Aidan Quinn will play NYPD Captain Gregson who worked with Sherlock at Scotland Yard after 9/11 and was so impressed with his work that he has invited him to work as a consultant to the police in New York City. (even though this Holmes is just out of rehab because they don't apparently have rehab centres IN ENGLAND) Gregson grew accustomed to Sherlock’s “eccentricities” in the U.K., but knows they won’t necessarily fly in the Big Apple.
What are Sherlock Holmes 'eccentricities'? You wonder if he's gonna be played like House or like Monk. But not acerbic and snarky like Brett and Cumberbatch.
(WTF mention of 9/11? Sort of reminds me how an American critic complained about making a reference to air disasters in Sherlock season 2 and how it was an affront to Americans after 9/11, forgetting the bombing of a plane over LOCKERBIE Scotland would be the thing that resonates with British audiences. but no, the US has ownership of everything terrorist related, doesn't it?)
You might recall Quinn played in the most recent Brit-US debacle, the remake of Prime Suspect.
