I love how Ben just instantly replies to anyone who mentions Martin, and also that he is not afraid of bringing him up over and over again in the space of ten minutes!
Lara Pulver: (on Irene Adler) She’s a very flawed, damaged, fearful woman and she has this wonderful mask that’s solid, that’s always got her to where she is in life. And then she meets this man, and they see each other. But it’s that he’s flawed as well. It’s a love story between the two. It’s like looking in the mirror, in that sense.
Mark Gattis: (on Sherlock and Irene’s love story) What I love about it is it’s so complicated. That’s what’s thrilling about it. She’s gay, he’s not interested in anything apart from brainwork but something happens. It doesn’t actually have to be as mundane as love story. It’s much more interesting than that.
Benedict Cumberbatch: (on Sherlock and Irene’s love story) It falls in the vein of you know, classical English romances in a way: the repression of emotion, the idea that it’s there but it’s not. It doesn’t have to be spoken. That’s a great thing to be able to play as an actor so it’s a joy.

I love the chemistry between Irene and Sherlock...
Me too
Me too
Me : "hmm... The volume is really low. Maybe i should wore headphones"
Puts on headphones, the crowd clapping for Mrs. Hudson, i'm suddenly deaf o_o
next time I'll read comments beforehand because I did exactly the same... And now I need to check my hearing :DDD
IRENE NEEDS TO COME BACK IN S4. Scandal in Belgravia es my favorite episode. It just touches you idk, makes you see Sherlock cares for the first time, it makes you see he actually got feelings
but...he cares all the time
Marisol1711 she was mentioned in tonight's episode season 4 episode 2, but she does need to come back to.
Marisol1711 ah me too!
i agree with you...she has to come back! But he cares...he cares about john...all the time...special example: the scene where john is in the fire and sherlock saves him...
also he cares about mary and misses hudson...
Very very close but not
So glad Una Stubbs got recognition for being the best Mrs. Hudson. I love her so much, she's *adorable*. :)
"Martin, hobbling around in the woods of New Zealand" ahhaahhahahaha!
Reference to The Hobbit
I loved what Mark Gatiss said.He has the perfect understanding of Sherlock!!! It'd be a sin to compare a normal love story to what Sherlock and Irene had.That's a kind of a divine intellectual bond
It was never a real love story between Sherlock and Irene, may be a relationship on the same intellectual mutual level also called "sapiosexual" when someone is attracted to the intelligence of the other.
volume levels are so low! :(
I put my headphones on. That might help. :-)
Elle Shell headphone's on, volume's up, suddenly they're clapping their hands for Mrs. Hudson. RIP my ears.
Hmm, that's odd. I didn't have a problem with it when I put my headphones on. So sorry EMKT EF Swara. :-(
Elle Shell LOL it's okay, Elle Shell, dont worry bout it :)
Oh good. I thought that was on my end.
That episode was my favourite to date, they really picked the perfect actress for adler, mind blowing. Very well written.
"there is massive female fanbase out there"
*female fanbase laughing nervously from their chairs"
Thats a beautiful description of Irene in the actresses words. And how she describes how Irene and Sherlock SEE each other. Really good interview!
"We had a dashing young Sherlock Holmes..."
"Then we fired him..."
"THAT'S why Martin was so angry on the first day of work..." XD
benedict: so she's like a sort of mother figure to me on set
everyone: oooooohhhh!!
haha
As a HUGE fan of the original stories, I just have to express my utter appreciation for this series! BBC has done an amazing job, and I can't wait to see what is coming next!
Everyone's complaining about the volume, while I'm just here not even listening at 100% with headphones
I love how Ben mentions Martin almost every time he talks :)
I just love the utter intelligence in that room
I find it adorable that Benedict and Una have such a close relationship c:
I can't watch anymore Benedict videos because I get sad that I'll never meet him! He's such a great actor, he portrays all his characters so perfectly.
Sherlock's a really interesting person: He doesn't care about that Molly loves him, but he's like YOU HURTED MY LANDLADY, PREPARE TO DIE!!!
Why must Sherlock care about Mollys love for him? He is not interested in her. Girlfriends are not really his area, should be actually known since the first episode.
Just saying.
Everyone claps so hard for dear Una :P
My wish is that someone would write a romantic comedy for Benedict & Louise
because they have wonderful on screen chemistry and it would be nice seeing them play characters who get together. Please forgive the typo in the previous message. I left out the word "be" between to & exactly.
When they were talking about Martin it really touched my heart.
@6:32 At first, I heard Mark said "HE's gay, SHE's not interested.." when it's actually the other way round. LMAO XD
I really loved Sherlock and Irene's relationship. It was kind of an intellectual love. But those two will never be 'together' because neither of them are of that temperament, which kind of breaks my heart, because the chemistry was UNBELIEVABLE
Oh my gosh, I loved the Sherlock/Mrs. Hudson relationship before, but now I know their in-real-life relationship, it all makes so much sense. alksjdfha the emotions.
Im a huge Johnlock fan, but god damn the chemistry between Irene ans Sherlock is amazing... thats the truth.
Omg, omg, omg, omg!!! I can't wait!! I love them soooo much.
I love how they explain Sherlock sexuality and his relationship with Irene.
this was the best episode so far i think. beautiful ending.
The best episode yet! Bring on series 3!!!
"Your pupils were dilated "
dilated*
"Easy- peasy"? COULD I LOVE HIM ANY MORE?
Damn. Benedict is ROCKIN' that lavender polo! Yum.
I can't believe,that this blonde man is my Sherlock ;(
I can barely hear it on my speakers, but it's relatively loud on my headphones. So if you're having audio problems, try your headphones.
next time put the mics ON the actors. Sheesh. Can't hear them hardly at all.
Now why can't all her interviews be like that!?!
I know, I felt a little confused by their relationship, too! But mostly, I couldn't decide what I thought about the end of the episode--whether it showed if Sherlock actually loved her, or what exactly he felt for her. I still am not entirely sure, but I think he did--it was just never spoken or acted upon. Ultimately, it's a lot easier for me to relate to John and Sherlock's relationship, too, rather than Sherlock's with Irene.
Can I just say, why was Una not invited onto the stage? She was in this episode too you know.
Vicky Lee so was Martin
@@julianelovesyou1130 but he was in New Zealand not in the audience 😉
@KT. Adler is perfect for Sherlock. Listen to the interview w/ Lara's insights into her own character: Irene is flawed, damaged, frightened, wearing a mask--the makeup, the nudity, the mobile phone that can't be "interpreted." Sherlock is the same: the long coat, the scarf, the hair that covers his face, the intellect that pushes out sentiment. "They saw each other," she said. "It was like looking in a mirror." Old cliche' about how women only like the bad guys applies as well to Sherlock.
Naturally, the episode keeps us in suspense. A good story does. She whips him, gets her phone back, gets him to reveal the code, humiliates him in front of his brother, and if it weren't for his last-minute HUNCH, she'd have gotten away with it. So, yes, Sherlock's intuition (it was a lucky GUESS, not logic) triumphed, along with his rejection of her. But then he rescues her. Out of sentiment or oneupsmanship? It ain't logical reasoning. Why not let the bitch get executed? Sherlock's human. Yay.
Ah wow what a rare and wonderful splendor! Someone other than the two of us were actually following along! A pleasant surprise if there ever was one on the Internet of all things, nice to see others taking an interest.
I absolutely agree. No one in my school knows Sherlock and the one friend I told that I'm a fangirl of Benedict Cumberbatch gave me a look like "Are you serious?". There aren't many fans of Sherlock in germany. But it's the best Sherlock Holmes ever!!!
(P.S. Sorry if my English isn't very good, I'm german.)
For me it was the writing and the direction and Martin Freeman the first three seasons.
Martin does at least. Benedict mentioned it in an interview. Someone asked about fanfiction and fanart and Ben said something along the lines of "Martin knows more about it that I do. He's like 'look at this Tumblr!',"
Thank you for the answer. I was just afraid that no one understands me because I can't remember all the grammar rules. But I'm the best at the subject English in my class. No one understands why I just love this TV show.
Yes, Vocal, he sure does. ;) Completely. As I said, "Showing her that she's not [in charge of her feelings] is to rip off ALL of her masks." The ending was brutal and retaliatory. Rescuing her, then, is another act of dominance: the brute becomes the savior. He's still on top. Hence his satisfied smile at the end. He's got her cellphone (which has so many meanings--the plucked rose?), and we don't know what else. "The woman. THE woman." Tossing it in the air and catching it. Brilliant ep.
It's there but it doesn't have to be spoken. British society in a nutshell.
That's exactly how it is here! I told my friend about how awesome Sherlock is, how she should watch it, how fantastic the actors are, and she just gave me a weird look and said "Uhh... Okay, calm down. It's just a TV show." (And your English seems perfect to me by the way!)
"And Martin.. Running around a wood in New Zealand. But he is here in spirit." HAHAH
WHERE IS MORIARTY !
It's my favourite cause I get to see Benedict basically naked x3
Nah seriously it's an awesome episode, I love it the most because you see Sherlock, not exactly fall in love, but begin to have feelings for Irene and I think it's just beautiful.
He already does love her. In the way he loves his other "friends." Which is to say in a way that he won't recognize as loooove, but does treat as loyalty... and need. But he's not and never will be IN love with Molly.
"Sentiment is a chemical defect found in the losing side." Sherlock to Irene. Naturally he's angry at her and redeeming himself in front of his brother who accused him of naivete'. He may not be a virgin, but I suspect whatever sexual ventures he had in the past were experimental and self-seeking. Why would Molly want such an indifferent lover? Why would Sherlock be motivated to sleep with her? For him it would serve no purpose except to gain something else. "I took your pulse."
thanks for replying. i can't believe i didn't recognize her in the belgravia episode. it was just when she swung her hair back in this interview that it struck me as familiar.
I disagree with you too. She was amazing and played her role to the fullest. To me, and this is only my humble opinion she is the best Adler ever played
I LOVE Sherlock...i may actually cry if we have to wait 11 months for the next series.....
Yes...Yes they are very very nice to look at....**drools**
Wonderful episode, absolutely wonderful. The ending actually moved me, and I'm not easily moved at all.
I wish Martin was there, or at least heard everything they said about him :)
I found I had to listen through headphones to hear this properly. Too quiet otherwise.
am i the only one that find it a bit ironic that the british filminstitutes videos' doesn't even have good sound?
pfft Benedict looks so uncomfortable when the interviewer mentions how much people liked the bed sheet scene.
Addendum (second reply)... the show never led us to believe she beat him (at least that's how I read it). However... however... she DID GET to him. In some small way. ;) And that makes the story more interesting than if he had remained coldly deductive throughout. (The "hound" got to him, too. We need to know that he is human.)
It's something I always wonder with the show, for example that pose he always seems to have, hands together pressing against his lips, the lack of regard he has for time, holding a conversation with himself; are these moments he's actually running around his mnemonic palace, piecing shreds of evidence together?
I think its one of his deceptions, when he looks like hes doing nothing; he's definitely up to something, its like watching a great mentalist at work.
I still say they, Sherlock & Irene, did it after he rescued her. His reaction in the window said it all...The Schmuck.
I like this interview. It kept my interest. And Benedict was really sweet, him talking about Una Stubs like that -3
May I just thank both you and textcavation for a wonderful read? A very pleasant way to spend five minutes. Your conversation was fascinating.
YES. It is one of the four major fandoms on Tumblr.
@BritishFilmInstitute Thank you for posting this. :-)
I'm glad I'm not the only person that had trouble hearing this, genuinely thought I'd gotten really bad ear damage, but no. Just god ol' crappy audio recording.
MARK AND HIS 3PIECE SUIT AND HANDKERCHIEF.
TYPICAL ENGLISHMAN.
I was always pretty confused about Irene. I still am... but this helps.
the volume is exactly the same as the bfi website; I guess that explains it and personally, I think it helps to keep the spoilery as inconspicuous as possible.
That's where the got the idea for the end of the pool scene from, then...
What highlight does Benedict use?
These interviews are neeeveerrr long enough.
True enough. Irene wears mask upon mask upon mask. That's why she is so fascinating to him.
I just want to hug all of them
3:58 Dear Godtiss that woman's laugh x""D
god i almost cried about the mother figure bit about una (:
She's by far the best Irene Adler!! this is my fav episode.
It's so annoying how the interviewer keep stressing the "love story" angle... it was barely a love story. I love the character analysis with the masks and stuff, the "love" angle was 0.1 percent of the interaction between Sherlock and Irene. I wish people wouldn't oversimplify it into a plain ol' romance.
Okay, I simply must get the uncut UK version of Sherlock because I hate the idea that I've missed out on some important tidbits of information!
Did Benedict really just use the phrase "easy peasy?" *melts*
this is my favourite episode why don't people like it?
Brilliant interview, thanks for sharing that!!!
It's been said before and it will be said again, but Benedict Cumberbatch is lovely.
benedict cumberbatch is my roll model and he made me realize i wanted to become a detective i like horror it doesnt freak me out and i like helping people hunt down bad people or killers and i absoulutly love him hes my person i think about when i think about happinessand i LOVE horror so i think the job fits
A lot people that aren't from NZ or Australia don't know what NZ is for some reason, but these guys (Benedict lmao) do so that's all that matters :D
I think you are using the term "beat" in a way I never intended. Didn't you see my first reply? "Rescuing her, then, is another act of dominance: the brute becomes the savior. He's still on top. Hence his satisfied smile at the end. He's got her cellphone (which has so many meanings--the plucked rose?), and we don't know what else. "The woman. THE woman." Tossing it in the air and catching it. Brilliant ep." By "beat" do you mean she impressed him? That's what I meant by "got to him."
You just made my life. Thank you
"The repression of emotion, and the idea that it's there but it doesn't have to be spoken." ::cough:: Sherlock/Watson ::coughcough:: ;D
Reminder: turn your speakers down again when you leave this video
try captions it helps
Yet the captions are APPALLING. With such rich material, please get an actual human being to transcribe. Whatever auto program you're using is rubbish.
English isn't my first language and hearing at this low is just like I'm deaf, can't make out anything @.@
But I guess seeing Benedict is enough for me :)
N'aww, Benny blowing Una a kiss. Bless.
Aww Ben! You are a dashing Sherlock Holmes!
She obviously leaves a some what positive impression on him, what I meant by "beat" is that the show tries to portray the conclusion (before Sherlock's revelation) as a victory for Adler over Sherlock and Mycroft; that she outwitted them. The powerful revelation then hits that Sherlock has her figured out (presumably from very early on), to me represents a victory of logical reasoning over flirtatious manipulation.
@VamLoveAndKisses I know the feeling! I haven't been back to college yet, but knowing its attendees, I'm having images of "Believe in Sherlock" posters and debate groups being thrown up all over campus when we resume on Monday.
I don't think anything official has ever been said, but I know the character in general has always been suspected to have Aspergers, and in Hounds of Baskerville, John says it to Lestrade shortly after he shows up. But I say it's experience speaking because I have it, and too many people in my life treated me just like they do him, so what I see him do and how I see him react is exactly what I've spent the latter half of my 20's and all of my 30's having to learn to not do... all too familiar.
