Re: The special - the game is on (spoilers)
But wouldn't it be nice if someone who once was The Doctor would be in the Special...?

That would be more than just "nice".

What a gorgeous place that is!
The team are amazing at finding locations!
And I've got to second that last message, Solar!

Re: The special - the game is on (spoilers)
These might be spoilers--or, as my source, DenOfGeek points out, it might just be Mark Gatiss and the director of the special, Douglas Mackinnon playing with us, but recent tweets by those two were quotations from "The Adventure of the Blue Carbuncle". (There's more in that article in the way of rumors and setlock.)

Interesting:

I cannot live without brainwork. What else is there to live for? Stand at the window there. Was there ever such a dreary, dismal, unprofitable world? See how the yellow fog swirls down the street and drifts across the dun-coloured houses. What could be more hopelessly prosaic and material? What is the use of having powers, Doctor, when one has no field upon which to exert them?

What a beautiful nursery!
I just hope it's nothing too heartbreaking

I'm still thinking of Sherlock being separated from a twin...but just in my fantasy...

Re: The special - the game is on (spoilers)
Question: if at least some of it is set in modern times, wouldn't they (the show and the characters themselves) have to address the whole "is Moriarty back" thing? I figured they wanted to save that for Series 4...

Re: The special - the game is on (spoilers)
Only if chronologically it follows on from HLV...maybe this takes place before then...I dunno.

Re: The special - the game is on (spoilers)
Didn’t someone say that the whole Moriarty thing would be explained in the special? Or is my memory playing tricks on me and they said series 4?

Yeah, Moftiss said they would explain how he survived in the special.
