BBC Sherlock isn't clever enough for Ravenclaw. :P (Possibly I would have voted differently if you hadn't linked those old posts for me to re-read, but... yeah. He's exactly the sort of thoughtless that would fit right in to Slytherin, plus I suspect if given the choice, which the Hat probably would have done, he'd've chosen the house most likely to annoy his brother.)
Mycroft probably is Ravenclaw, though. Being in Slytherin would've made it too obvious what he was up to, and he doesn't want power for its own sake (or acclaim at all.) (BBC!Mycroft is more Slytherin than his Doyle counterpart, though, Doyle!Mycroft probably didn't even get offered Slytherin.)
BBC!John is, a, an adrenaline junkie, and b, has trouble remembering his girlfriends' names, both of which are 100% Gryffindor traits, and, c, has a tendency to do morally ambiguous things without it ever shaking his conviction of moral rightness. (Doyle!John is probably Hufflepuff, though, what with the being gentlemanly, dashing, and badass.)
