OH ... IT ISN'T 3G ... IT IS 3G

SOME WILD SETLOCK AND JOHNLOCK SPECULATION BORN OUT OF THE FLYING SPARKS OF YESTERDAYS FIREWORKS AT LOWER MACHEN
Since the very first series of Sherlock BBC many brilliant studies, speculations and theories have been developed concerning the 'perfect Johnlock' moment (appart from kiss and wedding, of course :)
THE THREE GARRIDEBS MOMENT
' .... Then my friend's wiry arms were round me, and he was leading me to a chair.
"You're not hurt, Watson? For God's sake, say that you are not hurt!"
It was worth a wound -- it was worth many wounds -- to know the depth of loyalty and love which lay behind that cold mask. The clear, hard eyes were dimmed for a moment, and the firm lips were shaking. For the one and only time I caught a glimpse of a great heart as well as of a great brain. All my years of humble but single-minded service culminated in that moment of revelation. '
(ACD The Adventure of the Three Garridebs)
The hopes for S4 are flying high to finally get this long dersired moment. Recently however I'm not so sure anymore if Mofftiss will indeed adept 3GAR. After three series and a very special Special it is obvious that TPTB are immensly fond of mixing and twisting not only the original ADC stories but also all kinds of Sherlock Holmes adaptations of the last century. Then why would they approach 3GAR in a straight way? (pun completely intended :) Why not come through the 'back door' ... so to speak? :)))
WHAT IF WE DON'T GET THE THREE GARRIDEBS BUT THE THREE GABLES INSTEAD ?
Not the original ACD story but the Granada adaptation with Jeremy Brett and Edward Hardwicke. Dr. Watson gets even more in trouble and really badly injured in this one. @mollydobby posted a brilliant set of pictures here x and here x. The cases are different but this particular situaion could be shaped to exactly the same outcome. In some aspects this adaptation fits even better than 3GAR.
To quote William Shakespeare:
"What's in a name? That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet."
