The Hearse is Empty No More

Itried

Today marks the return of BBC’s Sherlock, after a two-year hiatus. The series will pick up after the dramatic (and traumatic) events of The Reichenbach Fall, the last episode of the second series. The first episode of this series, The Empty Hearse (written by Mark Gatiss), will be based on the canon story (the Conan Doyle Novels), The Adventure of the Empty House; this adventure will mark Sherlock’s return to London, and most importantly, John Watson’s life.

MONTHS of speculation from fans will be cleared out today as this promising episode could finally reveal how Sherlock survived the fall and if John, as most of the fans have said in their headcanons, will punch Sherlock instead of just fainting like he did in the novels.

The BBC is adamant in their promotions and very purposeful in their choice of material. This time, they’ve put a crime-scene-esque ouline of Sherlock’s body outside St. Bart’s hospital (where he jumped off of the roof)

Hit right in the feels

So, tune in to BBC one at 9PM today for The Empty Hearse, and stock up on shock blankets. Will probably need those.

Also, I’ll include a bonus: for those who can’t watch the series in the UK, a stream is available here

 

 

Sherlock Holmes goes to Russia; With Love!

The Russian adaptation of Arthur Conan Doyle’s most famous work, Sherlock Holmes,  follows a 27-year old Holmes, played by Igor Petrenko, and a 42-year old Watson , played by Andrey Panin (who died before he could finish dubbing for the production).

The series will follow five original stories, and not purely borrowing from Doyle’s original material. However, the adventure begins the way it traditionally has; in the cobblestone roads of Victorian London, Dr. John Watson, having been invalidated from the war in Afghanistan, searches for a flat (apartment) to live in. Through that search, he meets Sherlock Holmes, and together they find a flat owned by a Ms. Hudson. Dr. Watson soon discovers that his new flatmate is a consulting detective and he is soon roped into the mysterious, underground, and dangerous side of London. 

The new series will premiere tomorrow, November 18,  at 9:00 P.M. , on Russia1.
