      ah yes it was VERY VERY common for two men to be soulmates like this in the victorian era in higher society, much less in the working class (as you could imagine)
      what WAS unusual was the behaviour of the two, since sherlock is such a strange man and watson is a pretty respectable doctor, who stunted his professional work just to run around investigating
      not only that, but holmes was really the first to be going CSI of any modern sort
      and THATS why they get weird looks and judgements from other people, and why the modern sherlocks delve more into homosexuality, since capturing this deep connection would translate to the modern ideas of a romantic relationship

      @@One.Zero.One101 Absurd. Brett is extraordinarily overrated in this role. In fact, I think a lot of his 'popularity' is because of all this ridiculous gay subtext. Holmes and Watson were Victorian gentlemen. Neither would have had any interest, or tolerance, for homosexuality. The mere HINT would probably summon a prompt pummeling. And Watson was clearly an ardent, if somewhat naive, admirer of the female of the species. Brett was simply not right for the role. He in no way resembled the physical description. And the Holmes of the books was eccentric...but Brett, by way of contrast, is WEIRD. And, frankly, a repellent figure. His odd clammy, unhealthy pallor, his vocal tone, his facial expressions...I've read every Holmes story, multiple times, and this man is simply NOT Holmes...The fact that he is so heavily hailed in the role tells you a lot more about our contemporary mores and fetishism for anything perverse than it does about the character, himself...

Annnnd Jeremy found himself launched INSTANTLY UPRIGHT ( by the power of actor outrage ) and he said, " My Denver Sole slid into his lap!" Jeremy was .. well alot things happening there, ykwim? bemused spontaneity, surprised, and epiphany! ' thats whats missing!' that impulsive compulsive thing that takes hold, the drive behind addiction.. yeah. sometimes the guy would just start climbin a wall, " Ohhh, check it , yo" and Watson, " I say, Brah! what the devil up with that?" lol ♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡

    just searched up Jeremy Brett in the middle of watching this.
    he said that Sherlock's sudden burst of energy then periods of lethargy fascinated him and scared him at the same time. he is playing a character that he founds to he quite similar to him, commenting on how the character is like a "sponge", add to that his own mental and physical health. apparently, in the middle of the series, he has to be perscribed by lithium tablets because of his mental condition. in turn, that took a toll on his physical health, which is evident in his appearance, especially on the latter part of the series. at one point, he even fainted on set.
    all of which makes Jeremy's performance commendable. quite frankly, he might be my new favorite Holmes. i really need to watch this series now.

      It is possible for two men to be close friends and love each other without being gay. Brett went on record saying he wanted to portray that healthy friendship because there are far too few healthy role models for these friendships on tv in the 80s.

    The way everyone is reacting to this, I wonder how you all would react if you knew that Sherlock actually cried a bit (not a tear, but misty eyes) when Watson got shot in the books.
    At least we got Watson's reaction when Sherlock was almost killed in a beating (also happens in the books).
