The BBC have today released a new mini-episode of Sherlock ahead of their detective drama's return next week. Set two years after the events of The Reichenbach Fall, the third run again comprises three 90-minute episodes: The Empty Hearse, The Sign of Three and His Last Vow.
What can be fathomed from this 7-minute teaser (below), titled Many Happy Returns, then? In short, not blooming much. Jonathan Aris' Anderson, Rupert Graves' Inspector Lestrade and Martin Freeman's John Watson each feature in the prologue, but beyond a cameo or two, Benedict Cumberbatch is nowhere to be seen in his present day guise. Nevertheless, having the Sherlock cast back on our screens is a treat unto itself, and the video will surely only make the wait until January 1st all the more challenging for fans!
Sherlock returns to BBC One this New Year's Day, 2014.
