I had to start with the Legos.  Because they're -- as Arthur would say -- BRILLIANT.  So this is a bit of a grab bag.  Enjoy!

Christmas and Team SH Tweets.

And because we can't stop thinking about our Christmas gift coming from the BBC...

Here's a trailer that is mildly spoilery for the special, using Mark's text (in second Tweet).

Dearest @Markgatiss STOP Your telegram to Dr Watson has arrived STOP #Telegram221B pic.twitter.com/8qWYIdeeB5

My dear Watson. Stop. See you on the television and the kinema on New Year’s Day! Stop. Please don’t ever. Stop. #Telegram221b

Team Sherlock (!) and Dr. Strange.

Actually, to sum up -- this is all Twittery and links which includes the Moff's award [go, Steven!] via Louis Moffat, plus Mark's interview, and then it's all Ben:  Little Favour, Dr. Strange, Hollow Crown's Richard III.

And there's also new promo pictures of Ben as Richard III out.  They must be on tumblr -- and certainly on Twitter! -- 'cause I'm not finding them via Google.  8(  Apparently the gif and the pics are clipped from the trailer for the BBC's upcoming show lineup.

Awards: Ben's CBE! Moff's OBE.

Wayyyy too many Tweets... maybe a link or two as well.  ;b

Congratulations again, Mr. Cumberbatch. Hope you will be a sir one day! #CBE pic.twitter.com/VvWcCukG2A

The BBC on Honours, including CBE.  Ben's agency says "Congratulations to our newest "Commander of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire" (and no, I didn't know what CBE stood for either!).
