After co-star Martin Freeman hinted yesterday that the show was coming back with at least a Christmas special, this morning the producers of Sherlock delivered the news everyone has been longing to hear: Season 4 is officially a go.
Co-creator, writer, and executive producer Mark Gatiss tells BBC One:
Gatiss’ partner Steven Moffat had more specifics about how the new season will unfold. He tells the BBC about the episode breakdown:
Sherlock stars Benedict Cumberbatch in the titular role and Freeman as Watson, and has thus far aired three seasons. For those looking to catch up, every single episode is currently available on Netflix.
The 2015 Christmas special will begin shooting in January, and the full fourth season will film shortly after that. Basically, you’ve got plenty of time to catch up.
