SPOILERS for A scandal in Belgravia.

First things first : THIS WHOLE EPISODE WAS F*CKING PERFECT. I was afraid that the series 2 couldn't be as good as the series1 but WOW. If the next episodes are half as good as this one was, this series will be even better!!
I loved EVERYTHING. Benedict Cumberbatch is so damn talented, it's crazy. He IS Sherlock Holmes, he captured perfectly the essence of the character AND reinterpreted it. Brilliant. And he's hot as well. All the actors are perfect, the characters are magnificent, the scenery is gorgeous, the writers are geniuses.
Mycroft. John. Molly (hoooow cuuuuute). Jim ('stayin alive', seriously. I love him). IRENE. Yes, IRENE. I'm not a big fan of the character initally but I just looooooved Lara Pulver's interpretation. Her relationship with Sherlock is perfect. I was scared she'll be some kind of love interest except it's so out of Sherlock's character that I would have hate it. But Moffat and Gatiss wrote this relationship exactly as it should be. Fascination. Admiration. Respect. I don't think she really loved him. Who knows if she wasn't bluffing at the end? She was clearly... aroused by Sherlock. (Who wouldn't?) But in love? Is she even capable of love? I don't ship Sherlock/Irene at all. But I highly enjoyed their interactions.
Gosh I love this series SO much. It's the BEST. Definitely. DW has flaws, Sherlock doesn't have any.

Anyway, I know a lot of people made a video about Irene already and way better than mine but I wanted to do something too. The song is a little bit of a love song but well, there's not a lot of videos sayin 'i admire your brain'. And I love this song.
Enjoy! (I hope)
