I'm sure there are even more lists but these are the ones that caught me immediately!

and like one thing i’ve noticed is the gradual build-up of yes, let’s call it what it is, romantic tension between sherlock and john. ever since the six napoleans, we’ve been getting so much consistent ‘what the fuck was that’s. we’ve gotten sherlock saying that he loves watson, we’ve gotten ‘it was worth a wound’, we’ve gotten insomnia buddies, sherlock tucking in john to bed, we’ve got THE ENTIRETY OF THE LAST EPISODE, i mean it’s genuinely feeling like a build up.
