I asked Sue and she’s put the rumours to bed!

I don’t know how to feel about this

Well we did want a confirmation? So…

Read the notes on this.  Read the denials.  Read the continued unshakeable belief that they’re still lying, that a fourth ep is on its way, they need to hold onto the secret just a little bit longer….

Once again.  Once AGAIN after a direct, clear, concise answer to their question they insist it’s “fake”, that “there’s something more coming”, that “there’s a LOST SPECIAL” – because they didn’t get what they wanted.

The creators of Sherlock are not doing this to them.  They are doing it to themselves.

You were told.

The parallels with the current international political scene are inescapable. Reality has been subsumed into wishful thinking. And truth no longer matters. 

@theleftpill Although I share your concern about this, it’s not entirely their fault, or their decision. This is massively the result of the discours the creators have with the fandom, and especially one rule they repeated many times: We lie. 

A few days ago I thought back on all the interviews JKR gave, before HP7 was published. And she didn’t need this stupid rule of everything could be a lie. If she didn’t want to answer a question, she just said that it would spoil too much. It’s so easy. Mofftiss chose a different route, that in my opinion wasn’t a very healthy one for the creator/fandom relationship.
