If this will be true - that would be amazing

So nice to know that, if that's true it would be like two season within one year! Unusual ^^

I'm not sure I could handle this overload...

I don't know...that sounds too good to be true. Would the Mofftiss really be this nice to us...?
Even so, if everything worked out and it were to become true...I would be SO EXCITED!!!!!!!!

Oh but we know it's what they do...

I hope it will become true.
Ben and Martin just have to be free, what could be more important?

OMG! KYAAAA!!! CAN'T WAIT!

**Posted by silverblaze** January 13, 2014 3:15 pm

Mmm, heard a similar thing before. Wasn't s3 gonna come out in autumm 2013?

Anyway, going against a long tradition of blaming the Moftiss for all that is evil, it's dependent on Ben and Martin.

I really hope this is true!

Hm... at least it's the Daily Fail....

**Posted by beekeeper** January 13, 2014 3:36 pm

now don't get me wrong., that would be splendid but....

we had pretty much exactly the same announcement last time, tbh, that we might have Sherlock 3 before the year was out. And in the end it was two years.

TBH I am cool with it taking as long as it takes. (and also, I've been hooked since the first episode so waiting and Sherlock are pretty synonymous to me).

So probably not true then.

Fantastic new if true. Fingers firmly crossed!

Maybe they will settle on a one-off Christmas special. That would be more feasable for all those concerned and also satisfy the requirements of the BBC for a christmas blockbuster.

Someone pointed out to me that Sherlockians have always been "the fandom that waited." Think what DOYLE's readers had to endure between FINA and EMPT!

And with no hope that Holmes would actually return. ACD was fairly adamant about not bringing him back. At least to start with .

From what I have read in the articles about Season 3, it took this long because of Martin and Benedict's schedules...they weren't JUST doing it to tease it.

Next Christmas is probably more likely, but of course I want it to be this year! Reeaaallly hope so! @_@
