Arriving in time for the New Year comes a second series of Mark Gatiss and Steven Moffat’s wildly inventive Sherlock, which takes the classic stories from Arthur Conan Doyle and drops them directly in the hustle and bustle of modern London.
Smartphones, blogs, laptops and fancy gadgetry all become part of the story-telling as Doyle’s clever creations are given a modern day spin. Leading all of this unlikely but massively successful creation are the odd couple of Benedict Cumberbatch as the genius yet friction-inducing eponymous detective, and Martin Freeman as his long-suffering army doctor companion, Doctor Watson.
