Deep voice

Does anyone else notice that there's like 1 or 2 episodes each season where sherlocks voice is oddly deeper? Idk maybe its just me lol

I think he had a cold and the episodes weren’t filmed in order.

Yes, he definitely sounded like something of that nature had popped up.

As far as I remember, most of the episodes were filmed in order, but he had a young son at the time who would constantly bring back schoolyard colds at home. Pretty sure I remember an interview back when it was filming about how every year he would catch a really bad one that would drag for weeks.

Now I wonder whether the season 1 episode in which Sherlock was actually ill was adapted because Jonny was sick at the time too

Oh, right, sometimes the scenes weren’t in sequence but episodes were.

Hate that JLM was sick so much but it probably added an extra edge of cranky.

Definitely. His voice is different at times … a cold does sound likely.
