A little late to the Sherlock party - just finished series 2.

Ok, I kinda get the Benedict Cumberbatch thing (I've seen the Molly kiss on youtube), but for me.........it would have to be Moriarty.

I think I need a cold shower.....

I would have to agree.

I'm in Team Watson here. I went all wobbly when he pulled rank at Baskerville.

Me next in the cold shower!

I'd rather Sherlock (or even Mycroft) than Moriarty. Shudders I think I'd even rather Mrs Hudson...

Deadly serious. I think I may be sectionable though. I have had some strange crushes in the past. First crush I ever had was on Wesley Crusher so I clearly have issues...

YABVU - I've seen that Molly kiss too several times

YANBU at all. Mind you, my own order of preference would run Mycroft, Moriarty, Lestrade (Lestade? Anyway, sexpot Rupert Graves), Sherlock.

No, not getting the Moriarty thing I'm afraid. And I think he's very overplayed by Andrew Scott - just too far on the side of hammy

But thanks for reminding me about the Molly kiss - off to fetch a cold flannel....

It's Sherlock, then Moriarty, then possibly Lestrade.

They're all very plain and I would turn them all down.

...but I do love a bad boy....and a bad boy with a brain! (in my fantasy world!), I'm not sure what it is; the eyes, the mouth, the voice, his demeanour........I so would!

Moriarty is way better than Sherlock. Better actor, better character, better looking...

Sorry Wullie!

Actually a friend of mine went out with Moriarty when we were about 15. For ages I couldn't think where I recognised him from. School discos.

I generally go for the villian in any given TV show/movie, but I get the "fanny gallops" (LOVE THAT!) for Benedict Cumberbatch. The things I would do to that man...

Mind you, you'd have to make sure you'd signed up for the right series. Mycroft in the original adaptations - NO!
