While, personally, I think Elementary is easily as good as the BBC’s much adored Sherlock, I’ll still be honest and say this is exciting news…
For a while now we’ve known the Sherlock Special was coming (remember our first look here?) but it’s good to know the cameras are rolling as we read this…
Co-creator Mark Gatiss Tweeted (see below) that he was heading out to start the Special earlier today (he was travelling from London to Bristol).
The Special will once again star Benedict Cumberbatch as Holmes and Martin Freeman as Watson. Andrew Scott (above) will also return as Moriarty as the world wonders if he is indeed still alive as was hinted in the last episode…
The Special is scheduled for late this year – probably Christmas time.
We’ll keep you posted….
On my way West. It begins… #Sherlock

Marc is a self-confessed nerd. Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
