I watched premieres a couple of times a year, decided to reconsider. I don't remember much, but it will be interesting to watch after season 4 (for some reason, the Armenian State decided to show the series AFTER season 4, and not earlier)
It's nice to see familiar situations from a new old angle 😂
Was the porter the boy from the wedding at 3*02 who was supposed to carry the rings?
Lestrade 's sideburns 🤣
I was talking to an empty chair, and I thought - has Watson become smarter? 😅
Watson's gestures, more precisely incorrectly said words, it
's funny that Sherlock does not believe in ghosts, while Conan Doyle was looking for evidence of the existence of the otherworldly.
"Even Lestrade would unravel the case" - I remembered the movie "The Death of Stalin ": "Even Stalin will notice the difference" " ' Even Stalin'? 'EVEN Stalin'? " 😂
"he said he was waiting for the devil. I wouldn't be surprised - there are all sorts of" 🤣
Interesting twist - that it was all in his head 😂
Mary broke the secret state archive without difficulty 😂
After watching season 4 , some words and phrases seem to acquire a double meaning 🤔
The best phrase of the series: "I'll take Mary home" "What?""Mary will take me home" "That's better" 😂

It was a beautiful series. Why not shoot a spin-off remake from this angle? It is possible as an animation to reduce costs - to review all the cases seen and not shown as in the 19th century, but in the style of this series 😁

Interesting facts and notes:
* The episode won an Emmy for Best TV Movie.
* Tyntesfield, an estate in the south-west of England, was used for Sir Eustace's house. It was also used for Watson's house.
* Mark Gatiss, co-creator of the series / co-screenwriter / performer of the role of Mycroft, stated about the series that it, or rather the final scene of the series, gives a ridiculous possibility that the entire series has so far been the narcotic imagination of Victorian Sherlock. Which means "we can do anything."
* Sir Eustace is played by British actor Tim McInnerney. He had previously been related to Sherlock or Conan Doyle: he played in 1985 in the series The Red Headed League of the TV series "The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes"; in 1997 he played in the film The Magic Story, where one of the characters was Conan Doyle; in 2005 he played in the TV movie "The Strange Story of Mr. Sherlock Holmes and Arthur Conan Doyle"; and in the same year that this episode was released, he played in the mini-series Houdini and Doyle.
* Sherlock suggests naming the bride's story 'The Monstrous Regiment'. So - "Infantry Ballad" is a novel by English writer Terry Pratchett from the DiscWorld cycle. There's a group of women pretending to be men in order to enlist in the military.
* When John and Mary fight at Sherlock's place at the beginning of the series, Sherlock plays the same music on the violin that he composed for them at 3*02 for the wedding.
* In the original, Emelia says the phrase "shotgun wedding" (“forced wedding". Literally, "a shotgun wedding." This is a situation where a girl gets pregnant out of wedlock, and an angry father threatens a guy with a shotgun so that he marries her in order to avoid her shame). This is a deliberate anachronism to show that events are not really in the past, because this phrase was not in the lexicon of the Victorian British. But the phrase was known in the United States, which gives Holmes a hint that "conspiracy" is widespread on different continents.
* Victorian Holmes is very similar in terms of clothes to Jeremy Brett, who played Holmes in the 1980s-90s TV series, which at different times had different names, the first of which was "The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes" (The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes). References to him are also the way Sherlock looks out of the window in the series finale, which is similar to the opening credits of Brett's series. And when we are shown the apartment of Victorian Holmes and Watson for the first time, the music playing is very similar to the theme music of Brett's series.
* At the end of the episode, before jumping into the waterfall, Holmes throws his hat into the waterfall, and Watson watches it fall. TVTropes considered this a reference to the Reichenbach series of Soviet Sherlock, where Professor Moriarty did something similar before the fight with Holmes.
