Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman both did a good job, seemed way to obvious who the killer was after you saw the woman in pink dead; which was annoying knowing who the killer was the entire time while Sherlock didn't it felt wrong, feels like the script will let the show down although it was only the first episode. :unsure:

I agree, the script in some parts was a bit of a let-down but entertaining nonetheless. I'm looking forward to the next episode.

The BBC is eager to make more episodes of Sherlock, it has been revealed.

The modern-day re-imagining of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's literary detective attracted an impressive 7.5m viewers on its launch last Sunday, and BBC bosses are apparently keen to produce a longer series of the show.

"To say the top brass are made up by the Holmes ratings is an understatement," a source told The Sun.

"They really want to do more so the question is not really if, but how and when can we do them."

Most excellent news.

Hopefully they can time it right and have one great BBC series lead into another, I'd happily take say three months of Doctor Who followed by three months of Sherlock and so on.

I'd rather they keep it to 3 episodes or 6 at most purely because you don't to milk it to much....so say 6 episodes a year would be good.

Sherlock is on the verge of being renewed for a second series by the BBC, the corporation confirmed today.

Written by Doctor Who's Steven Moffat and Mark Gatiss, the first episode of the modern-day adaptation premiered with a huge audience of 7.5 million, and was well-received by critics.

"We'd like to do more. But if we do, they won't air for at least a year. Drama takes at least a year to get made and Steven is also really busy with Doctor Who," head of drama Ben Stephenson said in a statement.

Sherlock, which stars Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman, continues this Sunday, with 'The Blind Banker' - the second of three episodes - airing at the slightly earlier time of 8.30pm.

Such an awesome mini-series. Gutted that it is only three episodes. The chemistry between the actors is amazing, and the screen-writing is truly superb! I seriously hope that this gets picked up for a second series and a longer one!

its been talked about 3 more but we would have to wait for a year due to Moffats commitment with Doctor Who

      I bought this game. Played it for an hour, and then got a refund from Steam. Not a fun game at all.

    • Forza Horizon 6 gets another hotfix for one of the game's online modes

      By TarasBuria · Posted

      Forza Horizon 6 gets another hotfix for one of the game's online modes by Taras Buria Recently, Forza Horizon 6 players discovered an interesting glitch that allowed farming a crazy amount of in-game credits in a few minutes. Playground Games quickly pulled the plug on the exploit by disabling one of the game's online modes, and today, the studio is rolling out another hotfix. In my review, I complained about the game still showering gamers with cars, credits, and wheelspins. As such, earning money in Forza Horizon 6 is not a particularly difficult task. You simply have to play the game, crazy, I know. However, people still found an easier path to becoming a billionaire in Forza Horizon 6. All you had to do was purchase the Hummer EV, install a specific tune, shift in reverse while going at about 15 MPH, hit a wall, and get launched into the stratosphere at the speed of light. While mid-air, launch Eliminator and quickly get eliminated. Boom, the game just awarded you with a few million in-game credits. Initially, Playground Games disabled Eliminator to prevent people from farming credits. Now, following the release of the first balancing update, developers are rolling out a new update that re-enables Eliminator and gives users a free McLaren Sabre as a gesture of goodwill. Here is the changelog: One critical issue remains unpatched, though. There are quite a few reports of the game wiping gamers' saves, and developers are still looking into that. To avoid potential data loss, Playground Games recommends taking one of the steps outlined in a previously published support article.
