Yeah, it's a bit jarring to realise that Linden really did kill his chauffeur, when it seemed that we were being led to think otherwise. But I suppose Linden never did ask Sherlock to help prove that he didn't kill the chauffeur, only to prove that he'd been poisoned. It's sad to think about that character's future. He probably go to a psych hospital rather than prison, but his eventual death is inevitable. We already caught a glimpse of what awaits him with the other victim, playing the piano. You're right that a bit more resolution on him would have been welcome.

Agreed with all the other stuff you mentioned!

The chauffeur murder was jarring and somewhat cynical. I suppose the writer/s used it as an excuse for Holmes to take the client (and the bee), but surely they could have come up with a lesser crime. This would have been a better paced plot for one of the two-hour Brit detective series.
