Gatiss<\/b>: Okay guys, this special is complicated but we\u2019ve all got our challenges as actors.<\/p>\n

Gatiss<\/b>: Ben, you\u2019ll be playing a more traditional Holmes as Sherlock imagines himself in his mind palace, only like 250% more gay despite being Victorian times, and although you aren\u2019t in every scene you do know everything that happens<\/i>\u00a0in every scene because it\u2019s all in your head so bear that in mind, also your brain is repressing key information from you so we\u2019ll have to show that both textually and subtextually now and then through your facial expressions and reactions, I know you can handle it.<\/p>\n

Gatiss<\/b>: Martin, you\u2019ll be playing four John Watsons: the traditional misogynist crotchety Victorian one (also closeted, but like, MORE), the modern one you normally play, the modern one in Sherlock\u2019s mind so like you have to play it as he sees you, not as you actually are, so like keep the eye fucking but remember it\u2019s not because YOU want to do it, it\u2019s because SHERLOCK wants you to do it? And also there\u2019s the Victorian one but who is aware that he\u2019s just a device in Sherlock\u2019s brain, yeah I know it sounds fucked up but I saw Fargo, I know you got this.<\/p>\n

Gatiss<\/b>: Andrew, I mean, I know we\u2019ve already pushed you to make every cameo more gay, but like, this time we need you to be a Str8Up Porn Star, like the suggestive lines about guns aren\u2019t enough, we kind of need you to suck on one? Other than that it\u2019s pretty much how you usually play Jim, but again, just reeeeeally up the homo because heh we\u2019re in Sherlock\u2019s head, so, you know, super rainbow sparkle time up in there\u2026also please see the wardrobe department, they need your cup size.<\/p>\n

Gatiss<\/b>: Amanda, so modern Mary is the same whether we\u2019re talking about the real version or the one in Sherlock\u2019s mind because he still doesn\u2019t know who she really is, but Victorian Mary is a bit trickier, see, Sherlock still doesn\u2019t know your backstory so he\u2019s guessing at what\u2019s going on with you and how you\u2019re feeling, so you can\u2019t quite act from a place of \u201cwhat would Mary do\/say,\u201d it\u2019s more like \u201cwhat would Sherlock think Mary would do\/say when really he hasn\u2019t got a fucking clue,\u201d hahaha good luck with that, you can do it, oh also up the snark please, we love the snark.<\/p>\n

Gatiss<\/b>: I will be wearing a fat suit.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
