Sherlock Season 5 has not been renewed even after three years and fans are waiting since then. The crime-detective show that redefined the character of Sherlock Holmes is loved by millions of fans all over the world. Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman became a household name after the Sherlock TV series. BBC has not given any updates on Sherlock Season 5 but one thing is sure that the show is not canceled.
There will obviously be a fifth season of Sherlock due to its massive popularity and the delay is caused as the cast and writers are busy in other projects. The showrunners, Mark Gattis and Steven Moffat have been busy in the new Dracula series. But the recent Coronavirus lockdown has shut every running production and everyone is stuck at their homes. It means that Moffat and Gattis have now time to write Sherlock Season 5 script and here are more updates on the BBC series.
