It's hard to say if this is good news or bad news for "Sherlock" fans, but series star Martin Freeman has now mentioned that there could be a "one-off special" coming to the series. Could this special take the place of the much-anticipated "Sherlock" Season 4?
不知道这对《神探夏洛克》的粉丝们来说是好消息还是坏消息，在剧中扮演花生的Martin Freeman表示，该剧很可能会出一集特别集。那么有没有可能用这个特别集来代替颇受期待的《神探夏洛克》第四季呢？
'[Executive producer and co-star] Mark Gatiss may beat me up, there is an idea for this one-off special that's such a good idea," Freeman explained when talking about the future of his beloved mystery series. "As I was listening to it, I thought, 'We've just got to do this.' And I don't know when we are going to be able to do it, unfortunately."
“（《神探夏洛克》制片人兼演员）Mark Gatiss提了个好主意，可以制作一个特别集，”Freeman在和记者们说到《神探夏洛克》的未来时提到。“我听到这个主意的时候就在想，‘我们就这么办吧。’不过我不知道这部特别集开始制作的具体时间。”
This news comes shortly after Freeman made it clear that plans to film at least part of "Sherlock" Season 4 in 2014 had been scrapped. If there is no time possible for either a special or a full season, when will "Sherlock" actually return?
不久前Freeman曾经明确表示《神探夏洛克》原定于2014年开始拍摄的计划已经因为演员们的档期问题被延期，如果剧中的演员们真的因为档期原因不能聚到一起，那么《神探夏洛克》到底会不会回归呢？
