Re: sherlock series 4 (spoilers inside)
There is also the possibility of Mycroft dying which has been discussed before. I think Mark not giving up his own acting part in the show is no argument. He is one of the creators and writers and has lots of other good acting jobs. I am sure he would make Mycroft die if it was for the sake of the story.

Oh no, Susi! I love him, he makes me laugh! Also, I enjoy this childish banter between Sherlock and Mycroft too much.
But in all objectivity that is a possibility of course.

Killing Mycroft would be a brilliant plot device, however, his lose would break my heart.

Confirmed! They start shooting in April.

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?

What is the use of having powers, Doctor, when one has no field upon which to exert them?

Wow! So Benedict could maybe squeeze something in between Doctor Strange and Sherlock … I know I am greedy.

Yep, he can be a home dad for a while!
I would sob if Mycroft left the series..
April shoot is good...but unless they do London first, I won't be able to attend setlock.

Re: sherlock series 4 (spoilers inside)
Wherever setlock is, I'll attend...given it's between 2nd and 17th April, that is (school holiday).

Think mine are a bit earlier next year, but the first week in April I can certainly do...in London, that is!

Unexpected and gasp-inducing plot-twist that will appear in S4:

Oh my god! Although if that did happen I'm not sure everybody who watches the show would remember who Carl Powers is/was.

Sorry, but I thought we all presumed this.
Jan 2017 has always been scratched into my brain.
