Finally watching Sherlock S2 -- there was an extreme close-up where I thought "Hey, Benedict Cumberbatch has a coloboma in one eye," only I didn't think that exactly because I couldn't recall the word 'coloboma.' Someone else spotted it, but now that I look more closely, I think it's a heterochromia above the right pupil. Yeah, overthinking this.

green_trilobite spotted Alonzo Frame/George. No missing those ears.

Hey, isn't that Chipo Chung (Chantho, Fortune-teller) as a reporter? There are only a dozen actors in England, aren't there?

I think you're right, in this picture (http://www.imagebam.com/image/92ed1f172582194) if looks like heterochromia. Not that I went lookng.

OK, I went looking. (http://fuckyeahcumberbatcheyes.tumblr.com/)

Is this the modern, as opposed to the SteamPunk, Sherlock? I've only ever seen the "Hound of the Baskervilles" episode; when I was entertaining Dee's cat "Baby". We'd just watched the weirdo "Superman Returns" movie together but he got up and left as soon as it seemed that it was something to do with a hound!

What a very pale boy this Sherlock is.

'The Hounds' is ok, but most of the other ones are better. Apart from the obvious reasons to watch it, 'A Scandal In Belgravia' features reference to some of the untold stories, including "The Geek Interpreter."

"The Geek Interpreter"?! Bwah-ha-ha! An Autistic Whisperer so to speak?

The most interesting thing in "Hound" for me was that Sherlock seemed to decide to take the case after the client said "They were the footprints of a gigantic hound, Mr. Holmes!": as if he was only taking the case because it had dialogue from the Canon!

We only see the start of "The Geek Interpreter" - three comic book fans explain they run a website that discusses the storylines of comics "but now the stories keep coming true."


Holmes took the Hound case because the guy specifically said "hound" rather than the more modern "dog" and he wondered why. Also I think he wanted the excuse to go to Baskerville because he'd suspected the connection with Bluebell.

Yes, it was cool that the "glow-in-the-dark" gene, which is one of the first artificially spliced genes and which we already have in some lab-rabbits, would seem to give a hell-hound verisimilitude.

Hm - looks like greencarnations has also (http://greencarnations.tumblr.com/post/15555318218/i-knew-it-mild-heterochromia-been-saying-it-for) revised his/her opinion to heterochromia.
