Irene Adler - Professionally known as “The Woman”. There are many names for what she does. She prefers “dominatrix” {x}
So I saw this in my notifications. Boy did it get me worked up!
I genuinely don’t understand why people dislike Sally Donovan. Mostly because I’ve had premeditated assumptions about what type of people would like BBC Sherlock enough to have strong opinions on the show, such as the dislike of a character:
- the viewers are sharp, or at least critical, or at least maybe a tad observant
- they’re keen enough to know most actions have rational motives
- they understand that, independent of John Watson, Sherlock Holmes is a dick
I assume these mostly because appreciating narratives always lends to something inspirational in one’s own personal life, and the show’s display of Sherlock’s brilliance and critical thinking is, I thought, something most people could at least pick up a bit. And so it baffles me why people would dislike Sergeant Sally Donovan, and most times passionately so.
A Scandal in Belgravia commentary.
