Reasons why I will never stop loving this scene:

Mrs. Hudson and the most important man in Britain crawling under the table trying to fool Moran with sticks and giggles 

Mycroft talking softly to Mrs. Hudson, not ordering, but advising her what to do 

Mycroft standing on all fours with a tablecloth on his head, but still wearing a monocle 

Mycroft agreeing to all of this 

Mycroft being really into it

Mrs. Hudson having no problem crawling on the floor like a three year old totally okay with a bullet shooting through her window

Mrs. Hudson and Mycroft Holmes working together to help Sherlock out

Mrs. Hudson preparing dinner for four people at the end: for Sherlock, Watson, herself and Mycroft 

This is what fighting crimes should feel like: heartwarming.

“I think he’s a very modern person. He’s interested in the poor, the street, law and justice. He got there before Clint Eastwood”

Have some Jeremy Brett “he did it before it was cool”-ing Holmes

k but if u haven’t seen the guy ritchie sherlock films u don’t get it but they fully wrote holmes as in love w watson. like undeniably in love. In the first ten mins holmes refuses to take a Single case for three months bc watson won’t go with him. he locks himself in his room for two straight weeks, drugs the dog, and shoots the wall for attention bc watson is moving out. he says the world outside his room has nothing to offer until watson asks him to go to dinner & immediately agrees. he humiliates mary bc he’s jealous she can marry watson and he can’t. he goes to a fight club to Feel Something bc he knows john is slipping away from him. there’s never any “oh well just bros being bros” the whole tone towards it is just “ofc he’s in love w watson that’s one of his defining character traits”

TIL (via @fractalexplanations) that William Gillette built this "totally not a castle":

Sorry, Mr. Gillette, if it looks like a castle...!

Design highlights include:

Gillette designed 47 one-of-a-kind doors within the structure, each having a unique, elaborate latch intricately carved of wood. A built-in liquor cabinet could be locked by Gillette who then could view it from the second-floor balcony through one of three strategically placed mirrors.

I had no idea William Gillette was this eccentric (admiring, affectionate.)

This scene from The Copper Beeches has gotta be like top ten Holmes autism moments of all time. “It is one of the curses of a mind with a turn like mine that I must look at everything with reference to my own special subject.” Okay buddy 😭

Bonus doodle!
