I asked one of the guys there where in the flat it was used, and he said in the hallway by the bathroom. I pointed out this scene in HLV, and he said that was the decision of the lighting director. As we know, everything in this show is deliberate. The amount of work that has to go into an incredibly short amount of time means that every decision has to count. They wouldn\u2019t go through the trouble of bathing that hallway in yellow light for nothing. In short, Jealous John is canon and they want us all to know that.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>iam1895locked: We all know that the scene in HLV where John displays his totally platonic happiness for his bro Sherl hooking up with hot babe from his wedding is 1000% more green than it has any right to be.\u00a0 But really though, this is Jealous John at its finest.
