So, now it appears that Sherlock Benedict and his sweetheart have tied the knot on Valentine's Day. Sherlock would never have wed, it would be too distracting. Look at the load of trouble Watson got into as a result of his marriage (in the series, anyway). But it appears that Bennie thinks he can do everything and anything. We'll see about that!

There has been a lot of hoopla about a Sherlock special "coming soon." I had my doubts that it was really coming soon and finally did hear today that it wouldn't be out until around Christmas. Bah, humbug!

Congratulations to Sir Benedict! But, wait...we can't call him Sir yet, he's *only* received a CBE honour from her majesty. But, can knighthood be far behind? Would he, at 39, be the youngest knight ever?

Surely not. "Ever" is a very long time. Men once became king by winning battles in their teens.
"It is required of every man that the spirit within him should walk abroad among his fellow-men, and travel far and wide."--Charles Dickens.
