With the Sherlock winter special only 3 weeks away, the series’ official Youtube channel has whetted our appetites (like we weren’t already salivating) by releasing a new 3-minute behind-the-scenes look at the episode! Watch it below:Īlternatively, if you don’t fancy sitting through some Sherlocky goodness (personally, we can’t stop watching Rupert Graves’ massive muttonchops) we’ve picked out a few choice quotes. “I think it’s because I’m in some of it now,” adds Martin Freeman, more succintly. “I think it is do with Conan Doyle’s extraordinary invention which has a universal appeal to all nationalities.” “I think the enduring appeal of Sherlock Holmes has always been global, actually,” says Benedict. That was vaguely amusing for about four seconds.”Īnd the other puts the tough question to the cast of ‘why is Sherlock such a global success?’ While Martin himself backs up the statement by admitting, with characteristic drollness: “I slipped over yesterday. “Martin Freeman’s probably the funniest thing that’s happened on set recently,” says Benedict. The first sees the cast grilled on their favourite funny moments from filming The Abominable Bride. Already-converted Sherlock fans will be in heaven, while those new to this adaptation are given a self-contained story to lure them in.UPDATE: The Sherlock youtube channel have released two more behind-the-scenes features. It turns out the real culprit isn't those meddling kids but instead a cabal with aims sympathetic to modern tastes (even if their methods are suspect). Having the murderous plot at first appear like a ghost story is a fun Scooby Doo touch, too. When an inspector describes a murder scene, we see Holmes' view: He "fast-forwards" through some parts, then freezes the scene right where he needs to see something - a detail anyone else would miss. But the quick-witted chemistry between Cumberbatch and Watson is as potent in The Abominable Bride as ever, and the swooping camera injects a modern note. The vintage clothing, plot contrivances - retro politics play a big part - and crime-solving techniques are all things that any self-respecting PBS-watcher has seen on other Mystery! series. It turns out that injecting some steampunk-era technology and ghostly imagery into a Sherlock and Holmes procedural is a lot of fun.
