No to gay Holmes sequel

Andrea Plunket, US copyright holder for Sherlock Holmes literature, has threatened to withdraw permission for future movies if the Holmes-Watson bromoeroticism turns into full-on bromosexuality.

Her comments have come in reaction to a recent Letterman interview which saw Robert Downey Jr contemplating whether Holmes is a "very butch homosexual". Plunket was left thoroughly unamused.

Now, while Guy Ritchie took huge liberties with the main relationship in his unrealistically modern Sherlock Holmes, something tells me that he's not planning on having the two actually get it ohhhn in a sequel, especially if he wants to keep that PG-13 certificate.

I can only imagine Plunket's worst fear: a scene involving the two bromancers naked, some citrus fruit and Robert Downey Jr turning to the camera with a grin and saying, "Ah! A lemon entry, my dear Watson!"
