Officially, Sherlock is not closed, and simply "went to the perpetual break" while the team that works on the series will not allocate time for the fifth season. However, Martin Freman in an interview with HEART edition noted that, perhaps, it is not worth shooting this fifth season and not at all.
"It always seemed to me that it was necessary to deal with something only until all involved in the project would like to do it - in other words, while the band wants to stay together, you stay together. So ... I do not know, I am just one member of the group. But to bring together us again together, it will take a lot, it's true. And I believe in brevity and savings. What good for Beatles is good for me. Seven years to post together hits - and say goodbye. "
Martin Freeman is not in vain comparing the "Sherlock" team with Beatles - after all, the famous "Liverpool Four" and the truth worked together for only 7 years, from 1963 to 1970, but it is possible that it is due to the fact that the group did not "delay" joint creativity, she It is considered a cult so far. And Sherlock, which began in 2010, also counted 7 years on the air. Moreover: for her 7 years, Beatles released 13 albums, and "Sherlock" for the same 7 years - 13 episodes.
