There is now a tumblr called 221 Baking Geeks

Olympics video is being pulled down as fast as it goes up, but The Montreal Gazette has the Benedict Cumberbatch opening sequence. (And do not even START me on NBC's coverage. The only thing that could have been more offensive than NBC's censoring of the tribute to terrorist victims is NBC's patronizing response to being called out on it.)

Folk on Twitter: Tomorrow a twitter-based online murder mystery goes live.

John Finnemore has a Cabin Pressure FAQ up on his blog. Yes, there will be a 4th season, with the same cast... whenever he can get his mitts on the cast and writes the episodes. His comment on unsolicited scripts and fanfic is a masterpiece of diplomatic humor.


Holmesian Canon Links
The Mystery of 221 B Baker Street - mapping out where the original flat was, and how it was supposed to look, with photos of various recreations.

Abbreviations Reference Card. Holmesians tend to refer to the canonical stories with a 4-letter code taken from the title. (As you've noticed; that's extended into Sherlock fandom, with references to the episodes, in order, as PINK, BANK, GAME, BELG, BASK, and FALL.) Fortunately, there's enough wriggle room in multi-word titles to distinguish between The Canon and Sherlock canon: The Hound of the Baskervilles is HOUN, so The Hounds of Baskerville became BASK. Equally, Scandal in Bohemia is SCAN, while Scandal in Belgravia is BELG.

Another theory on "IOU" in FALL

Fic:
What She Saw Molly's POV watching one character react to another's death, because she's seen this before. The sole warning is for character death; as someone who recently put a pet to sleep, I would have appreciated a warning for those extended scenes, so here that warning is.

For once I'm not reccing slash because of the slash part - TBH, I think the final set of "we're gonna get it on" texts is the weakest part of On Lacuna and Conjunction. It's all the texts leading up to it that amuse me.

Speaking of amusing me, here's an AU with a twist: John is John. Sherlock is the monster under the bed. Bump in the Night and its Mycroft-centered sequel, My Brother's Keeper. Mycroft makes an even better monster-under-the-bed than Sherlock: Scaring a child in their bedroom is a petty pleasure, intimidating whole countries with a few words and a tilt of his head in an utter joy.

Chutzpah award to whoever turned a robot vacuum review into Sherlock fanfic.

It was either comments on the national dress, fill-in-country never won a medal, or the country-of-the-moment's awful history of war/genocide/etc. Several moments of "Did they really use that???" I really want the commentators on a separate channel like SAP so I can turn it on or off as necessary.

Oh, yes, PLEASE! I wanted to claw out my own eardrums as whatsherface went on and On and ON about how nobody really knew who Tim Berners-Lee was.
