I figured it had to happen eventually.

I was just listening to Cabin Pressure and I couldn’t help but notice the eerie similarities between these two scenes:
Cabin Pressure 3x05 Rotterdam-
Martin Crieff: Listen, um, do you live in Fitton, Martin?
Martin Davenport: Yes.
Martin Crieff: Do you want to go for a drink sometime?
Martin Davenport: Martin, look, I’m really sorry but I’m not-
Martin Crieff: Oh no, no! Nor am I! Do you want to go for a pint? A pint of bitter? Or stout?
Martin Davenport: Oh yes, of course…I’d like that, Martin.
Martin Crieff: So would I, Martin.
Sherlock 1x01 A Study in Pink-
John: You don’t have a girlfriend then?
Sherlock: Girlfriend? No. Not really my area.
John: Oh, right. Do you have a boyfriend? Which is fine by the way.
Sherlock: I know it’s fine.
John: So you’ve got a boyfriend.
Sherlock: No.
John: Okay. You’re unattached, just like me.
Sherlock: John, um, I think you should know that I consider myself married to my work and, while I’m flattered by your interest, I’m really not looking for anything.
John: No, no I’m not asking- No. I’m just saying, it’s all fine.
Sherlock: Good.
My favorite thing is that Benedict has been on both sides of this conversation.
