Sherlock Season 4 Finale: 13 Dumbest Moments From 'The Final Problem'

11. Eurus And Moriarty's Dance

After all the teases, Moriarty finally made a real return this week. Andrew Scott made a glorious entrance, soundtracked by Queen's I Want To Break Free, except it was quickly revealed this was five years earlier.

Scott's presence was enough for that to work, but not so much what came after. Even ignoring the fact Mycroft allowed a major criminal and his dangerous sister to have an unmonitored conversation, we then got to the meeting of Moriarty and Eurus. At which point they, erm, danced against the glass.

Maybe Moffat and Gatiss have been watching The OA recently, but this was f**king weird.
