    Well. What do I know? EP 3 was a big improvement- an involving story and an excellent villain in Moriaty. Good dialogue- starting to find out more about Sherlocks character and motivations. Great fun. I want more.
    Still say EP2 was a bit shit though.

  • Field Theory: Gruts,

    "Yes! Thunderpants are '90s. They'll probably come back in in about five years, but at the moment, it's all a bit too painful. But that's Thunderpants' style, and it's obviously something that works for their customers. I imagine they're quite popular in Wellington."

    Ouch. And here I was feeling all groovy gold prancing about the streets in my Thunders. I have tried Farmers styles honest.The reason I switched from Farmers to TPs is because of the elastic- within a month everything was roaming free in there- moving in uncomfortable directions. I will obviously have to switch back pronto lest the offending items are spotted from one of those special fashion copters, scanning washing lines with a telescopic lens and then printing those 'shame sheets' comparing offenders to people from 'Wellington.' Talk about kiss of death.

    Also:Are Thunderpants Grunge undies then? Should I shave my sideburns off?

    Yours,
    Confused.

  • Field Theory: Gruts,

    Yes! to Thunderpants for men. Some of the wacky colours do look a bit like little boys grundys but the elastic stays firm and the support remains strong...plus they are made in NZ. Most comfy I have ever owned.

    Don't want to be too much a negative nelly with all the Sherlock drooling, but halfway through the second one now, the casting is great, characters fun and camerawork just so modern and zippy BUT I can't help but think the whole thing is like an extended episode of Castle or Monk or something with just as many silly plot holes. A bit shallow for me but then maybe I'm missing the point.
