A-hem...

Uhm, I don't know what happened, but I've kinda been sucked into the bottomless pit of the Sherlock Holmes fandom. >_> I've only watched 4 episodes so far (2 from the Russian series and 2 from the Granada one) and, damn, they're good. <_< Jeremy Brett is brilliant and hilarious when he acts like an excited, hyper little boy. Also, there's so much fanart I could cry. *_*

Anyway. Going to Switzerland tomorrow. I hope things work out, I can't wait to get out of here.

I've just watched it! I was laughing so hard at the beginning when Pietro shouts "Puttana!" ("whore") at his sister over and over. XD Sadly, many Italian men are still like that. -__- The Italian dialogues were perfect, though. :)

Also, do you know if mafia was mentioned in the book too? I mean, of course it already existed at the time, but it would be kinda sad to find it in a Sherlock Holmes novel, it would mean it was already "famous" (or rather infamous) back then.

I also laughed at Holmes speaking Italian, he's got such a strong accent. XD

Yeah I don't speak a word and I could tell his accent was attrocious, lol. Umm, I'm not sure about the mafia... When I read the story I could tell you, but curiousfunk prolly knows. ACD was pretty good about knowing about random stuff that was going on at the time, esp evidenced by the Study in Scarlet with the whole mormon thing. XD
