Fans of detective series “Sherlock” has earned the title of most patient. As you know, instead of the several months of hiatus between seasons of the series, fans of the film adaptation of Arthur Conan Doyle have to wait more than a year. Soon (relatively) we again see Sherlock Holmes and John Watson in action. The fourth season is already filmed and is in the final stages of installation.

Still, the creators of this detective teleserie was extremely evasive, answering a question of journalists about whether there will be a fifth season? By the same leading role – Benedict Cumberbatch – has been more honest and straightforward.

A fourth season, according to the actor, has all chances to be the last, “Maybe that will be the end of an era. At least it feels like that. Everything goes to the fact that to continue would be impossible. But we never say “never” when it comes to this show,” said the actor in an interview with GQ magazine.

He stressed that the end is near and the future of the series uncertain.

We will remind, the premiere of the fourth season of “Sherlock” to be held in January 2017. Earlier were announced the names of the first episodes.
