Trivia
A scene in this episode shows John throwing a pen to Sherlock, who catches it without even looking at it. Benedict Cumberbatch caught the pen on the first take (using a mirror so he could see it coming), but the cameraman was too slow and missed it. He got it again on the third.

Goofs
Sherlock calls the ancient numbering system "Hang Zhou" pronouncing it as "Hang Zoo". The correct pronunciation would be closer to "Hahng Joe" which is something Sherlock should know.

Quotes
Sherlock Holmes: I need to get some air - we're going out tonight.
Dr John Watson: Actually, I've, uh, got a date.
Sherlock Holmes: What?
Dr John Watson: It's where two people who like each other go out and have fun?
Sherlock Holmes: That's what *I* was suggesting.
Dr John Watson: No, it wasn't. At least I hope not.

6/10

Dull

Sherlock makes this episode a little boring predicting everything. There is no suspense, no involvement at all. This is not a joke but this episode was dull.
