Empty Hearse info in UK TV guides - possible spoilers

Okay, I did my weekly shopping trip today and picked up a few magazines after seeing that they had information on Series 3, primarily The Empty Hearse. And because I love you guys so much I'm going to share it ^^

I don't have a scanner and there's no way I'm going to type out every word, but I'll make summaries and point out anything new as well 

TV Times

Photo - Sherlock and John outside 221B from 30 pictures collection, Sherlock wearing deerstalker ^^

Quote from Ben - solution to fall is "ingenious, witty, and everything it should be." 

Reunion hopefully lives up to expectations, was "hellishly fun" according to Ben. Poor Martin was apparently ill and trying not to sneeze everywhere XD

They still very much enjoy working together ^^

Ben - Sherlock progresses, becoming more human. He would be fascinated to meet Sherlock but doesn't think Sherlock would give him time of day 

John is trying to move on and seems stable enough. Martin enjoys working with Amanda ^^

Stories are intriguing and exciting, also complex.

They both want to continue with the show as long as they can even with the increased demand for them.

Reunion is "absolutely gorgeous" but doesn't go to plan. Also stuff about new villain, whom we should already know 

Also, for the reunion, Sherlock tries to be funny but it doesn't go well XD

Dean - "I'm not happy about it. But I got to move on. So I'm gonna keep doing what we do...while I still can. And I'd like you to be there with me."

Sam - "I'm your brother, Dean, if you ever need to talk about anything with anybody, you got someone right here next to you."

TV and Satellite Week

Photo - from 30 pictures collection, group standing in front of mirror in 221B

Empty Hearse full of "outlandish twists and turns".

John was, and I quote, "left heartbroken" by Sherlock's fall. Too many feels  Mixed reactions when Sherlock appears. Reunion was beautifully written according to Ben ^^

Mention of impending terrorist threat and new villain.

Sherlock is "continually being challenged by what it is to be human while trying to achieve god-like status".

John is now a GP and Mary is his receptionist. She is described as "spirited".

Dean - "I'm not happy about it. But I got to move on. So I'm gonna keep doing what we do...while I still can. And I'd like you to be there with me."

Total TV Guide

Photo - official photo of John in cafe with Sherlock watching him through window

Martin is looking forward to the reveal because people keep asking him XD

Viewers won't feel cheated by solution to fall or reunion.

Moriarty is definitely dead, replaced by new villain

Moftiss describe reunion as "hair-on-the-back-of-the-neck gorgeous".

We will see ongoing humanisation of Sherlock. He learns something in this series, something huge which changes him.

Dean - "I'm not happy about it. But I got to move on. So I'm gonna keep doing what we do...while I still can. And I'd like you to be there with me."

Sam - "I'm your brother, Dean, if you ever need to talk about anything with anybody, you got someone right here next to you."

And that's it. I did pick up the Radio Times, but I know the interview with Ben was already posted so I won't do that. But there is a little bit in the listings which says Empty Hearse is "playful, funny and exhilarating". John is haunted by thoughts of Sherlock despite trying to move on.


-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Dean - "I'm not happy about it. But I got to move on. So I'm gonna keep doing what we do...while I still can. And I'd like you to be there with me."

Sam - "I'm your brother, Dean, if you ever need to talk about anything with anybody, you got someone right here next to you."

Oh Kitty, you are cruel  .

Now, waiting will be a lot harder.

Thank you, that sounds very promising!!

"221B Baker Street."

Re: Empty Hearse info in UK TV guides - possible spoilers

Thanks for the summary Kitty, comes in quite handy!

I used to be a bit scepitcal about "Sherlock" going comedy or at least becoming more comedic, but right now I really am looking forward to it, and I think it will still be an awesome mixture of funny and dramatic (the last episode of this series certainly is going to break our hearts - again) and one of the things I really love about the series coming to think of it, is that to me it is the most warmhearted interpretation of Sherlock Holmes so far.

I fear that the feels in His Last Vow will make TRF seem like a keg party.

But how would that even be theoretically possible?? I know, Mofftis claimed that, too, but I still wonder, tbh.


The Game is On!

I think they might put another layer onto things or draw a curtain away. Something like seeing the Hound.

If anyone can do it those black hearted bastards can.

Re: Empty Hearse info in UK TV guides - possible spoilers

I am really not comfortable with swearing at them. They are real people. I think we should learn something from the last incident about respect. I'd rather think they do it for us. And of course we need something to think about and talk about while we wait during the next hiatus untill series 4.

I'm pretty sure she was joking. Peter Jackson did the same thing with the Dwarf cast in the Hobbit; he called them the little bastards, as a term of endearment.

Oh, I meant black hearted bastards in the most loving of ways!

And besides, Moffit is a Scot, he would understand the reference.
