We have no context for the above image, so feel free to speculate away. All we do know is that it's from next year's Sherlock special, which will be followed by 3 more brand new episodes at some point. The pic was accompanied by the hashtags #221back #Sherlock #notkidding. Here's what the show's co-creator Steven Moffat had to say about what's the come. "A special, plus a new series of three episodes — it's a record-breaking run! Of course, it's far too early to say what's coming, but we're reasonably confident that the very next thing to happen to Sherlock and John, is the very last thing you'd expect."

Season 3 was really disappointing to me, but this looks groovy.

@staypuffed yeah I was really let down by season 3 as well. It was still good, just nowhere near as good as it could or should have been.

I'd love if they did a period set throwback episode as a one-off. That'd be quite amazing actually.

How does three episodes constitute a "season"?

I'm really hoping Sebastian Moran shows up. He was a badass in both the Guy Ritchie films and Elementary.

The Empty Hearse will probably be talking about "What would it be like if Sherlock and John were in old Victorian times?" or something like that. This is gonna be great!

I agree that Season 3 was a bit of a let down, but I really hope that ending leads to a great season 4. I just hate having to wait this long!

Season is an American term, due to your shows lasting a ridiculous length of time.

This is series 4. I quite liked the 3rd series, but didn't come close to the end of the second.
