It is finally official! The pre-production for the next season of BBC’s hit show “Sherlock” is finally happening! The evidence stems from some tweets co-writer and co-creator Mark Gatiss wrote on his Twitter account.

The first tweet from Gatiss read, “Production meeting done now #Sherlock read-through tomorrow! Looking forward to the 221b reunion.”

The second tweet read, “The best and the wisest men whom I have ever known. Sort of. #Sherlock”. The men he was referring to are the actors who play John and Sherlock, Martin Freeman and Benedict Cumberbatch. There was also a picture that went along with the tweet, showing the two actors having fun while doing the read-through of Season Two’s scripts. (If you’re someone heavy in the Sherlock fandom, save the Twitpic now!)

“Sherlock” is the retelling of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s Victorian-era sleuth and his friend, Dr. John Watson, except this time, the stories have been transported to the 21st century.
