    Your mention of psychopath or sociopath was interesting.
    Some time ago, there was a programme on TV about psycopaths. Unfortunately I don’t remember the title of the programme, or the chap who presented it, other than he was an American and was involved with medicine in some way.
    It was decided to take brain x-rays or scans of known…[Read more]

    Oh well, it seems that I am the only one who doesn’t like back breaking, dirty work like gardening.
    A tidy pretty garden is lovely – if someone else does it. *grins*
    My OH and I do attemept some, I prune and he mows the grass.

    I dislike housework a lot, but love a clean and tidy house so whats a person to do? Grin and bear it I guess.

    Yes as do I, and must admiot to feeling rather virtuous aftwards.

    I disagree about gardening and the Game of Thrones. So many people I know have watched it saying how brutal and bloody it is, not to mention sex scenes. Not my cup of tea either.
    However, each to their own I say. *big grin*

    Good point, and I think that you are right. it stands to reason that, if only in a small way, a writers characters will reflect him/herself at times.

    I started to but the violence got me down. I have my limits, hence – from what I have heard – I shall never see Game of thrones.

    I didn’t enjoy Happy Valley either, even after trying to watch the first episode twice, don’t know why. *scratches head*

    Ah now, poor Mycroft. He definitely loves his little brother, but like most genius’s he’s flawed – as is William
    Sherlock Scott.

    I finally got to the site you recommended and received a blow. I assumed – incorrectly – that the recording was an actual video – film.

    I’ve got this story on a CD, with Derek Jacobi as MR James, and the tale performed as a play with the BBC players.

    It’s wonderful. Thank you anyway.

    I’ve missed something here. An Operation? How goes it?

    I trust that you are on the mend and I echo @pruosolo.

    What’s wromg with it?
    Take cooking for instance. One takes the time to cook a tasty meal and it’s gone in about ten minutes? so much for creativity.

    As for rest, it’s boooring! Definitely NOt relaxing or mentally stimulating.
    If I can listen to a talking book (which I do a lot) whilst slaving away with the duster, broom, and…[Read more]

    Gardening? Is there anything worse than gardening?
    Well, yes, I suppose, washing up, making beds, housework generally – oh and cooking.

    I do like ironing though, do I pass? *grins*

    I think that Sherlock and the Doctor are similar.
    In DW 8 “Into the Dalek” when asked who Clara is, she replies” I’m his carer.” to which the Doctor replie:”Yes, she cares, so I don’t have to.”
    In Sherlock’s case, John cares, so that Sherlock doesn’t have to.
    We all know that this isn’t strictly true, both of them do care, but have trouble…[Read more]

    Hello there *waves* welcome to the forum.

    To your question. In my mind of course ‘she’ is. It seems that the Doctor mostly goes where he choses, but if the

    TARDIS feels he’s needed somewhere, she takes him there.

    She is his perfect. loyal and constant companion.

    She is the real STAR of the show. Without her, there’d be no Time Lord…[Read more]

    If you ever get the chance watch this series. ACD knew Doctor Bell,worked with him and used him as his model for Sherlock Holmees.
    Ian Richardson plays Bell. I saw a picture of the actual Doctor Bell and IR looks very like him.
