  • Telling the True Story
    Bachelor Thesis Telling The True Story Queerbaiting, representation, and fan resistance in the BBC Sherlock fandom Suzanne Frenk 613191 Algemene Cultuurwetenschappen (Culture Studies) School of Humanities Tilburg University Supervisor: Dr. P. K. Varis Second Reader: Dr. I. E. L. Maly August 18, 2017 Synopsis In this thesis, I follow an online community on Tumblr revolving around a self- proclaimed conspiracy theory called TJLC. This group is part of the broader community of fans of the BBC TV show Sherlock, and is focused on ‘The Johnlock Conspiracy’: the belief that the two main characters of the show, John and Sherlock, are bisexual and gay, respectively, and will ultimately end up as a romantic couple, which would make Sherlock a mainstream TV show with explicit and positive LGBTQIA+ representation. This visibility is especially important to LGBTQIA+ individuals within the TJLC community, who want to see their identities more often and more accurately represented on television. The fact that the creators of Sherlock, as well as several of the actors in the show, are either part of the LGBTQIA+ community themselves or known supporters, works to further strengthen TJLC’ers’ trust in the inevitable unfolding of the story into a romantic plot. The fact that the TJLC community is based on a conspiracy theory not only makes it a remarkable example of fan culture, but has also led to many close readings of the show and its characters – from the textual level to symbolism to the musical score – on a level that can often be seen as close to academic. These pieces of so-called ‘meta’ have led to many predictions about the direction of the show, such as the strong belief that ‘Johnlock’ would become real in season four of the series.

Fogle (M.A.) and Toni Maisano (B.A.) Abilene Christian University Human Communication Abstract In recent history, there have been movements advocating for conversation and change regarding traditional gender roles. As a central part of culture, British television has not escaped this scrutiny. BBC's crime drama Sherlock, directed by Steven Moffat, has received both critical acclaim and attention from the general public for its portrayal of women. In this essay, we venture into this conversation, and explore portrayals of existing gender roles and how the writers of the show choose to dissent with the audience's expectations of gender portrayal.

  • May 12 #1 Scuttlebutt from the Spermaceti Press
    Jan 12 #1 Scuttlebutt from the Spermaceti Press Sherlockians (and Holmesians) gathered in New York to celebrate the Great Detective's 158th birthday during the long weekend from Jan. 11 to Jan. 15. The festivities began with the traditional ASH Wednesday dinner sponsored by The Adventuresses of Sherlock Holmes at O'Casey's and continued with the Christopher Morley Walk led by Jim Cox and Dore Nash on Thursday morning, followed by the usual lunch at McSorley's). The Baker Street Irregulars' Distinguished Speaker at the Midtown Executive Club on Thursday evening was Dr. Lisa Sanders, author of a "Diagnosis" col- umn for the N.Y. Times and the technical advisor for the television series "House, M.D."; the title of her talk was "Is Holmes Crazy As a Fox, or Just Plain Crazy?", and you will be able to read her paper in the next issue of The Baker Street Journal. The William Gillette Luncheon at Moran's was well attended, as always, and featured Donny Zaldin and Hartley Nathan in a Sherlockian "Carnac the Mag- nificent" skit and the Friends of Bogie's at Baker Street (Paul Singleton, Sarah Montague, and Andrew Joffe) in a Sherlockian tribute to the centenary of the sinking of the Titanic. The luncheon also was the occasion for Al Gregory's presentation of the annual Jan Whimsey award (named in memory of his wife Jan Stauber) for the most whimsical piece in The Serpentine Muse last year; the winner (Karen Murdock, author of "Do You Write Like Arthur Conan Doyle?") received a certificate and a check for the Canonical sum of $221.17.

McCombe, Ph.D. April 2015 Abstract In 1887, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle published his first novel regarding the detective Sherlock Holmes. He would go on to publish another three novels and 56 short stories detailing the great detective’s endeavors. Today, 128 years later, Conan Doyle’s Sherlock Holmes is as popular, as relevant, and as alive as ever. Adaptations continue to be made and achieve success, including the BBC’s mini-series, Sherlock. This modern adaptation and its interpretation of Conan Doyle’s characters, novels, stories, plots, and themes allow for a unique combination of Victorian and Modern England.

  • Mark Gatiss and Steven Moffat's Great Game of Fandom: Investigating The
    Mark Gatiss and Steven Moffat’s Great Game of Fandom: Investigating the Creator-Text-Fan Relationship of BBC’s A Thesis Presented to the Department of Communication and Arts at Roskilde University In Partial Fulfilment of Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts English & Communication Presented by Marie Sophie Kindler [email protected] / [email protected] Studienr.: 58727 Under the Supervision of Ebbe Klitgård Submitted on 28th of June 2017 Abstract This thesis is investigating the reciprocal relationship between author, text and fan. Approaching the modern realisation of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s original Sherlock Holmes phenomenon, this thesis focusses on BBC’s television series Sherlock. Written by Steven Moffat and Mark Gatiss, the show is critically acclaimed for its accomplishment to update the Victorian stories without losing its loyalty to the source text. Because of its production approach, the series is particularly interesting for participatory audiences, which is why it gathered an enormous fanbase. Additionally to their intertextual adaptation approach (that references previous interpretations as much as the canon itself), Gatiss and Moffat’s self- declared “fanboyness” attracts fans who celebrate the co-writers for their fannish motivation. However, the ambiguity of Gatiss and Moffat’s fan-producer behaviour has considerably blurred the lines between official production and fandom. Therefore, discursive-struggles between the fans and the co-writers testify the important role of authors for fan audiences. While the fans acknowledge Gatiss and Moffat’s creative power, they contest the ways in which it is wielded. This becomes apparent by looking at the queerbaiting controversy that unleashed in January 2017, shortly after Sherlock’s final episode.
