Holmes sweet Holmes

Finally watching the Sherlock DVDs and saw the first part of the first episode, which I'd previously missed.

It happens that I work very near to Baker Street, and travel along it fairly often.

Is is ridiculously pedantic of me to point out that their version of Baker Street is totally unlike the real one? Not quite sure where it is, I'd guess more towards Euston on the Bloomsbury side of Euston Road, with Euston Road crossing the end of the road to the right. Since Baker Street is twice as wide and one way throughout its length it's fairly obvious...

Apparently it was shot on Gower Street, which isn't far from Baker Street. Speedy's is a real business there, and has seen their customer base increase since the series first aired.

Yes, that's about the area I thought. It's years since I've been through Gower Street but I should have recognised it.
