Description for "A Scandal in Belgravia": A case of blackmail threatens to topple the monarchy itself, but soon Sherlock and John discover there is even more to it than that. They find themselves battling international terrorism, rogue CIA agents, and a secret conspiracy involving the British government. But this case will cast a longer shadow on their lives than they could ever imagine, as the great detective begins a long duel of wits with an antagonist as cold and ruthless and brilliant as himself: Irene Adler (played by Lara Pulver).

I haven't seen "A Scandal in Belgravia" yet but it appears Irene tries everything to seduce Sherlock: Apparently she storked Sherlock's head with a whip and at one stage, appears in a thong. She also tampered with Sherlock's phone so that new text messages were announced with a sexual moan. As you can imagine this wasn't well recieved by a lot of the UK as some idiot parents let their kids watch the show...

I love how it's okay that footage of a man being beaten to death to air (Gaddafi), but a woman partially exposed in the context of a fictional story and it's an atrocity.
Anyway the fans don't seem to mind, it's just the parents who let their kids watch the show.

i'm just saying sherlock holmes isn't in the same class as south park or HBO shows. i don't think its an obvious uh oh to let kids watch it.
and why is fictionalized nudity different then non fiction?

Steven Moffat has dropped some clues on the stories that will be featured in the third series: Rat - There is a reference to a giant rat of Sumatra case (which has been adapted into a story by other authors) in "The Adventure of the Sussex Vampire" but other than that nothing. Wedding - Could be a reference to "The Sign of Four" (Where Watson gets married to Mary Morstan) or perhaps "The Noble Bachelor". Bow - Obviously "His Last Bow", which in terms of chronology is the final Holmes story, which means this could be the final series.
