I'm rather dreading that one. The final ep of the first BF Sherlock season - forget the title off the top of my head - was the only one that wasn't so meta that it could legitimately be called a "Sherlock Holmes Adventure" but at the same time was a combination of a 20-year-old movie and Pat Cornwall's "I'm smarter than Scotland Yard" book... hardly breaking new territory.
And now their original story is once again going to be older ideas dusted off.
TBH, it makes me rather leary that Nick Briggs and the BF crew are now joining the Great Sherlock Holmes debate on the "traditionalist" side... I'm getting a strong impression that they may know the original canon, but they're not at all familiar with the fandom that grew out of that canon over a century ago. Either that, or they think that most of the modern Holmes fans are *only* familiar with the Ritchie and BBC versions.
