"Attention Steven Moffat acolytes! The fourth season of Sherlock won't arrive till at least early 2016, but the one-off Christmas special set in Victorian England is real enough to have a trailer. See the period-appropriate mustaches! See horse-drawn carriages! See Watson (Martin Freeman) give Sherlock (Benedict Cumberbatch) guff for not wearing the damn deerstalker hat! It's the same 221B Baker Street you've always loved. It's just got a lot more candlelight. Plot details for the special have not yet been disclosed, so we don't know if it will be based on a classic story by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, or if it's a new adventure entirely for our intrepid sleuths. Either way, this will make for a merry Christmas indeed" YouTube link Amicalement

It's the same 221B Baker Street No, it's not. It's some weird pastiche of some elements of the characters from Conan Doyle's classic short stories. Whether you enjoy this or not; it's not Sherlock Holmes & Watson. |

It is because people love the new incarnation, possibly more than the "original" (the same 221B Baker Street that is) |

Not all of us like the new incarnation. Watched this one once but it didn't float my boat. |

Let's give them a chance…! (smile)
The two actors are great!. Amicalement

By all means people can enjoy this pastiche. I'd think it more accurate if they called it "Shlock Holmes" though. |
