he had to sew up with his own hands, howling in pain. Sebastian Moran allows himself to live. The problem is that life doesn't really want to accept a retired soldier.

For the first few weeks after his return to London, he literally rotted away alone, not knowing where to go or what to do with himself - he had never been left to himself for so long as he could remember - first his father, then his professors at Eton, the army, James. Moriarty's absence left him breathless and bereft of the meaning of life, and after three weeks of seclusion he was drawn to the streets on an empty stomach - Moran needed money. No, he had plenty of money - he had learnt to save it for just such an eventuality, never thinking that such an eventuality would become a reality. Moran needed to do something, even if it was just wandering the streets. Alcohol replaced normal food, rare street fights saturated the blood with adrenaline, which Sebastian needed as a drug.

Surprisingly, this scheme worked at first. At least until the moment when he fell asleep completely drunk in someone's garden, I don't even remember how he got there. There were no screams and tantrums - he saw something familiar in the other person's eyes, like the pain in his chest, and then apologised a thousand times to the girl on whose territory he had spent the night. And now, after a month of their communication, Sebastian is beginning to realise that he seems ready to give himself up again.

The man adjusts the collar of his shirt for the last time, casually touching the thin rope around his neck. How long has he been in the church? At least 20 years, if not more. And he still dares to call himself a man of faith. Moran believes in God because he had nothing left to believe in - the truths and prayers of the Church were hammered into him from birth, but after the family moved from Ireland to England it became harder to talk about his religion. Being a Catholic among Protestants is an incredible school of endurance and self-control for a child who does not understand what he has done wrong. Sebastian felt like a stranger even then, and that feeling grew stronger with each passing year. Then he did not understand why his father did not allow him to speak Irish, now Moran plays with that ability as a dangerous privilege, but he still knows that even as Moriarty's right-hand man he was still a stranger. A useful stranger to James. Moriarty was one of those who respected him and his choice, and even if it was a lie, that lie warmed Sebastian's soul.

The sharpshooter knew when he was being followed. Years of training and practice made themselves felt - even in the turbulent flow of street life, Sebastian could feel someone else's gaze burning into his back. The only question was who. But no, there were more questions - why, why and what exactly they wanted to find out through this surveillance. Turning sharply into a dark alley, Moran decides to cut through an abandoned warehouse and check out who was watching his every move so intently. Moran steps into the shadow of the wall, invisible to anyone following him. Sebastian will have at least two options - slip back into the noisy street or attack from behind, drowning out the screams. The soldier grins, rubbing his fingers in impatience and smiling crookedly - he knew that working with Moriarty would mark his life forever and that such attempts to kill him would have to happen in his life, but so soon? Someone is not very good at planning revenge.

"Are you fuckin' following me?"

The man steps out of the shadows, immediately recognising a familiar figure and a familiar walk, or almost walk. John Watson clicks on his heels at the sound of the voice, jumps up to Moran and hisses in his face.

"Yes. I'm fucking following you. And you're going to tell me right now what your business is and what you're up to. How are you even not in jail?"

"Shall I answer a few more questions, or shall we start with these two?"

Watson punches him hard in the stomach and Moran breaks in two, choking and coughing. He knows where to hit to get the result, he remembers. A military doctor's knowledge lasts forever and Sebastian spits, grinning.

"No, we're not going to talk like that," Sebastian laughs, pushing John to the ground and sitting on his hips, taking a blow to the ribs that leaves him gasping for air. Watson quickly pulls Moran towards him, rolling over and landing on top of him, pressing down on the sniper's neck. Enough to inconvenience, not enough to kill.

"I'm not going to talk to you. I need to know what you're up to. Just don't start thinking about normal life, I won't believe you."

"Then I have nothing to say to you, John. Get off me!"

Moran hisses, gasping, and grabs Watson's forearms to stop him. John stares into Sebastian's eyes, exhales and releases the man's throat, still on his hips.

"I don't believe you. You couldn't just forget Moriarty, you couldn't just start a normal life," the doctor whispers, looking away to hear a hoarse laugh and cough in response.

"John, I literally have a date tonight. How does that fit into the definition of a normal life?"

"You couldn't... couldn't because..."

"Because you can't?" asks Sebastian, interrupting Watson's repeated whispers and immediately catching a cold look at himself.

They are silent for a few minutes, just looking into each other's eyes - John is still sitting on Moran, looking down at him. He is still the same, after so many years, except that a rare grey hair is beginning to silver at his temples. And the eyes. The eyes are slowly dying - there is no longer the fire Watson is used to seeing. Although even then, during the service, that fire went out.

"What am I to do with you now?"

"Whatever you like. Slow, then fast, then slow again," Sebastian smiles without taking his eyes off John, who snorts at the phrase, rises from him and holds out his hand.

"Idiot."

"That's not true. Idiots don't live that long," Moran replies, shaking himself off. He rubs his jacket, brushing the dust from his shoulders, and hisses, running his fingers along his side where the blow had hit his ribs, "I'm sorry. We both lost an important part of ourselves in Switzerland."

"I lost a friend, you... You've lost your master. It's not the same."

"As a result, we were both at the centre of a common problem," Moran smiles sadly, "goodbye, John Watson. I hope we don't meet again."

It was a lie. Moran wanted to see Watson again, to regain what he had lost in their relationship, or at least to get a little closer to what they had once shared. John was still smoking the same cigarettes - Sebastian couldn't help but notice the smell with the doctor so close to his body. Surprisingly, they had never been so close and so far apart at the same time.

"And John, please. You have a wife, you have someone to live for. Stop looking for secrets in the shadows around you."

"I still don't believe you, Moran!" the doctor shouts in the sniper's wake, rubbing the bridge of his nose. Shit. Shit!

Watson was still standing alone in the middle of the abandoned building, staring into Moran's wake. The man was about to drop to his knees and burst into tears. Inside, everything was shaking with a crystalline crackle and it seemed as if the world was about to explode into hundreds of millions of particles. John got a migraine and closed his eyes, leaning against the wall and slowly sliding to the floor.

"A common problem between two stupid military men."

Hello! Can you recommend some nice feel-good fluff with John and Sherlock? Thank you and have a nice day 😊

Reply: I’d be happy to! I put together this Fluff Master List a while ago, plus here are some more fics posted since that should deliver on the fluffy side:

Bloodsicles and Bay Leaves by zingiber (10K, M, Johnlock and Mollstrade)When Sherlock struggles to ask for John’s hand in marriage, he turns to the animal kingdom for inspiration. Biology may be the key to John’s heart - or it may kill them both.

December by johnwatso, salambo06 (40K, E, Johnlock)Sherlock and John fall in love during a summer in December.

Home for Christmas by SilentAuror (19K, E, Johnlock)It’s been eleven months since Eurus Holmes happened, and just one since John and Rosie moved back into Baker Street at last. With Christmas just around the corner, both Sherlock and John are slightly baffled when Mrs Hudson decides to give them a slow cooker as a “house-warming present”…

Impetus by scullyseviltwin (11K, E, Johnlock)“We going to do this properly, then?”“Properly?” Sherlock parrots, a coy little smile touching his mouth.John aims for aloof, licks his lips and poses, “Date, I mean. We’ve got a candle, wine…”“If that’s all that’s required for a date, I’d say we had our first at Angelo’s years ago.”

In July of This Year by yaycoffee (12K, E, Johnlock)There is an oft-cited experiment discussed in classrooms and cocktail parties alike, a convenient analogy when one endeavors to make a point about not noticing the obvious until it is inevitable. Simply, if you place a frog on a hot plate, it will jump off immediately, but if you put that frog on a cool plate and turn up the heat slowly, slowly, it will simply burn.Or: How these two idiots melt together, finally.

Inktober 2019 by thinkanddoodle-batch (31-panel comic, NSFW (one panel only), Johnlock)This is an utterly charming friends-to-lovers story centered on Sherlock’s bed… which he is desperately trying to get John into!

Just to Hold You Close by sussexbound (70K, E, Johnlock)When a woman is murdered and the last person to see her alive is recently invalided army vet turned reluctant (and prickly) professional cuddler, John Watson, Sherlock Holmes is pulled into a world of intimacy and intrigue he never could have imagined. John is a conundrum and mystery: frank yet reserved, tender yet angry, open yet afraid. Sherlock is instantly drawn into his orbit, and begins to feel and desire things he never has before.

Kissing in the Name Of… by juliairian (21K, M, Johnlock)Did you know that kissing transmits healthy bacteria? Well now Sherlock knows, too, and is off on a new experiment.

Let You Kiss Me (So Sweet and So Soft) by out_there (8K, G, Johnlock)The first time Sherlock kisses him, John keeps his eyes open, and so does Sherlock, and mostly, he wonders what Sherlock could possibly be up to. There’ll be some logic to this. Some ridiculous experiment about body warmth or respiratory rates or testing a new way of picking pockets. Sherlock does the unimaginable for bizarre reasons, but behind it, there’s always logic and curiosity. Sometimes, it just takes him a while to explain it to John.

Stay (just a little bit longer) by subtext-is-my-division (15K, E, Johnlock)John may not be an expert, but he’s pretty sure that shagging your ex is a bloody awful idea.(Shame the sex is so good, though.)

The Death and Resurrection of a Beekeeper by shiplocks_of_love (12K, M, Johnlock)Sherlock escapes London for a quiet, solitary life in Sussex, exhausted after the whirlwind of drama following Mary’s death.One day, a letter arrives.

The Winter Garden by Callie4180 (31K, T, Johnlock)As Sherlock nears the end of his career, he’s given the gift of a cottage in Sussex. The honey from the beehives out back is amazing. Almost…magical.

To Feed Your Hunger by FinAmour (21K, E, Johnlock)What does a kiss say, after all? A kiss is a gift. A kiss is a promise. A kiss says, “You’re mine, and I’m yours.” John exhales. “Can I kiss you?” Sherlock is trembling in his arms. “If you don’t,” he murmurs roughly, “I may lose my mind.”

Were Stars to Burn by Chryse (13K, E, Johnlock)“Last night,” Sherlock said. His voice was so deep it practically rumbled. “What was that?”“I told you. You needed to calm down.”

And please have a look at the fabulous Unwind BDSM established relationship series by illwick, which has several very fluffy (and hot!) installments.

Sherlock Designer Arwel W Jones: ‘There’s a Magic to Set Design’

https://ift.tt/3eYLfrL

It’s summer 2011 and Arwel W Jones is causing a commotion in the Brecon Beacons. Cars overtake his forklift along the narrow country road, puzzling at the sight of a living room wall travelling solo past hedgerows and moorland. The wall belongs to Irene Adler, sometime adversary/paramour of Sherlock Holmes. It’s on its way to stand behind Benedict Cumberbatch, Martin Freeman and Lara Pulver in the series two opener of Sherlock, to help to tell their story and to make them look good.

Storytelling and making things look good are Jones’s job. As Sherlock’s production designer, his art department conceived, created and dressed the spaces where it all happened. Take design out of the mix and the actors would have been delivering their lines in an empty studio, like the one Jones posted a picture of in early 2011. That picture took him from 200 to 5K followers in under a week. It was the moment Jones realised that Sherlock was on the brink of something big.

‘It was a surprise, shall we say! We were amazed by the series one viewing figures but I wasn’t really aware of the attention to detail people took to it until we were in prep on series two.’

I’m speaking to Jones in July 2020 at the end of a three month industry shutdown due to the global coronavirus pandemic. The Doctor Who and Dracula designer has just re-started work on one of the first UK TV projects to return to production. During the enforced hiatus, he built himself a garden room and inside are a few items fans will recognise from his TV work. ‘I have a couple of Baker Street signs, one of the little dragons from either side of the fireplace in Dracula outside the door, a sign we didn’t use for the TARDIS, a little bit of wallpaper…’

The cut of wallpaper he’s framed is the gloriously named Devil Damask Flock by Timorous Beasties. Sherlock fans will recognise it from the walls of dominatrix Irene Adler’s bedroom. It’s Sherlock’s second most famous paper, the first being the Zoffany’s Navarre fleur-de-lys used in the living room of 221B Baker Street.

A decade ago, the now-famous print was neither an obvious nor universally popular choice, Jones tells me. ‘A Study in Pink‘ director Paul McGuigan and former Doctor Who production designer Edward Thomas both walked past the decorator while it was going up and were heard to express doubt. ‘I hope he knows what he’s doing’ was the consensus opinion, the fear being that the dark pattern would look too busy on screen. ‘Then on that first day on camera it worked, and that was a sense of relief. For that to become an iconic part of the show, it’s a bit of vindication,’ he laughs. In the years since, the pattern has appeared on fan walls, been tailored into clothing and recently – a mark of our times – printed onto Covid-19 face masks.

Jones is reluctant to claim responsibility for the explosion in print wallpaper sometimes called ‘the Sherlock effect’ in real-world interior design. ‘These things go in circles. It could have just been the time for that eclectic pattern thing to come back after so many years of paint effects.’ That said, he did notice there was a lot more patterned wallpaper on television after Sherlock. If he did kick start a trend, he didn’t see any benefits, he laughs. ‘I didn’t even get a reduction on the price of the Navarre paper. We got a trade discount, but nothing more than that. It’s been discontinued now.’

The frisson created by that first empty studio photo developed into an ongoing dialogue between the designer and Sherlock fans. Throughout the show’s four series, Jones gave the fandom behind-the-scenes glimpses, teasing props and pointing out design details that may otherwise have gone unnoticed. Considering the level of devotion Sherlock inspired, the latter is unlikely. Very little was missed, says Jones. In fact, quite the opposite. Fans were so dedicated to spotting Easter Eggs and symbolism in the set designs, sometimes they saw messages where none existed.

One Tumblr blog, says Jones, had painstakingly searched through the cluster of pictures on the wall of Kitty Riley’s flat in series two finale ‘The Reichenbach Fall‘, ‘and found a link to something in the backstories of the canon of Sherlock Holmes stories for every single image.’ The truth was, the pictures had come with the location. ‘We’d papered the wall, but we put all the pictures back where they were because I quite liked what the owner of the flat had done. I really wish I had the time to get into that much depth and detail with every element of sets and dressing, but you just don’t.’

A few set design details did escape fan attention when the series first aired. Scantily clad women painted into the wall behind Adler’s staircase were only noticed by a few, says Jones, but that’s all part of the plan. ‘You do something like that for a subliminal thing. People might not have gone ‘ooh, look at that!’ but it was registering somewhere that you were in a naughty space.’

The same goes for the set of drawings in the restaurant in ‘The Empty Hearse‘ in which Sherlock first meets John Watson after faking his death at the end of series two. ‘That whole sequence had resurrection to do with it. There were the pictures of a phoenix rising from the ashes in the first restaurant, and I can’t remember what was in the café now, but the name of the kebab house was also a resurrected god.’

Sherlock: 38 nerdy spots in The Final Problem

By Louisa Mellor

More personal nods to cast and crew found their way onto the sets. Since the birth of Jones’ son, his initials have popped up in some form on every show Jones has designed, in Sherlock as graffiti on the wall of a drug den in ‘His Last Vow’. In Dracula, the Tsar in the painting on the Demeter ship shared a face with his art director. In Sherlock Victorian special ‘The Abominable Bride‘, a pub sign bore the head of director Douglas Mackinnon.

Fan attention to detail was always appreciated. ‘It’s gratifying to know that the work you put in is worth it, but equally that adds a level of nervousness because you know that it will be picked apart and looked at.’

Jones’ one regret in his dialogue with Sherlock fans, he says, was a misunderstanding about hidden messages in the set design. ‘That was a little bit unfortunate. I put certain elephants in set dressing and then people started referencing #arwelephant. I’d kind of missed the link to the ‘elephant in the room’ [the term some fans had given to the homoeroticism of Sherlock and John’s relationship].’

‘I’ve always had elephants on numerous sets, to be honest with you. It was kind of an engaging thing with the fans, if I came across elephants in a prop store or something like that, I’d send a picture out and then I’d get a lot of replies, so I’d carry on, just as a little nod to them. I referenced the bullet-proof glass in Eurus’ cell as ‘Elephant Glass’, that was just a little nod to all the fans that I’d had that kind of relationship with, which I thought was quite funny.

‘I knew the link to ‘the elephant in the room’ in the script, but I hadn’t quite realised how certain people had taken it to heart. That was my one regret really, is that people thought I’d been queerbaiting, which I hadn’t at all, that would be the last thing on my mind.’

It’s the only short note of sadness in a conversation filled with laughter, pride and appreciation for Sherlock’s fans. ‘The greatest thing about the Sherlock fandom is their grace and how much reverence they have for everyone that’s worked on the show as well as the show itself.’

‘Even when we were shooting, when we had thousands of people turn up to watch the shoot and they were brilliant, they would go quiet when asked, they would move out of shot when asked, they would clean up when asked! That was always a fantastic side of it.’ The creativity of fans inspired by the show has been humbling, says Jones. ‘I’ve seen clothing, miniatures, people do their own houses, coursework for college courses, cakes! I saw a cake of John’s chair once, it’s incredibly flattering.’

The question he’s most often asked about Sherlock is when it’s coming back for series five. ‘And I have to let everyone down every time!’ Were the call to come to dust off the original sets for a return, does he have the materials to do it?

‘Technically speaking, no.’ The 221B wallpaper around the fireplace was a period piece Jones found in historical salvage. He bought the lot, ‘about 20 rolls, which I thought was more than enough. But then you don’t really expect to be still going four seasons on.’ He doesn’t have a full roll left. ‘We did dismantle that wall very very carefully to keep it, but it does still have to be cut in certain places. It depends how that comes out of storage.’

221B Baker Street is the only set currently in storage, packed away safely at production company Hartswood Films. Everything else was either recycled or binned. ‘Some of it is irretrievable, so that all goes in a skip, but anything you can gets recycled.’ Surely not everything ended up in a skip, I ask. What about the paintings of Mark Gatiss and Benedict Cumberbatch as their ancestors on display in Mycroft Holmes’ house in ‘The Final Problem’? Mark’s got the one with the bleeding eyes, says Jones.

Mark Gatiss and Steven Moffat, series creators, weren’t necessarily hard to please when it came to the Sherlock sets, remembers Jones, who also worked with Moffat on Doctor Who and the pair on BBC One’s sumptuous Dracula. ‘They’re massive, massive Sherlock Holmes fans, so you’ve got to be careful really, because they’ll be happy with most things you do for them because they love the show so much. It’s still got to do the right thing on camera, and it’s still got to tell a story.’

‘If they’re not happy with something, you’d know instantly, so it’s always a nervous moment when they walk on.’

Does he remember the first time Gatiss and Moffat walked onto the newly designed set of 221B after the unaired pilot? ‘Like it was yesterday!’

‘It was the same for that original TARDIS set, Christopher Eccleston going into David [Tennant]’s era. When you took someone onto that set – and when I was art directing that, I would quite often be the tour guide – you’d be talking about it and you’d see people stop listening to you and they’d wander off and pick things up and touch things, and that tells you a lot. When I took those two onto the 221B set for the first time, the same thing happened. They started ignoring me and were going around, sitting in the chairs, picking up props, touching things. There was definitely the same kind of vibe. They were just happy. A set that works,’ he explains, ‘that has an aesthetic to it, you get some satisfaction from being in the space. There’s a magic to it.’

By Wednesday afternoon, most of Arkady Babchenko's friends and colleagues had gone through the familiar cycle of grief and confusion that follows the killing of a Russian dissident journalist. Obituaries had been written, travel arrangements were in train for the funeral, and Western politicians including Boris Johnson had announced they were "appalled". Meanwhile, Ukraine had blamed Russia, Russia had blamed Ukraine, and both launched rival investigations to prove their stories. And journalists in both countries, taught by bitter experience not to trust official probes into the deaths of their colleagues, pledged to run their own investigations. But then came a twist that no one could have predicted: Vasily Gritsak, the head of Ukraine's Security Service (SBU), called a press conference and announced the whole thing had been a hoax. Arkady Babchenko, right, appeared at a Press conference into his own 'death' held by the head of Ukraine's Security Service Credit: VALENTYN OGIRENKO /Reuters For a moment, there was an uncomprehending silence. Then a door opened, and in shuffled a familiar shaven headed man. Arkady Babchenko was wearing light trousers and a black hoodie. And he was looking somewhat sheepish. "I have buried many friends and colleagues many times and I know the sickening feeling," he said, by way of explanation. "I am sorry you had to experience it. But there was no other way." "Special apologies to my wife. Olechka, I am sorry, but there were no options here," he said. "The operation took two months to prepare. I was told a month ago. As a result of the operation, one person has been captured, he is being held," he added. Mr Gritsak said Mr Babchenko's fake death, which fooled his closest friends and family, as well as international media and world leaders, had allowed Ukrainian agents to thwart a genuine plot to take the journalist's life. Arkady Babchenko and his wife Olga, to whom he apologised for the fakery Credit: Facebook/east2west news Staging the murder, he implied, was necessary to gain evidence of communication between the hit man and his handlers, who he said worked for the Russian security services. Yury Lutsenko, Ukraine's prosecutor general, said the alleged plot had involved a Ukrainian citizen recruited by Russian handlers to carry out the murder.

By Wednesday afternoon, most of Arkady Babchenko's friends and colleagues had gone through the familiar cycle of grief and confusion that follows the killing of a Russian dissident journalist. Obituaries had been written, travel arrangements were in train for the funeral, and Western politicians including Boris Johnson had announced they were "appalled". Meanwhile, Ukraine had blamed Russia, Russia had blamed Ukraine, and both launched rival investigations to prove their stories. And journalists in both countries, taught by bitter experience not to trust official probes into the deaths of their colleagues, pledged to run their own investigations. But then came a twist that no one could have predicted: Vasily Gritsak, the head of Ukraine's Security Service (SBU), called a press conference and announced the whole thing had been a hoax. Arkady Babchenko, centre, told a Press conference in Kiev the reported murder was part of sting operation to catch a hit squad Credit: VALENTYN OGIRENKO /Reuters For a moment, there was an uncomprehending silence. Then a door opened, and in shuffled a familiar shaven headed man. Arkady Babchenko was wearing light trousers and a black hoodie. And he was looking somewhat sheepish. "I have buried many friends and colleagues many times and I know the sickening feeling," he said, by way of explanation. "I am sorry you had to experience it. But there was no other way." "Special apologies to my wife. Olechka, I am sorry, but there were no options here," he said. "The operation took two months to prepare. I was told a month ago. As a result of the operation, one person has been captured, he is being held," he added. Mr Gritsak said Mr Babchenko's fake death, which fooled his closest friends and family, as well as international media and world leaders, had allowed Ukrainian agents to thwart a genuine plot to take the journalist's life. Arkady Babchenko was a fierce critic of Vladimir Putin Credit: Vitalii Nosach/Reuters Staging the murder, he implied, was necessary to gain evidence of communication between the hit man and his handlers, who he said worked for the Russian security services. Yury Lutsenko, Ukraine's prosecutor general, said the alleged plot had involved a Ukrainian citizen recruited by Russian handlers to carry out the murder. The SBU later released video of what they said was money being handed to the hired killer.
