While U.S. fans are still waiting for the second season of the BBC’s “Sherlock” to air on PBS in May, news from across the pond is pegging the promised third season could be more than a year away.
“Sherlock” executive producer Beryl Vertue tells the BBC’s Virtue Magazine that the third season of the Benedict Cumberbatch/Martin Freeman update of the Sir Arthur Conan Doyle tales won’t even go into production until 2013.
Doing a little basic math that means even British fans probably wouldn’t see new episodes until at least summer 2013 and the wait would be even longer in the U.S.
