Yesterday the news came out that the third season of BBC’s Sherlock is about to go into production, with Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman reprising their lead roles as modern day versions of Sherlock Holmes and John Watson.

The second season of the BBC incarnation of Sherlock Holmes, simply titled Sherlock, premiered not long ago and has already finished its run.
