Sherlock: The Sign of Three (2014 Colm McCarthy, scr Gatiss Moffat Thompson)

Watson and Mary's wedding. Sherlock works out Major Sholto is going to be killed (he's in the original novel 'The Sign of Four'). No idea how Holmes and Watson manage to get so drunk on the stag do. Loved the scene where Sherlock's 'interviewing' the women who have all been on a date with a 'ghost'. Largely played for comedy, including that with a ghoulish kid. The play on titles alludes to a sweet final moment.
