Steve Thompson - the man who penned series two's dramatic finale The Reichenbach Fall - will write the second instalment of the new series under the title The Sign of Three.
Thompson was also the writer of series one episode The Blind Banker and has worked on Doctor Who's upcoming series 7b episode Journey to the Centre of the Tardis.
Fans of the Sherlock Holmes books will notice the significance of the latest episode title which relates to Arthur Conan Doyle's novel The Sign of Four in which Watson meets his future wife Mary Morstan.
Speculation that series three might see Martin Freeman's Waston [sic] meet his love match began in earnest a fortnight ago when news broke that Freeman's real-life partner Amanda Abbington had joined the cast. When asked whether the new title was confirmation of this, Gatiss and Moffat simply repeated the official quote first circulated two weeks ago, saying Abbington's is a role “that significantly impacts upon the lives of John and Sherlock”.
