Is it just me or does it seem like everything is getting a makeover or a reboot these days? I know the winds of change are always blowing but sometimes it feels like everything is the same, though perhaps just slightly different. Take the legendary Sherlock Holmes, for instance. New movies, a couple of ongoing television programs, and several different comics. Some are modern, some are not. Every one of them is ever so slightly different in the concept, few are spectacular. None of them, however, are as far off the beaten path as Watson And Holmes.

This particular incarnation features two men, both African-American, with a distinct sense of civic duty. We still have Holmes as a private investigator with uncanny deduction skills but this time he’s a bit more action oriented. His well-known and steadfast companion is still in the medical field but this time he’s an intern and far more athletic than in versions past. The setting is very urban, gang activity is a way of life and death is commonplace. A place where the innocent and the guilt live side by side and the line between them is blurred. And even though the status quo is so disheartening, the locals are terrified of what might happen were they to become involved in anything.

Sherlock wedding Sherlock Holmes box

Tonight, the UK will get the second episode of Season 3 of Sherlock, titled “The Sign of Three,” which sees John Watson (Martin Freeman) getting married to his love Mary Morstan (played by Freeman’s real-life love, actress Amanda Abbington). Sherlock Holmes (Benedict Cumberbatch) is the best man and we all know how Sherlock behaves in social situations, so the show is hyping that the famous detective will face his greatest challenge — delivering the best man’s toast.

The episode will involve much more than the wedding, but for now, the BBC One has released several images from John and Mary’s wedding, which you can view here below.
