I suppose, they will shoot series 4 after Hamlet, so Benedict will have to grow his hair during his stage time. I am not familiar with Hamlet (yet), would longer hair fit to this role?

By the way, I am freaking out with joy at the moment which my boyfriend doesn't understand. "It will by in 1 1/2 years!". My answer: "Well, in the Sherlock fandom you think in those timelines."

There is no description of Hamlet's appearance in the play (apart from his wearing black) so they can do whatever they like - long, short, curls, straight, blond, dark, auburn, beard or no beard … So let the curls grow.

JOHNLOCK!!!!!!!!!

Wouldn't that be the first thing you would expect?
 

My thoughts exactly!

 

Speculate away, because all of the suggestions on here so far are already way better than what I've just seen on one of my other forums.
They're all going nuts on there, talking about crossovers and all sorts.

It wasn't even that.
From what I could gather, it was based on the disc world.

Oh dear sorry...I think I've joined Terry in his dementia( or maybe I just need to go to bed)!
I am talking absolute rubbish.
It wasn't disc world at all...
It was Douglas Adams...let me go back and check again!
Yeah, it's the Dirk Gently world.

I think they'll steer well clear of crossovers.

The last thing you expect though...mm...what could that be...I mean, really, it could be anything. If you'd told me last year that Mary was going to be an assassin who shoots Sherlock and nearly kills him, that would have been the last thing I expected.

Yes exciting news!
Heard on the radio this evening 5live..Sherlock filming January 2015 and summer2015.

Agreement on no crossovers....fingers crossed we get the three word clues soon..for xmas maybe.

Speculation one epi fimed abroad...SH has an international reputation you know.

Why did it take me so long to catch up on this?? I accidently stumbled across the BBC tweet in another forum and was like: how did I miss this omg yesssss!
But until now, I've been completely relaxed. Like being on vacation... yes, there will be another series, but some point faaar away ;-) I know an announcement doesn't make time run faster, but suddenly I'm all back into full excitement... now waiting will be tough again - holidays are over :-D

That's when I realise I must have a really twisted mind That's the one thing I speculated about and got right in S4 (that and after watching the August trailer, i'd said John was proposing Mary, but it was much simpler to figure out than Mary being a bad girld, lol) Well, in fact, I just think that I so didn't want the boys to be apart that, despite the canon, I assume from the beginning that Mary was hidding something and that she was a "bad girl"...

Anyway, I really hope they won't do crossovers. I'm aware this is a free adaptation of ACD, and there are a lot of things I can accept, but this... No...

To be honest, the last thing I currently expect for them is for Mary to die (THIS, is not the last thing I expect) and for John and Sherlock to have to deal with baby Watson, the whole parentslock thing, you know? I also hope they won't go that way...
