Irene Adler. The entire character of Irene Adler is rage-inducing. That she's enamoured with Holmes (and vice versa) is an inexplicably popular fanon, but it has little to do with the actual Scandal in Bohemia, where Watson specifically says that Holmes had no romantic feelings for her, just deep respect. Furthermore, in the canon she marries a Godfrey Norton, whom she is clearly in love with.

ACD!Irene is a very self-respecting, smart, mature woman full of confidence and dignity. She voluntarily chooses to marry and lead a quiet family life, because for her, life is interesting and meaningful in its smallest, day-to-day manifestations. Like canon Holmes, she's the type of person to see small wonders all around her, in nature, in human character, in human fate. BBC!Irene is... well. An adrenaline junkie who works as a dominatrix, is in love with Sherlock, and does stupid crap instead of being dignified. I cannot imagine ACD!Irene doing anything akin to recording her sexy moan on Sherlock's phone.
