me, with english as not my primary language, trying to follow sherlock when he blurts out the whole sequence of deductions at the speed of light:

"...I received a telegram from my friend imploring me to return to Donnithorpe, and saying that he was in great need of my advice and assistance. Of course I dropped everything and set out for the North once more"
Holmes College Adventures Masterpost Chapter 2: part 1 - part 2 - part 3 - part 4 - part 5 - part 6 - part 7 - part 8 AO3
thoughts:
Now, Holmes mentions that he "went up to his London rooms". He also mentions (MUSG) that "when he first came to London he had rooms in Montague Street". Now I see several possibilities here: 1. Holmes moved to study in London, had the Montague rooms for his two years of college and stayed there for a couple years more, until he moved to Baker Street. 2. Holmes was studying elsewhere and moved to London after he dropped out of university, and the "London rooms" he mentions in GLOR were some other rooms he rented for vacation (?) 3. He moved to London after he dropped out, and the rooms meant he stayed at Mycroft's place, but he didn't think this detail nessecary enough to mention.
There is no particular reason to choose the third one, but hey, I wanted to draw Mycroft.

the intro for the baker street file contains several quotes that feel like they're directed entirely at jeremy (which he definitely did not listen to at all):
"although this series is intended to be a straight and faithful adaptation of the sherlock holmes stories conan doyle's writings cannot obviously be regarded as holy writ; neither can this list be thought of as a set of absolute instructions."
"it is pointless to adhere slavishly on film to every word that doyle wrote."
"however it is important to know when (and why) we intentionally disregard what doyle writes."

another fun costume detail in granada holmes is in a scandal in bohemia (the first episode) he has nothing on his watch chain until he gets the sovereign from irene adler, when (as in the original story) he says he's going to put wear it there in memory of the occasion -- but while it never gets mentioned in the stories again, in the show he's wearing it (I believe) in just about every episode after for the entire rest of the series

This radio ep having a bunch of folk react in disgust to a cross dressing criminal (including a Remarkable amount of Ye Olde Homophobia) and Holmes going "well what about it? I've done it myself on occasion" "You do know that's illegal?" "Next time I'll tell you in advance so you can be sure to come by and arrest me" oh gay transgender sherlock holmes we're really fucking in it now

“You have formed a theory, then?”
“At least I have got a grip of the essential facts of the case. I shall enumerate them to you, for nothing clears up a case so much as stating it to another person, and I can hardly expect your co-operation if I do not show you the position from which we start.”
I lay back against the cushions, puffing at my cigar, while Holmes, leaning forward, with his long, thin forefinger checking off the points upon the palm of his left hand, gave me a sketch of the events which had led to our journey.“
Look, the scene that was the inspiration for Sydney Paget’s famous drawing of Holmes and Watson in the train! This one:

I don't believe so many people see Sherlock Holmes as neorotypical. The same Sherlock Holmes who gets bored so easily and yet once he finds something interesting, he will absolutely need to solve it. Sherlock Holmes, who just randomly infodumps on Watson about literal fucking mud, on multiple occasions. Sherlock Holmes who routinely fiddles with his violin and makes discordant noises. The same man who makes leaps of deduction which literally no one else sees, and can only understand when he takes them through every step of his analysis. The one and only Sherlock Holmes who collects random articles about people and hoards things with the vague hope that someday he might need the <insert thing here> again. The Mr. Sherlock "never a very sociable fellow" Holmes? Sherlock Holmes who will not clean his room, and makes up all sorts of excuses to divert Watson's attention, who hates anything being moved from its designated place, who is neat in thought and style, but stabs his letters to the mantelpiece. "He had a horror of destroying documents, especially those which were connected with his past cases..."(The Musgrave Ritual) Anyone? This ring a bell, oh venerated 'Holmes Scholar'? You are telling me people read the books and intentionally come to the conclusion that Sherlock Holmes is absolutely neurotypical and has no neurodivergent tendencies and symptoms at all? That most of these above examples are symptoms of Autism, ADHD, etc. just happens to be a coincidence? Huh. Guess people really are blind when they want to be.

ranging from his famous investigation of the sudden death of Cardinal Tosca—an inquiry which was carried out by him at the express desire of His Holiness the Pope—down to his arrest of Wilson, the notorious canary-trainer, which removed a plague-spot from the East-End of London.
HELLO???
No way we have been robbed of
An Exorcist-style Sherlock murder mystery involving the fucking POPE (?????) and what i can only assume would be scooby-doo-esque encounters with "demons"
A Contagion-style Sherlock conspiracy unraveling what I can only assume was a mass attempt to spread a zombie-like bird flu over the TRI. STATE. AREA East-End London
Watson you can't just drop this lore and leave it at that!!!!

Now, when I learned of the lie, however, I-I deliberately adopted a more sanguine mood.
