Sherlock‘s Christmas Special Is Going all Out With Its Costumes – Pip pip, cheerio!

I’m still not sure why BBC’s modern Holmesian adaptation is suddenly going for the Victorian look after all, but I’m on board. Wait, what am I saying? Steven Moffat is the showrunner. Of course they’re doing a Victorian special. Name me one Moffat-led Doctor Who Christmas that didn’t have some fancy old-timey clothing in it.

(That Twitter user is referring to this Rap Battles of History video, by the way.)

Want some more? Yeah, you want some more. Say whatever you like about the quality of the show itself, but I defy you not to be enthralled with tailored vests and deerstalker hats. Now, when do we get Lucy Liu in a governess dress?
