Life long Sherlock Holmes fan. Was convinced I would not like the new show and that Jeremy Brett was the definitive Sherlock. But sat down to watch and by the end of the episode I was stunned. Cumberbatch was brilliant, the whole show was excellent...and I wanted the next episode NOW...
He seemed a bit vulnerable to me, in that alien/outsider way that's both funny and poignant. A bit of an arse, too, of course, but mostly because he didn't seem to understand how to human.

Been hooked ever since

I have always been a massive Sherlock Holmes fan, so the first episode had me grinning like an absolute fool!
