The much-awaited annual fanfest of San Diego Comic-Con is around the corner, and makers of Sherlock have just announced that they will be at Hall H to talk about the show.

The official handle of one of BBC's most popular shows tweeted:

Christ Hardwick of the Nerdist will conduct the panel in Hall H at 10 am (PST) on Sunday, July 24.

Showrunners and writers Steven Moffat and Mark Gatiss will be accompanied by producer Sue Vertue and Amanda Abbington, who plays Mary Watson on the show.

Though the lead actors of Sherlock, Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman will not attend the Comic-Con, we can expect some surprise from them.

To those who have forgotten, at SDCC 2015, the fans were treated to a clip featuring Cumberbatch, Andrew Scott and Mark Gatiss.

Then came the teaser for the stand alone episode The Abominable Bride, which was called Sherlock Special at the time.

Shooting for the season 4 of Sherlock is already underway. Fans at Hall H and those who will be following the event online, can expect such treats for the upcoming season. If I am to speculate, there is a good chance that names of the episodes for season 4 will be revealed at the panel. Fans can also expect a teaser!

The official Twitter handle of Sherlock (@Sherlock) will be live-tweeting the event. So you can start your digital stalking there.

Are you excited?
