Sherlock Finishes, now we wait until 2016

All Sherlock fans must have experienced this feeling before, after a long wait of nearly 2 years a TV show that you love has returned in full glory, your loving every moment of the show and cannot wait for the next episode, the. Almost as suddenly as it starts it's finished again, waiting on the shelves for yet another 2 year 2YEARS. After series two the producers said and I quote "we will try to get the next series on TV within the year" and yet they didn't get it out within that year, or the next and we saw reports of it being released in April changed to October and then changed to January the next year, however it was worth the wait 100%

The empty hearse- amazing episode especially with the keeping us in the dark on what really happened by giving us crazy conspiracy theories from his fan club. Also loved the horrible trick that Sherlock played on Watson at the end by pretending not to know how to discuss the bomb, an utterly priceless moment. However I was slightly disappointed with the way that Sherlock faked his own death as it was rather "obvious" and the reason most fans would have looked over it was because it wasn't clever enough but it's sneaky how they did that by showing us that we all have som of Sherlock fatal flaw within us. Also I was incredibly proud that I worked out the part about the kidnapper who looked like Sherlock, you saw it on this blog first.

The sign of Three- when I realised that John wasn't going to be meeting Mary for the first time as a client in this adaptation I wondered what they were going to do and it didn't disappoint in the slightest, there was humour and a great mystery all of which wrapped up in an amazing Best man's speech. Also I loved the way we found out more about Mrs Hudson's husband who Sherlock ensured got executed.

His Final Vow- one word to describe this WOW. What an amazing way to end the series with an amazing problem (how to stop the despicable Charles Augustus Magnussen) whilst going through the heartbreak of finding out your wife once was a contract killer. this was possible the best written of all the three episodes and made sure that everyone knew the old Sherlock wasn't dead. Also I loved the mystery at the end of the episode when we find out Moriaty is back and pulling more audacious stunts than ever before and the way Sherlock's exile was done with him being gone for 4 minutes before having to be called back to England was great. I don't have a word of criticism for this episode at all.


I make a plea to any producer of Sherlock who reads this blog DONT MAKE US WAIT ANOTHER TWO YEARS. PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!

On another note I have just taken my Maths GCSE and am slightly worried on the level of boredom attained from doing a 2 hour paper in 35 minutes. How on earth am I going to cope in the summer when I have 21 different exam paper to sit through I do not know

Back to School

After a thoroughly enjoyable Christmas holiday it is now time for me to go back to school. The long tedium that repeats itself day in, day out. Before I have to back to school there is a lot of holiday work that I have to do. For example I have to do 4 hours minimum of making notes for History coursework about the Blitz with a minimum of ten solid pages done in that time, 4 two hour maths papers plus mark them because my GCSE is on FRIDAY, complete a revision pack plus a poster for music, learn all of the vocab for German plus do a diary of the cuban missile crisis for History as well. All in all the History note-taking took 6 hours, the 8 hours of maths papers took 2 hours (it pays to be nerd) music so far took 15 minutes but is still incomplete, I've only spent 30 minutes learning German vocab and I've barely starred my CMC diary for History.

Wish me luck.

On other notes I was rather proud of myself for working out that Sherlock would use the abductor that looked similar in his plans to fake his own death so hurrah for me.

So the rest of my school holiday, the final few hours will be spent doing prep, packing my stuff and if I'm really really really lucky I might get to relax. Who knows?????
