More meta on s3, bit of s4.

I can't be the only one still hungry for speculation... right?   A few of the tumblr users -- whose meta I loved -- have gone dormant.  Final Problem said she's reluctantly speculating, but if you're watching her Moran posts, it looks like that's changed.  :)

About that missing actor's name [from Empty Hearse] and was his character apprehended -- or not?

And why wasn't he credited?  And... and... that elevator button.

(For more, use FP's tag; here's her original LONG intro-meta on Moran .)

Some HLV speculation about something I'd been wondering about, i.e, recreational meta from Three Patch Podcast.  Very pleased someone else had thought it through!

Easter candy -- chocolate, honest!

There is a 6-foot sculpture in chocolate of Benedict, per Good Housekeeping.  I am not making this up!  Apparently it isn't an April Fools Day joke either...

Methinks someone thought they could outdo Pei's Cumbercupcakes.  Of course not.

I finally saw Penglings!  Err... Penguins of Madagascar.  Twice.

Grab bag: April cons, vids, etc.

Fan vids!  You've missed them, you know.  ;)

Moonmouse did two silly ones that I like.  It took several watches before I stopped cracking up, in fact.

TMBG via Moonmouse!  Particle Man (Sherlock BBC) and Birdhouse In Your Soul (Sherlock and John + They Might Be Giants).

In the s3 spoiler zone:  liar | Sherlock BBC by Katrin Depp; also expect feels.

Remember Letters Live?  Not only is Letters Live back -- and with Dear Bessie again too -- but Sunny March promises to tape it for us.

Per the Guardian, "Letters Live takes place from 31 March to 4 April and will raise money for literacy charities the Reading Agency, First Story and Ministry of Stories."

"Yours in distress" Benedict Cumberbatch reads Alan Turing's letter to Norman Routledge video... in character as Alan Turing.

Great news for U.S. fans! #BenedictCumberbatch's @SunnyMarchLtd to make recordings of celeb readings for @LettersLive http://t.co/1QtbWgkoys

Sherlock special 2015.

Interrupting your countdown to Christmas with this announcement.  For those who followed ANY of the setlock news, particularly on costumes and setting, part of this scoop won't be a spoiler to you.

Paraphrased version without spoilers:  So the Word of God is that the 2015 Special is AU of Sherlock.

No, really.  Only Mofftiss would make an alternate version of their own alternate version of Sherlock Holmes.

Graham Moore; also Cumberbatched. ;)

That's a 2014 excerpt from a four-part set; here's the first of Standard Talks: BAFTA New York Part 1 of 4.  (In part 4, Ben gets very quiet and hard to hear.)
