Just read some of the interviews there. Needless to say I am not happy about how much Martin had to stress how loving the Watson marriage was. Another build-up for the rug-pull? Hopefully so!

Interviewer:  What is John and Mary's relationship like in S4?
Martin:  These are prepared words.  Sue chose them carefully.

Prepared words haha, so true.

I am not sure how the whole Mary storyline is going to play out really. I'm sure we're going to get some more information about Mary's past and just from what they've said about it getting dark pretty quickly it's not all going to be sweetness and light and happy families but I'm trying to think of something that would be truly shocking.

OR, I think the other possibility is that the rug pull is not going to be the expected one.  This it actually the one my money is on at the moment.  I've always had a bit of a problem with the idea that Sherlock and John are plotting against Mary, and have been more and more drawn to the idea that the three of them actually do really like/love each other.   I suspect it might go that way, and perhaps that will mean whatever happens is potentially more devastating. 

I'm wondering if that's the case too Liberty. I think as they're putting so much emphasis on the fact that Mary and John are completely happy together and that Mary is not going to come between John and Sherlock it's almost too obvious if that turns out not to be the case. Maybe they're actually being honest and they are all on the same side and something devastating comes out of that rather than them being at odds.

I'm ok with Mary not turning out to be a villain but like you I don't really want to see much time dedicated to the trio and I'm hoping that what Martin said is true and that the John/Sherlock friendship will remain central.

mrshouse, once again I completely agree with you.

Something else, has anyone else noticed that Mary is wearing pretty wide clothes? The blue blouse she is wearing on the group pic and pretty much all the time we saw her during Setlock, the blue parka and now the white jacket on the promo pic and the perspective from which she is shot there... all of a sudden I thought 'Is Mary pregnant again?'.

Oh gawd.....

Official launch of Series 4





I'm not sure if this is an official promo pic or a fan manip



Benedict's hair is looking dark, has he dyed it for The Current War?

I think the last one is a manip, too, but it looks neat! 

Beautiful pictures from last night too! 

Awesome picture of awesome people! 

That is good news!  Although I really hope that Netflix also show it in the UK, for those of us who are paying for both a BBC TV licence and a Netflix subscription!  Netflix in the UK tends to be lacking.   I have pre-ordered the series, so will have it anyway, but it does only seem fair for those who haven't.

A question for those of you who's been around for the previous pre-new-Sherlock-madness occasions:
Has it always been like that? I mean, I have a feeling that I shouldn't go to sleep else I'll miss something important. All the interviews and trailers and awards and whatnot PR - it takes me a couple of hours to catch up on everything every night.
