Creator and star of Sherlock, Mark Gatiss, has dismissed rumours that the next season of the show would be a one-off special.
Speaking at the TV BAFTAs the star revealed that having a fourth series was still “the plan”, despite the fact that Martin Freeman previously suggested that the show could be back for a film.
“There was talk [of a single film] amongst people who have nothing to do with Sherlock, I’m afraid,” said Gatiss, who plays Mycroft Holmes in the series. He added that the Sherlock team are “moving closer to agreeing [shooting] dates”.
“Benedict and Martin’s schedules, Steven’s schedule, my schedule, everybody’s schedule – it’s like a jigsaw puzzle,” he added.
“But both are really very keen to carry on and as I say, we have made progress”. We can’t wait.
