Sherlock Anylasis

Sherlock Anylasis

In the episode so far, we have met a character called Soo-Lin, who works in the natural history museum. We see her enter the artefacts storage room of the museum and spot a large statue in the corner. Once she has returned her tea pot and turns and goes to leave, she notices that someone has untied the statue. She goes the investigate and when she reveals the statue she lets of a terrified scream, but as a viewer we don't get to see what made her scream. We then cut to a story of a banker, Eddie, rushing home to get something, he storms into his flat in a blind panic and searches frantically for something. Eventually he finds his handgun. Just at this moment tribal drums being to play loudly, again freaking out the banker and casing him to barricade himself into his bedroom. This story then cuts to one of the main characters, John, shopping for food in tescos. This then cuts between our hero sherlock locked into hand to hand combat with a anonymous. This cut then repeats between the two narratives and eventually sherlock knocks out the shiek. Eddie then returns home without shopping as he had an 'argument' with the chip and pin machine. When he returns there is no sign that Sherlock was just In a fight, except the shirks knife is lying  on the floor 

So far in the story the viewer may think that these 3 stories seem unrelated and irrelevant. But I think that there is a clue in the title of the episode 'the blind banker' that the bankers story is vital to the unfolding story.

Next in the story I think that the banker is going to be found dead in suspicious circumstances, or to have committed suicide. Then Sherlock will be called in to investigate the crime and will find that Soo-Lins story is related to the bankers story. I think this because the 3 stories at the moment are so unrealated that they must link together at some point, otherwise why would they bother to include it. 

Soo Lin- 'Pale, young, beautiful', works at the british museum. May have possible conflicts relating to the bankers possible death, may know some answers and therefore theatened by the murder. Wants: to know all there is to know about ancient history. Needs: to relax and leave her work at work.

Andy- 'Sexy in a geeky way', works at the british museum with Soo-Lin. I don't think that he will be involved much in the plot of the story and may not be featured again, only there to show that Soo-Lin is commited to her work. 

Sherlock- Obviously good in combat sitiuations, may have had previous training. Will be involved heavily in the plot as the whole series is named after him. If he is anything like other Sherlock Homes charecters, he will be intelligent and witty, but also a think in a diffrent way to everyone else allowing him to solve cases that others cant.

John- 'Self consious' John is obviously easily embarassed, which is backed up by the fact that he becomes self consious after not being able to scan items on a self check-out. I think that John is going to be Sherlock's 'sidekick' and help him solve cases. Although he may not be the brightest crayon, he will come up with ideas that spark soff something for Sherlock. Wants: to be as cleaver and intuative as Sherlock. Needs: to be his own person.

There are lots of constraints for writers. I think that the biggest is the fact that writters may not easily be able to get there original idea across to a producer, and therefore onto the screen. This is because some producers are afraid that their ideas won't attract attention and therefore won't make any money. This means that the producer changes the idea, and makes it into something that it wasn't, and then then the writers original idea becomes lost into something that was made to sell.
