THE PILOT episode of Sherlock was only 55 minutes long, and although the script was expanded, and the action re-shot, much of the original dialogue remains unchanged. Below are a few examples of how the first pilot differed from the transmitted version of A Study in Pink.

  However, we'd like you to share the vole, so please feel free to email lynda@juniorgazette.net with your memories of Press Gang. We will publish our favourites on the site. The Editor's decision is final!

VOLE, SPIKE, BLINK & PING have all been adopted by StevenMoffat.net to support I CAN.
