Very watchable, just know what you're getting.

Attack of the tooth fairy!

The teeth of young children are vanishing, has the tooth fairy gone bad, or is some other bizarre being at work?

I did thoroughly enjoy this, despite it did the most part being utterly over the top, and totally ludicrous, who on Earth would even contemplate a scenario such as this one.

Now that I know the formula, I am enjoying it, my expectations have changed. I liked the involvement of Mycroft, and I actually liked his character, he's so much better than Watson, who I hate to say is just n awful character, he's not adding much.

More great effects, Sheila Atim totally steals the show as The Tooth Fairy, she is wonderful.

Enjoyable 7/10.

So much better than the first one

Maybe it's just me getting used to it but this episode felt so much better than the first one. Much less cringy and far more believable (for what it is).

Chapter Two: The Ghosts of 221B

The dark fairy tale element of this story works rather well.

A malevolent tooth fairy who steals all the children's teeth in the middle of the night. Even some adults lose them.

Doctor Watson sends the Irregulars to investigate.

However this is all part of a diabolical plan. Leopold discovers a link to a wealthy Duke.

This is the kind of story Guillermo Del Toro would weave. It was ridiculous but entertaining. A look into the Victorian morality of the wealthy.

So far there is little of Sherlock Holmes. Doctor Watson has all the charm of an unfriendly bank manager who likes to say no.
