<'Sherlock' to
Return With Special Before Fourth Season>
"A special, plus a
new series of three episodes — it's a record-breaking run! Of course, it's far
too early to say what's coming, but we're reasonably confident that the very
next thing to happen to Sherlock and John, is the very last thing you'd expect,"
co-creator, writer and executive producer Steven Moffat said in a
statement.
Fellow
co-creator, writer and executive producer Mark Gatiss added, "Series Four! At
last ! It's always special to return to Sherlock but this time it's even more
special as we're doing … a Special! Not only THAT, we'll then be shooting three
more episodes which will take Sherlock and John Watson into deeper and darker
water than ever before. The whole Sherlock team are terrifically excited to
return for four new adventures. The Game is on — again!"
