1* ActorSharedBackground: Creator/LouiseBrealey, who plays Molly Hooper, is a feminist. [[spoiler:In this episode, she plays a suffragist, which were precursors to modern feminism. However, Brealey, unlike Victorian Molly, isn't involved in baroque murder/suicide/terrorism gender equality plots. As far as we know.]]
2* BeamMeUpScotty: The classic Holmesian example of "Elementary, my dear Watson" is alluded to when Sherlock actually uses the phrase.
3* MutuallyFictional: The Victorian and Modern settings are suggested to be this by TheStinger.
