Sherlock Season 4 Image Hints At The Return Of Benedict Cumberbatch’s Sleuth

 

Ever the series to ensure plot details remain shrouded in a thick veil of secrecy series co-showrunner Mark Gatiss has unveiled the first image from the set of Sherlock season 4, teasing the return of Benedict Cumberbatch’s famed sleuth and, potentially, 221b Baker Street.

Taking to Twitter, Gatiss, who recurs in BBC’s award-winning detective drama Sherlock’s older brother Mycroft, posted the off-screen image one that appears to be taken from a monitor on set. Joining Gatiss behind the scenes for season 4 is fellow showrunner Steven Moffat, who recently spoke about how the story of Sherlock and Holmes is about to reach its climax.

Sherlock season 4 is expected to make its bow towards the end of 2016, when fans will be taken on another three-episode journey of laughter, tears, shocks, surprises and extraordinary cases. Rachel Talalay will take the reins of the premiere.
