I always think that the Holmes of canon is really.. quite happy. He laughs and jokes and delights in the ridiculous. He’s almost never austere or rude. He’s described as having an easy manner; good with people, polite, witty, kind.. ‘You’re too kind’ is said so often.
Why is he always portrayed and played as so austere and cold?
“Mark adds: “Many people point out the drug use in Sherlock Holmes, but there are more references to Sherlock Holmes laughing than there are to taking cocaine or morphine but, oddly enough, people never think about that…”

I wholly agree. During a case he can be dismissive and frighteningly focused but he’s not this cold thinking machine....

See this is why Brett will always be my favourite, because he laughed and danced and smiled and it was wonderful.
