I confess that I covet your skull

I've worked how why Sherlock's Mycroft irritates me so much: he reminds me of Braxiatel. Now I want to know, given the Master's origins, if Mycroft was in mind for Brax, especially with the later Gallifrey stuff.

I'm still a bit disappointed they didn't recast Lestrade or Moriarty as a woman. I was, very secretly and not hopefully, wishing for a female Moriarty. Mostly I hope they have Adler next season and I hope Moffat writes her. Given his rather nifty track record for intelligent, independent woman, I suspect I would LOVE HER LIKE PIE.

Actually, while I'm wishing for things: I'd also like to see their version of Hound of the Baskervilles cause it's not like there's been a proper awesome celluloid version of that ever (though I am terribly find of one of the Cushing ones) and five hundredth time's a charm, possibly.

On a completely different note, I hate the expression "the question is..." This is entirely DS9's fault. It's like "going straight to hell" in Babylon 5. You do not buy phrases in job lots, goodness sake.

In my brain, the Moriarty that we saw was a front for the real Moriarty, who's been pulling one over on everyone since episode one: Molly Hooper.

I have many friends who subscribe to this theory. It would be a bit brilliant.

It would have been a bit more exciting that, I think.

This. I love this idea so much. And we have a whole, lovely year to cling to it as trufax! (Yes, I'm desperate to put a positive spin on having to wait for new episodes.)

Yes! I said the same thing above! MOLLY = MORIARTY.
