Welcome!

This is sherlockbbc, a community for fans of Sherlock, the modern BBC adaptation of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes stories. We're a bit late getting started, but we aim to fill the Dreamwidth community's need for a place to post Sherlock news, episode commentary, and fanworks.

The last of the three 90-minute movies, "The Great Game," will air Sunday, August 8 at 9 PM GMT. We will have a watchpost up for reactions and general squealing. Until then, have fun!

Community Rules

1. Play nice. No bashing other people's opinions, ships, or work. If your kindergarten teacher would be ashamed of you, it's a bad idea.

2. All posts should be mainly about Sherlock. We're happy to have production news and promotion news about Sherlock (if you bring the news that the BBC has commissioned more episodes, that'd be fantastic), but a long and detailed post about Martin Freeman and Benedict Cumberbatch's new projects would probably best be posted in actor love communities. Likewise for posts that deal with other areas of the Sherlock Holmes mythos.

3. Use lj-cuts and tags.

4. Place spoilers and adult or triggery material behind a cut, with a warning above the cut stating what the post contains.

5. If you post fanfiction, please use a header. A sample header is included below.

<b>Title:</b><br /><b>Author:</b><br /><b>Pairing(s):</b> (if applicable)<br /><b>Rating:</b><br /><b>Warnings:</b> (if applicable)<br /><b>Disclaimer:</b><br /><b>Summary:</b><br /><b>Author's Note:</b> (if desired)<br />

6. RPF is allowed; tinhattery is not. Please use good judgment.

7. PLAY. NICE.

If you have questions, comments, or concerns, please leave a note on this post. Ditto if you would like to affiliate.

Done!

Thanks for creating the tags! I'd wanted the pairing: john/lestrade/sherlock tag for a previous story, though, not my most recent post, so could you possibly remove that tag from here? (I'd do it myself, but apparently regular users can't delete tags from their posts.)

Whoops. This is what I get for trying to do stuff before caffeine. Sorry!

No worries, and thanks again!
