Sherlock fans might have a bit of wait upon them. It could be at least a couple of years before fans see another episode of Sherlock. That comes from one of the creators of the series.

Steven Moffat spoke about the future of the BBC series in an interview with Radio Times. He said the following:

“Nobody has ever closed the door on Sherlock – we just say the same thing all the time and it gets quoted different ways. We haven’t got an immediate plan, but I would remain surprised, given the collective enthusiasm we have for it, if we didn’t do it again. When, I don’t know. I think maybe the time for a longer gap is upon us, I don’t know. A longer gap? They’re always long gaps! We’re doing Dracula, which is going to take two years at least. We’re not going to do Sherlock whilst we’re doing Dracula. So it’s not going to happen in the immediate future. Never say never, but no – we don’t have an idea [right now]. I could see us making more Sherlocks,” Moffat concluded. “I could see us making Sherlocks way in the future. It’s not the kind of show that has to come back all the time. It can revisit. Every time Sherlock comes back it’s a reunion show.”

Do you want more Sherlock? How long are you willing to wait? Tell us what you think.
