Co-creator Steven Moffat has now confirmed the special will take place in Victorian London, validating fan assumptions about the episode. Last month the show’s stars Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman were spotted filming Sherlock in 19th century clothes, causing fans to wonder if perhaps the crime-fighting duo attended a costume ball, or ir perhaps it was just some kind of dream sequence within the special. But no: The 90-minute episode literally takes place more than 100 years ago.
“The special is its own thing,” Moffat told EW before attending a panel at the South by Southwest conference on Monday. “We wouldn’t have done the story we’re doing, and the way we’re doing it, if we didn’t have this special. It’s not part of the run of three episodes. So we had this to do it – as we could hardly conceal – it’s Victorian. [Co-creator Mark Gatiss] and me, we wanted to do this, but it had to be a special, it had to be separate entity on its own. It’s kind of in its own little bubble.”
The special is pretty much finished, Moffat added, and he’s very pleased with the result. No air date is set by Sherlock networks BBC and PBS Masterpiece, but the special is widely expected to air in the UK around December.
"It is increasingly hard to get everyone back together because of everyone’s schedules. We’re all very keen to do it. In a way, it’s a good idea though - you come back for three weeks and you’re on just long enough for people to not get pissed off! We always say that you get one James Bond film every two or three years - compared to that this is a treat! We start filming the Christmas special on Jan 6. When it will be aired is up to the BBC. And then three more. So this time there are four films."

Benedict Cumberbatch announces engagement to director Sophie Hunter
An engagement announcement was posted in the Times, between Sherlock star Cumberbatch and Hunter, an actor and successful stage director
•Benedict Cumberbatch and Sophie Hunter’s engagement - the reaction
Benedict Cumberbatch has got engaged to his girlfriend Sophie Hunter. A modest and traditional announcement posted in the Times today read:
The engagement is announced between Benedict, son of Wanda and Timothy Cumberbatch of London, and Sophie, daughter of Katharine Hunter of Edinburgh and Charles Hunter of London.
It’s a typically low-key gesture by a couple who have kept their relationship out of the limelight. Cumberbatch, 38 and Hunter, 36, were only confirmed as a couple earlier this year, after they were pictured together at the French Open.
As well as a number of small film roles – including one alongside Cumberbatch in 2009 film Burlesque Fairytales – Hunter has frequently directed for the stage.
She won the Samuel Beckett award for writing and directing her play The Terrific Electric in 2007, and has since staged productions of Britten’s opera The Rape of Lucretia, Mozart’s The Magic Flute, and Ibsen’s Ghosts.

The Imitation Game 公開目前、アカデミー賞ノミネートの呼び声も高く、出演作は引きも切らず。
人気実力とも最高潮のこの時期に婚約発表。
『この世にまだmagicというものは存在しているんですね。民主主義支持運動やUNICEF、Mececins Sans Frontieresが行っている活動は本当に素晴らしい。
自分の信じることに命を捧げ、悲劇を招きそうな状態を、安定した状態に変え、あるいは戦争に飲み込まれそうな状態を平和な状態へと変える。努力し、これを成し遂げるのは、魔法を使うような、奇跡に近いものだと思うのです。』
残った時間で尋ねることが出来たのは、なぜカンバーバッチは、与えられた役にそんなにも深く傾倒できるのか、だった。
すると彼は、不意にAlfred D. Souzaの詩を使って、べリンダ・カーライルが歌った抒情的な世界へと私達を導いた。
『僕は個人的には、天国はこの世にあると信じているのです。』

『それが生き抜いていくためのモットーのひとつです。

One Must Imagine Somebody Happy
人は誰か幸せな人を心に描かなければいけない
Albert Camus posited in his existential treatise The Myth of Sisyphus that there is only one great philosophical problem, and that is the question of suicide, the accelerated process of non-being that has consumed the lives of many a great man and woman in the canon of history, including Cambridge alumni WWII Enigma code-cracker Alan Turing, a man whose mathematical genius saved millions of lives by helping to bring the Second World War to an early conclusion.
Turing’s mind and vision would shape history irreversibly—and yet he was not interested in the political spectrum of the war per se. Like so many great analytical minds his love of mathematics was driven by a desire to crack far more metaphysical problems.
In fact, as a young man he was consumed with the notion that the human mind, or an energy of sorts, could live on after corporeal death. This belief was born from his passionate, unrequited love for his only friend at boarding school, Christopher Morcom.
“The one thing I could relate to, really strongly, was Turing’s humanity,” says Cumberbatch as we swing around a corner narrowly missing another car (“Two Jaguars nearly kissed then,” he quips). “He fell in love with this boy at school, and that was a love that was forbidden. Christopher died tragically of bovine tuberculosis, and Alan set that as his benchmark and everything he did from that point on was to make this first love proud.
He came around to the logical conclusion that a spirit will live on basically by others trying to honor it—it’s terribly moving.”
“I like to mix different roles, I get bored unless I change”. Regarding success: “ I don’t have any secret recipe”, he says. “There is only a method to do something right, and it is valid for every profession: working hard and loving what you do. It’s true that four years ago Sherlock made me famous, but I couldn’t complain about my career before that tv series.”
However he perfectly recalls his worry during his six months of unemployment, when he still called himself Carlton, at the end of dramatic studies. “I couldn’t find a job. “I absolutely need to do something”, I used to say to myself. I understood only later that there are things you can’t control, you might as well concentrate on what you can do.
If there is nodoby willing to offer you a part, you can only be patient and “keep fit”. That’s what I did at the time: while waiting for the right chance, I took part to some theatrical productions of my friends. But you learn as time goes by and from your mistakes: if you don’t make mistakes you don’t even get better”.
On Alan Turing ("he becomes suddenly serious and begins to talk endlessly"):
“Thinking of what he might have suffered makes me furious.We are talking about a society that forbade homosexuals from being in a relationship, that often forced them to marry to hide what they really were. This film, in a sense, praise the misfits, everyone who, for some reason, felt out of place. Something I felt again and again in life. After all, is there someone who hasn’t experienced it in his own small way? I’m talking about the sensation you feel when you arrive at a party and you don’t know anyone. Or the discomfort you feel when you’re young and you see the first pimples on your face”.
Benedict Cumberbatch will be on The Graham Norton Show October 24th!
"Together on Graham’s sofa: Sherlock star Benedict Cumberbatch, starring as Alan Turing in The Imitation Game; Timothy Spall, in new film Mr Turner; comedy favourite Miranda Hart; and musical guests Maroon 5, who perform Animals." (x)

★Redbeardの意味を考えた人がいました。 （出典：silent-fun）
So I didn’t really understand at first why Mycroft would mention the loss of their childhood pet when Sherlock was about to go give his best man’s speech but then I realized that maybe it’s because Redbeard was the last friend that Sherlock lost. Maybe, in a sort of misguided brotherly way, Mycroft was trying to prepare Sherlock for what he was about to endure that evening.
Reason No. 2 why we should thank Mr. Holmes for Johnlock
Imagine the Holmes household: three geniuses and one „moron“.
Now imagine little Sherlock creating something incredible, something someone his age could never do, but he can, because he is very intelligent.
Mycroft would probably call him stupid, because he could make the same thing when he was only half Sherlock’s age.
Mummy would be proud of Sherlock, but I think it’s the father who would be genuinely impressed by Sherlock’s creation.
So every time Sherlock wants to be praised, wants to get validation that he is not stupid, he would run to his father.
And then decades later, after years of hearing „Piss off“, Sherlock meets a man who not only dresses like his father, but is utterly impressed by him and tells him that he is amazing.
He finds someone who praises him for his intelligence, just like his father did.
