Sherlock Victorian Special

Don't know whether you've heard, but it looks very much like Sherlock's Christmas Special will be set in the Victorian period - good news for any period drama fans amongst you.

Sherlock Holmes was created by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle in the 1880s, a time when policing and detective work was new and novel to the general public, and became arguably the most famous fictional detective of all time. There have been numerous adaptations and re-adaptations of the great detective over the years - not least the recent Robert Downey Junior films, the immensely popular Benedict Cumberbatch Sherlock series, and the US-set Elementary which stars Jonny Lee Miller.

We'll have to wait and see if the Christmas Special comes up to the standards of Sherlock fans (who are notoriously passionate,) - should be interesting!
