On July 22, 2010, four nights before the UK Sherlock premiere, Benedict Cumberbatch sat down with hosts Charlie Stayt and Kate Silverton on the BBC's morning news magazine, Breakfast. Silverton: Okay, welcome back. So, it seems fitting to just drop a few clues about our final guest. He's an actor who's been in Small Island, Atonement, Tipping the Velvet and numerous theatre productions, and he's here to talk about his latest role as a very perceptive investigator, who lives at the sort of London address that comes up in pub quizzes. Stayt: Yes, his partner in crime solving is Dr John Watson, and in the original stories, he didn't once say, "elementary". Ah, it's pretty obvious who it is, isn't it? The answer is Benedict Cumberbatch, who's here to tell us about all the new BBC One adaptation of the Sherlock Holmes stories. Good morning. Cumberbatch: Good morning. Stayt: We were talking about this sort of James Bond mantle... Cumberbatch: Mmm. Stayt: ...and taking on the idea of writing a James Bond story. The idea of playing Sherlock Holmes, as an actor, is a pretty big one, I think. Cumberbatch: Yeah, I mean, they're both very daunting, iconic characters to take on, and interestingly, there's a parallel with Bond. Holmes is someone who hasn't been reinvented in the 21 st century until now, so, rather like Fleming's original novel set in that period, why not continue the franchise in a modern setting? And he's always been a modern man, Sherlock, so the idea of him being... Silverton: How... What do you mean? Cumberbatch: Well, I think he's always been at the forefront of forensic science. He was, um, somebody who was investigating the idea of fingerprints and footprints, and wrote very long, probably very boring monographs on different types of ash, cigarettes and cigar ash, to detect where the cigar and cigarette may be bought from, and therefore lead to an identity of whoever's left the ash behind. So, the idea that he can exist in the 21st century, I think, sits quite neatly. It's a difficult one, I think, for traditionalists to swallow because it could be very naff. Silverton: And I've been saying... Yes. And I can imagine people saying you just can't touch Sherlock Holmes, you know, put it in the modern day, it just won't work. Cumberbatch: Yeah. Silverton: And I actually confess, I was one of those last night who sat down to watch it... Cumberbatch: Me too, before I read the scripts. Silverton: Were you? Cumberbatch (laughs): Yeah, completely. Silverton: Were you thinking, "Gosh, I can't do this." Cumberbatch: Oh, completely, I just... It's very easy, I think, to just... to try and, uh, reinvigorate something with a very tacked-on idea of modernity, whether it just be multimedia technology or a sort of tongue-in-cheek reference to something that's now, I don't know, taken on a new guise, but... Silverton: Well, let's take a look and give people a sense of what we're talking about. Cumberbatch: Okay, yeah. Let's talk about that. Silverton: This is your very first meeting with, uh... with Watson. Cumberbatch: Okay, okay. Sherlock: I play the violin when I’m thinking. Sometimes I don’t talk for days on end. Would that bother you? Potential flatmates should know the worst about each other. John: Oh, you ... you told him about me? Mike Stamford: Not a word. John: Then who said anything about flatmates? Sherlock: I did. Told Mike this morning that I must be a difficult man to find a flatmate for. Now here he is just after lunch with an old friend, clearly just home from military service in Afghanistan. Wasn’t that difficult a leap. John: How did you know about Afghanistan? Sherlock: Got my eye on a nice little place in central London. Together we ought to be able to afford it. We’ll meet there tomorrow evening; seven o’clock. Sorry – gotta dash. I think I left my riding crop in the mortuary. John: Is that it? Sherlock: Is that what? John: We’ve only just met and we’re gonna go and look at a flat? Sherlock: Problem? John: We don’t know a thing about each other; I don’t know where we’re meeting; I don’t even know your name. Sherlock: I know you’re an Army doctor and you’ve been invalided home from Afghanistan. I know you’ve got a brother who’s worried about you but you won’t go to him for help because you don’t approve of him – possibly because he’s an alcoholic; more likely because he recently walked out on his wife. And I know that your therapist thinks your limp’s psychosomatic – quite correctly, I’m afraid. That’s enough to be going on with, don’t you think? Sherlock: The name’s Sherlock Holmes and the address is two two one B Baker Street. Afternoon. Mike Stamford: Yeah. He’s always like that. Stayt: That is, uh... And we won't go into too much detail, but you're pretty much right, aren't you? I mean, he is annoyingly... Cumberbatch: Yes... Irritatingly... But, I mean, he is fallible. He is fallible. It's not a complete science deduction. It is, pretty much, in his hands, but... There are red herrings. There are dead ends. But the brilliant thing he still can do, in the 21 st century, with all the multimedia and forensic science he has at his availability... At his availability! At his hands, at his beck and call... Is to turn that into a coherent narrative, to understand who, why, what, when, and he does that so fantastically brilliantly, and sometimes he gets it wrong, but... Silverton: And it's an illustration of how...If just by being, purely by being observant, that you can pick up on... Cumberbatch: He's great. Silverton: If just by being, purely by being observant, that you can pick up on... Cumberbatch: Yes, it's an achievable... It's an achievable power. It's not a superpower. It's... Silverton: It's... It struck me as sort of a cross between, and we mentioned forensic science, sort of a CSI, it's got a really pacey feel... Cumberbatch: Mmm. Yeah. Silverton: The scripting's very fast and very... There's a lot of wit in there. Cumberbatch: Yes, it's quite... Silverton: It's kind of Like an adult Doctor Who. But then, some of the writers have actually also written for Doctor Who. Cumberbatch: Well, Steve and Mark... Both Steven Moffat and Mark Gatiss do both write for Doctor Who, but, um... I don't think there's that much of a crossover, but stylistically, you have a maverick. You have an outsider. Silverton: Yeah. Cumberbatch: You have someone who's voluble, who's incredibly smart and fast-thinking, and adept at thinking on his feet, and someone who leaps into action and leaves people going, "Wait! Hang on!" And, you know, catching up like the audience does, but... I think what's smart about this as well is that there are moments, without spoiling too much, where the audience is let into the thinking of Holmes, which is quite a new dynamic, I think, in any TV drama. You have these moments not just with sort of, screen technology, which is often a cutaway to a phone or a computer where the words actually appear rather than actually being on the screen. Stayt: Now that's worth explaining, isn't it, because I thought that was a very... Silverton: Yes. Stayt: ... I've not seen it before. Cumberbatch: Yeah. Stayt: Just to explain, so, I think filmmakers have been struggling with the idea of, how do you make texting interesting... Cumberbatch: Yeah, yeah. ... Stayt: ... in a visual sense. What you do in this film, is that you... You're receiving the texts and they appear as subtitles. Cumberbatch: Yeah. Stayt: And so you know what the actor's looking at. Cumberbatch: Exactly, exactly. Stayt: It's so simple. I don't know why... Cumberbatch: And yet very, very, very effective. I know, I know. I think maybe because people think it's some kind of intrusion on the actual physical space of what the camera's looking at, but I... You know, a word or two floating up, it's brilliant. It just works. Stayt: It comes like a thought bubble, really. Silverton: Yeah. Cumberbatch: Yes, it does a bit. Silverton: You've also got a lovely landlady that I think we should introduce very quickly, if we've got time. Cumberbatch: Oh, please. The lovely Una Stubbs. Silverton: The landlady at 221 B Baker Street, played by Una Stubbs. And we get to see what a mess you live in. (Cumberbatch laughs) John: Well, this could be very nice. Very nice indeed. Sherlock: Yes. Yes, I think so. My thoughts precisely. So I went straight ahead and moved in. John: Soon as we get all this rubbish cleaned out... Oh. So this is all ... Sherlock: Well, obviously I can, um, straighten things up a bit. John: That’s a skull. Sherlock: Friend of mine. When I say ‘friend’ ... Mrs. Hudson: What do you think, then, Doctor Watson? There’s another bedroom upstairs if you’ll be needing two bedrooms. John: Of course we’ll be needing two. Mrs. Hudson: Oh, don’t worry; there’s all sorts round here. Mrs Turner next door’s got married ones. Oh, Sherlock. The mess you’ve made. Stayt: I bet it was hard to keep a straight face filming that, wasn't it? (Silverton and Cumberbatch laugh) Cumberbatch: This stuff is fantastic. Holmes's default mode is quite a straight face. It's rare that he smiles without intent. But yeah, no, she's wonderful. She's just delightful. She's very, very funny. Stayt: Like I was saying that... Sorry, you were saying a second ago about how many actors have taken on the role of Sherlock. You were saying that it was... Is it 200? Cumberbatch: It's a huge number. If you take into the international contingent as well, it's... I think it is well into the 200s. I think it's possibly... This might be in the Guinness Book of Records, I'm not sure, and I should know this, playing a fact-meister that Holmes is. Um, I think he is the most-played literary fictional character. Um, I mean for me, one of the scariest things, as far as inheriting any of that and playing such an iconic role was thinking about Rathbone and Brett. To me, they are the two supreme English Holmes and always will be. So that was yet another appeal with escaping that shadow slightly, because of not having a deerstalker, a bowler hat, or a cape or pipe in sight, that there was... We were moving out of the Victorian smog of it into something which I could have some kind of a new identity with. Silverton: Mmm. Cumberbatch: Um, and also it's younger and also it's when they first meet and that's very rarely been done. Silverton: Yes. Cumberbatch: And it's a great place to start the story, where it originally started, in Study in Scarlet. Silverton: That's fantastic. Cumberbatch: Ours is called "A Study in Pink." Silverton: Well... Stayt: You get a scarf and a long coat. Cumberbatch: Oh yes, you have to come up with some kind of a silhouette. Silverton: There's some things that still remain. Yeah. It's so lovely to see you. Thank you so much... Cumberbatch: It's an absolute pleasure. Stayt: I know you're a little bit dicky on the throat. Cumberbatch: A little bit dicky on the throat, yeah. Stayt: Thank you. Silverton: So one not to miss, then. Sherlock on BBC One, 9:00 on Sunday night.

Essay代写:British and Korean mystery series
下面为大家整理一篇优秀的essay代写范文- British and Korean mystery series,供大家参考学习,这篇论文讨论了英国与韩国的推理电视剧。《神探夏洛克》和《特殊案件专案组TEN2》分别是英国和韩国的推理电视剧,虽都有人物的差异化设计,但英剧《神探夏洛克》中人物的差异化设计是为了更好的突出夏洛克,强调个人能力,华生虽时时在旁却只是起到辅助的作用。而《特殊案件专案组TEN2》突出的是团队的力量,差异化的人物设计让TEN小组中的每个人都成为不可或缺的存在。
Reasoning TV series, is the logic and reasoning as the main characteristics of the TV series, the story of the entry, twists and turns, ups and downs, in the complicated and confusing complex environment and fragmented clues to restore the truth of the case, quite loved by young men and women, a large number of brain cells after sacrifice, and the audience is never bored.
When it comes to reasoning, Sherlock Holmes, the famous "consulting detective" who lives at 221 B Baker Street in London, is a talented fictional detective created by the British detective novelist Sir Arthur Conan Doyle at the end of the 19th century. Sherlock, in this case, is produced by the BBC and takes the detective directly from the 19th century to the bustling metropolis of the 21st century, where he blends elements of modern culture into a series of unusual adventures with his good friend John h. Watson. Different from the adaptation of sherlock, TEN is an original work published by Korea OCN television, which depicts the detective work of the criminal investigation team in charge of solving less than 10% of major criminal cases. The former is from the United Kingdom in Europe and the United States, while the latter is from South Korea in Asia. Taking sherlock and TEN2 as examples, what are the similarities and differences of reasoning between Britain and South Korea?
"Sherlock" and "special cases TEN2" both have their own unique designs for differentiating personalities.
The two main characters in sherlock, sherlock and Watson, are literally separated by a galaxy of personalities. Shylock is confident and aloof, acute good observation, memory is amazing, however unworldly, with reality antipathetic, with nicotine patch to keep thinking excitement, playing the violin to help think, is a complete eccentric. But Watson is steady and gentle, treats people friendly, the heavy sentiment heavy righteousness, such positive person sets up in front of sherlock actually appears very... Mediocrity. When bizarre cases occur, sherlock is always seen wearing a long black woolen overcoat with the collar sticking up, while Watson, who has noticed what he is wearing? In the last episode of the third season, sherlock, surrounded by the police, takes a clean shot at magnussen even though he knows he will be punished for it. And the audience comes back from the shock and says, oh, this is sherlock!
"Special case task force TEN2" is a TEN team made up of four people to investigate various bizarre cases. The four members also have their own characteristics in personality and ability, so they have their own nickname in the TV series. "The monster that catches a monster" lv zhixun, sober reason is some again cold and inhuman, in order to catch a murderer to disregard cost, it is the workaholic that one mind immerses in the case. "Lie detector" south ruili, good at observation and has a keen psychological analysis ability, is a kind and simple and helpful girl. "White snake" white snake tin, experienced, even known as "walking criminal investigation walking dictionary", seems to be a slovenly untidy uncle, but has a keen sense of smell and intuition, as the snake quickly grasp the key breakthrough case. "Public phone" pu minhao, justice blood of the new Interpol, persistent, all aspects of the ability to have, as the group is responsible for all kinds of errands, serious and positive, eager to be recognized.
Although there are different characters in sherlock and TEN2, the different characters in the British drama sherlock are designed to better highlight sherlock and emphasize personal ability. Although Watson is always around, he just plays an auxiliary role. While special case task force TEN2 highlights the power of the team, the differentiated character design makes everyone in TEN's team indispensable.
From beginning to end will find that after the opera, sherlock, and the special case astonished TEN2, although each set is composed of separate cases, but at the end of the piece will appear a ultimate case will entire series together, and the part of the case clues or hints have been buried in the previous episode of early, had to admire the wisdom of the writers. Magnussen is the ultimate case in sherlock. Although he didn't officially appear in the third episode, he did so in the first one: it was magnussen who was behind Watson's mysterious capture and near-death experience. But why did he attack Watson? After watching the first episode, magnussen's doubts were finally answered in the third one. He just wanted to prove that Watson is sherlock's weak point. The criminal F, who was mentioned repeatedly in TEN2, ran from the first episode to the last one. As for why the high-energy criminal F could not be arrested at the end of the episode, of course, it was to prepare for the next season.
Sherlock on the narrative style characteristics, narrative time is Syria's flashback interleave appear alternately, narrative space and do not provide craftsmanship, not only have a few cases the final link in a bit at the same time, the case is more s real space and thinking space stochastic jump, Shylock in the third gun using only two seconds after waking hours into the memory palace, accurately find a way to save, even the fallen direction of careful thinking, surprise. The rapid transformation of thinking space and real space, the rhythm is compact, dizzying. He pays great attention to the arrangement of clues, and is good at creating unexpected plot points, which is beyond the conventional thinking of the audience and makes people confused and surprised. Moriarty shot himself, sherlock left a message and fell, Watson married, moriarty resurrected... Wait, it's all jaw-dropping.
The biggest feature of the special case team TEN2 in narration is that even if it is reversed, the team of four is constantly finding clues and through the process of rigorous analysis, influencing the audio-visual of the audience and guiding the audience's thinking. And just when the audience clapped their thighs and suddenly realized: "the original murderer is him!" When, 4 people group discovered new clue to get new answer again however... No one can refuse to accept a valid statement. In short, a case without a twists and turns of the reversal of the reversal of the reversal is not possible to end the case! In cattle in the murder of an island, as the husband of the dead will initially be suspect in groups of four, and then all the clues are pointing to the husband's sister-assistant, be ready to catch in groups of four female assistant justice when she was already dead, then leads to another a female assistant, take a big circle back, however, found that the real murderer or the dead husband. After being repeatedly played in the drama, whether to feel their IQ was provoked?
Both the British drama sherlock and the Korean drama TEN2 have their own advantages and characteristics in character setting and narrative style. After watching these two divine dramas, I can't help feeling anxious about our domestic mystery dramas. However, it seems that only the popular bao zheng series and song shijie series are familiar to everyone. In recent years, except for the Hong Kong police drama occasionally involved, there is almost no shadow of the mystery drama, mystery drama where? Can't we a great country make a decent mystery play?
Play this piece of short board in order to save the domestic reasoning, we must be good at learning, whether the English play sherlock or Korean dramas "special cases astonished TEN2" where there are many worthy of our reference and study, both outstanding personal ability and emphasize teamwork, character set is must in have their own characteristics, the audience was watching a TV show, the first to attract his may not be a drama, but some of the figures, so it is very important to character set. Had the person with distinct individual character to set, had a pair of skeleton then, go filling his flesh and blood with wonderful and rich gut even, just be a complete TV play. However, only these are far from enough, to be decorated with a unique narrative style, so as to get a good TV series.
