Here’s our first proper look at Sir Ian McKellen as Sherlock Holmes in his new film, Mr Holmes.
Sir Ian plays the super sleuth as a 93-year-old now living in retirement with his housekeeper (Laura Linney) and her son.

They’re promoting their book The Dinosaur That Pooped Christmas. Lovely!

Well now there’s more good news for fans as a series of digital short stories tied into each episode of the new series are being released.
Each e-book will be released at midnight following the Monday night episode and will include characters featured in that night’s episode, delving deeper into their lives.
I think this is a brilliant idea!
