Apparently, Mark Gatiss knows the value of a good coat and a short partner in crime friend. This strikes me as hilarious for reasons that are beyond me. I do believe Sherlock has broken my brain.
I don't actually think this particular meme is spoilerish, though explaining the context certainly would be...
That, or the London underclass is entirely populated by timelords. Sherlock was immortal as long as he wasn't one of the angels, but he lost that particular strength when he became all boring. Hence why Mycroft told him to get out of the way.
You know, I wasn't going to say anything about this because I was afraid it was too clever by half, but... In the Doyle books AFAICT, Moriarty is just Professor Moriarty. No name given. He has a brother in the military, a Col. James Moriarty, who defends his memory.
Just how sure are we that Jim from I.T. is the consulting criminal? Your secret twins theory makes a kind of sense.

My money's on Mycroft's mad image manipulation team and brotherly affection because anything else would be crackish even for this show.
