As I write this, I have not seen the episode. However, this is a scheduled post and will probably be posted after I see S4 Ep3. It is currently 6pm on the East Coast of the lovely US of A. It is Sunday, Jan 15 and I will not watch the episode until either tomorrow morning, if it's on the Masterpiece website by then OR tomorrow night. So I know nothing, yet.
However, since season 3 ended, I have done a little research here and there about the third Holmes brother.
Sherrinford Holmes. Apparently he is the eldest, according to he information I have gathered. Which is great because as much as I love Mycroft, it's good to know that there is someone else carrying the Holmes family on their shoulders, besides their parents of course!
I didn't do TOO MUCH research on Sherrinford to keep some mystery to him. And at first, I really supported the idea of Tom Hiddleston being the third Holmes brother, however, after learning that Sherrinford is the meant to be the eldest, I changed my mind quite a bit.
When Mycroft is on the phone and asks to be put through to Sherrinford, I don't know why, but I had the feeling he was calling a prison. Meaning the eldest Holmes might be psychotic.
I do not think that Eurus is Sherrinford, simply because Sherlock made a fuss last episode about people always stopping at three.
In a perfect world, I personally would cast Mark Strong as Sherrinford, because he's a magnificent actor and I feel like he'd blow us all away.
For all I know, I could be wrong and Sherrinford could be Eurus' first name, Like Sherlock is really William
So there you go. And fun fact that most people already know, Strong portrayed a villain in Robert Downey Jr. Sherlock films.
I bid everyone a good night and hope the episode is amazing. I shall watch it when I can tomorrow. Whenever, I watch it, I will come back to scream about it. Just letting you guys know that.
I hope the episode is good!
