* [[Hey, It's That Guy!]]:
** Tim from ''[[The Office]]'' is Doctor Watson. Others may note that the good doctor [[The
** Mrs. Hudson is [[Worzel Gummidge|Aunt Sally]].

** ...and Connie Prince is [[The Thick of It|The Piss Woman]]!
** Sharp-eyed ''Doctor Who'' fans may recognize Sally Donovan as [[Doctor Who/NS/Recap/S3 E7 42|that doctor who got immolated five minutes into an episode]] and Soo Lin ([[Gemma Chan]]) as Mia Bennett from "[[Doctor Who/NS/Recap/S4 E16 The Waters of Mars|The Waters of Mars]]".
** The police officer Sherlock lectures via laptop is Danny Webb, aka Mister Jefferson from "The Impossible Planet / The Satan Pit".
** Also from Doctor Who: Claudie Bruhl is Sydney Wade, aka the little girl in the spacesuit. Which is worse, being kidnapped by the Silence or Moriarty?

** [[Being Human (UK)|George]] is ironically being chased by a giant hound, at night. [[Doctor Who|Allons-y Alonso!]]
** ''The Hounds of Baskerville'' contained not one, but ''two'' [[Robin Hood|Little Johns]]. [[Robin Hood (TV series)|One]] is the gay owner of a B'n'B, and [[Robin of Sherwood|the other]] is an {{spoiler|evil}} scientist.
** The news presenter in the story about Baskerville has pulled double ''Doctor'' duty as the insect scientist Chantho in "Utopia" and the fortune teller in "Turn Left."
** [[The IT Crowd|Jen]] shows up as another supposedly ditzy redhead as Kitty Reilly.
** Benedict Cumberbatch previously appeared in [[Fortysomething]] playing the son of another [[Hugh Laurie|actor]] known for his [[House|Sherlock Holmes]] [[Expy]].
* [[Hey, It's That Voice!]]: [[Peter Davison]] as the planetarium announcer in "The Great Game".
