So, we've all seen the set photos of Sherlock and John in period clothing - will the Christmas special take place at a costume party? Is that Doctor Who-Lock crossover finally happening? Is it an acid-trip dream sequence?
Well, wonder no more! (Well, slightly less...) For Moffat has made this statement to Entertainment Weekly...
“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 90-minute episode is finished filming, but will not premiere until the holidays. When we have a date, you all will be the first to know!
So what do you think? A stand-alone ramdom episode just so we can see them in Victorian costumes? Hmmm....
