→Lars: That’s what I’m trying to do, you know – not make him too big, but suck in the attention.

→Steven: This is one of the very few occasions we get Sherlock Holmes expressing hatred. Why does Sherlock hate him above a murderer? What Charles Augustus M does is he exploits people who are different, and exploits people who have secrets; and there’s something in Sherlock Holmes that just rises like a tiger in the face of it.

→Mark: Young men of fashion took to wearing black crepe in their top hats, and stuff like that. Even though we were very kind and only actually killed him for five minutes!

→Steven: Yeah.

→Mark: Well, yes! We sort of had a telescoped version of what happened to Doyle when he killed off Sherlock. Doyle was attacked in the street, wasn’t he?

→Steven: ... which might reasonably have happened in the story, but we thought that would be over the top.

→Sue: My fear was that they’d come back after two years and ... you know, they’d been in The Hobbit and Star Trek and all these things, and be sort of ... don’t know, tricky. But they weren’t. I mean, it’s lovely and we’ve had a great time doing it.

→Louise Brealey (sitting at the kitchen table in the 221B set): Because it’s such a, you know, phenomenon, it just means that you get recognised in the most odd places. But it’s not really about that – it just opens lots and lots of doors. It’s the gift that keeps on giving. And I know that it’s been good to, like, everybody who’s been involved with it.

→Steven (nodding): Yes.

→Mark: ... if you start trying to direct it towards what you think people will like, or what you think they might fear. We just have to make it for ourselves. It’s a hundred-year-old spoiler, but Doctor Watson does marry Mary Morstan; and you get that sort of slightly-miffed, “You’re not allowed to do this. You’ll spoil it.” But it’s our show. And I dare say what happens is, when the episodes are revealed, you will see that we don’t spoil it, because we don’t want to.

→Sue Vertue (sitting at the bottom of the stairs in the 221 set): You never quite know what’s gonna happen with Sherlock. When I read the scripts ... ’cause Steven and Mark will tell me certain things and then not tell me ... You know, Steven won’t tell me a lot when he’s writing it. And he also sometimes delivers in chunks, which is quite interesting, ’cause he just keeps doing cliffhanger after cliffhanger. You keep going ... (she opens her eyes wide and gasps).

→Mark: Throwing it all into a pot and saying, “Well, here’s a general shape; oh, and here’s a story I’d love to do. What if Sherlock was a best man? What if ...? What if we put him in here?” It’s like picking ... picking him up and putting him into an unusual situation. It’s the sort of thing that can lead to all kinds of exciting possibilities.

→Mark: We were looking, really, for an obvious arc to a third series. What presents itself straight away is the incredible drama of him coming back from the dead.

→Lars Mikkelsen (sitting on some steps near the glass window of the sitting room in the real house that doubled as Appledore): It’s such a good script, isn’t it? I mean, it’s just ... You’re misled, as an audience, and I think that’s lovely.
