There was a photo in The Radio Times which made it looks exactly like Doctor Who.

I quite enjoyed it. The move to a contemporary setting was handled well, I think. Philip Davis as the cabbie was excellent. An understated but obviously quite disturbed character.

Unfortunately there appears to be only 3 episodes.

I enjoyed it, kept me glued to the screen till the credits rolled. While I agree the contemporary setting was handled well, Sherlock felt out of place at times. An over eccentric very fictional character in a world of normalilty around him seemed odd. Oh and of course the obligatory BBC naffness :roll: I have every intention to catch the rest of them (if I remember).

I enjoyed that.
I was expecting it to be Who-y, as I'd but it firmly in the Who/Robin Hood frame of BBC Actiony Drama. I didn't realise it was Moffat and Gatiss thing though.
I didn't hate Martin Freeman quite as much as I expected, although of course he still did The Look.
