My Review: Well what can I say?!
I, and the rest of the nation have been anticipating the return of Sherlock for about 18 months now and boy am I so glad it is back! It is as snazzy as ever and, dare I say it, perhaps even sharper and on form than it ever has been. With a second series its able to include little in jokes and side remarks that just make every scene. Naked Sherlock... in a sheet... in Buckingham Palace?! Ridiculously brilliant.
Basically if you haven’t seen Sherlock - where have you been? You’ve been missing out on an exquisite drama that is so clever it hurts. In a good way!
Score: 9.5/10
