Benedict Cumberbatch confirms Sherlock season 4


Benedict Cumberbatch as Sherlock Holmes in BBC Sherlock - Season 4 confirmed

As a fan of the BBC Series, I am happy to share this information.

Benedict Cumberbatch has proven to be a great modern version of the Victorian detective. He is one of the best casting choices in a long time, when it comes to Sherlock Holmes based adaptations.

Mark Gatiss and Steven Moffat are well-versed in Arthur Conan Doyle's stories and have incorporated several nods to the Canon. I especially liked Gatiss' retelling of The Hound of the Baskervilles.

The exact dates of airing are yet to be revealed. Rest assured, I will keep you updated with the latest news.

Here's wishing the best to the BBC Sherlock team.

  2. Glad to hear it! Not Surprising though since just about everyone on blogger watches the series. Season 2 can't come soon enough.

    2. Oh, sorry about that, I meant season 3. Season 2 was great though, particularly the Hounds of the Baskerville.

  3. That's awesome news! I just hope that one of these episodes John actually meets a Mary Morstan. Although it seems that Miss Morstan, or Mrs. Watson, actually dies at some point. It's been so long since I've read the short stories from start to finish that I've forgotten the details. In that case I'd rather not see his heartbreak. *sighs*

    Thanks for posting! :-)

    1. You are welcome, Carissa.

      I too would like to see a Watson-Morstan meeting. And let's hope they keep her safe and sound for the entire show. That will go against the Canon, but we will be happy!

    2. "I too would like to see a Watson-Morstan meeting. And let's hope they'll keep her safe and sound For the entire show. That will go against the Canon, but we will be happy!" Took the words right out of my mouth. I loved the two of them together in The Sign of Four.
