Steven Moffat:Â "We'll be back, fairly obviously... We'll get them made as quickly as we can!"
Steven Moffat:Â "You don't know what's going on there [with the return of Moriarty]. We know what's going on there, but we're not telling you! It must be hell watching this show! But obviously we enjoyed the fact that we get to see more of the wonderful Andrew Scott as Moriarty."
Steven Moffat:Â "Rather excitingly, Mark [Gatiss] and I, for no particular reason, we just got out of the rain and sat at the top of the [Sherlock] production us and we just started plotting out what we could do in the future - and we plotted out the whole of Series 4 and 5."
BBC Press Office:Â "[There is] nothing the BBC can say officially as yet [confirming Series 4]."
Martin Freeman:Â "I've not read any new scripts. So all I know is we all like the show, we all want to keep doing it for as long as we want to do it and as long as we enjoy it."
Benedict Cumberbatch:Â "I'm going to keep going with [Sherlock]. I play enough other mad people to vary the palate of what I'm scrabbling around in my head as a storyteller... I love [playing Sherlock]. I find it very invigorating."
Andrew Scott:Â "[The producers] didn't have to convince me to come back because we knew all along Jim Moriarty would return. That's what we always planned to do."
Steven Moffat:Â "Mary's absolutely here [in Series 4]. We don't just off her. How would that be at the start of the next series. 'Where's Mary?' 'Dead!'"
Steven Moffat:Â "We've worked out what we want to do [in Series 4 and 5]. But it wasn't very professional, we didn't schedule a meeting or anything. It was just enthusiasm. Like fan boys, we got excited about what we could do next with Sherlock Holmes."
Steven Moffat:Â "I don't think that [killing Magnussen] will change Sherlock. He certainly won't be haunted by guilt. He's way in control of his emotions enough to say, 'It's time to switch that man off.' And again, he's friends with John, who was laughing after he shot a guy minutes after he did it. These are dangerous boys."
Andrew Scott:Â "I think it's very important with Moriarty that you don't overuse him. I think the reason he's been a success is because he has a mystery."
Steven Moffat:Â "I can't really say what we're doing with [Moriarty's return], but there is no last-minute whim in this. We've had what we're going to do with Moriarty in place from before the second season. Exactly what we're going to do."
Steven Moffat:Â "Sue [Vertue, Sherlock's producer, is] working on the schedules right now. You know, we'll do what we can, but with no sacrifice in quality - that's the thing. If people have to wait two years, they'll have to wait two years."
Amanda Abbington:Â "We don't know story lines [for Series 4] yet. Well, we do know some things but aren't allowed to say. What we do know is amazing."
Steven Moffat:Â "The fact that we only do it occasionally means it's not swamping anyone's schedule. Eventually, I'll stop doing Doctor Who, because it stops me doing anything else. But Sherlock doesn't swamp my schedule, doesn't swamp anyone. So I could imagine we'll come back and do Sherlock fairly often for many more years, rather than very often for a few years."
Sue Vertue:Â You might not always have three [episodes per series], possibly, but they'll stay that [90-minute] length. It's a good length, I think."
Andrew Scott:Â "All of out plans on Sherlock are long-term ones, so yeah, I certainly had a feeling that Moriarty's storyline wasn't over... I knew about that stuff years ago."
Andrew Scott:Â "It's a question of getting everybody together, really. Everybody is super-busy - I wouldn't like to be the production scheduler on Sherlock!"
