A Scandal in Belgravia Script (2011 v 2022)

Thank you to @loudest-subtext-in-tv for sharing the older versions of the “new” Sherlock Scripts

I ran the pair of scripts through Draftable to compare. Draftable highlights deleted parts in red, new parts in green, and blue parts have been moved in the script. I’m particularly interested in the change of Mycroft’s line on the plane:

and more changes are below the fold.

There were a few more - a reference to a client as an “enormously fat woman” politely changed to just “a woman”, Gatwick changed to Heathrow, and 007 spelled out more in full.

We had Sherlock scripts in the past!

Everyone has seen the Sherlock scripts the BBC just released, but something that might interest y'all is that we have had at least some version of a script for almost every episode for years before this! I've kept copies in a database I've been slowly working on since 2015, and we were only missing scripts for the unaired pilot, the mini-episode between S2 and S3 called Many Happy Returns, TAB (although iirc an anti-TJLCer bought a paper copy in an auction and afaik did not choose to share it online? link me if I'm wrong), T6T, and TFP.

There are different versions of scripts, so the versions we had before might not be the same as the ones that were just released. Any differences are potentially interesting!

I'm dealing with a family crisis rn unfortunately so it'll be a bit before I can read the new batch of scripts myself, BUT I would love it if any of you want to compare the scripts that were just released to the ones I have saved and let us know what you find! Are they the same, are they different?

ALSO, I have no idea where I got these because I've lost the paper trail over the years. If anyone wants to credit their origin, PLEASE let me know and I'll update this post.

LINK TO SCRIPTS WE HAD BEFORE 2022 -- tell me if this doesn't work, love ya, bye

i was only aware of this “comedy” article in my periphery for a while now, but since i only ever saw this comment referred to as “sherlock is a comedy” and not “sherlock is comedy show”, i understood it to mean sherlock is a comedy in the context that its not a tragedy. because those are the two types of stories. if its sad and there’s no happy ending, its a tragedy. everything else is a comedy, no matter how few “jokes” there are, or how unfunny you personally find it.

this is really only reinforced coming from moffat, who we have come to know is the responsible for most of the shows emotional moments. gatiss does the shock and horror bits, moffat does the love and romance. would you not argue that romance as a genre are usually comedy stories? isnt that the point of romance? to give characters their happy ending? but season 4 certainly felt like a tragedy didnt it? which means if a creator claims the show is a comedy, the story’s probably not over yet, right? hm?
