Think I saw those on Buzzfeed yesterday (as well as tumblr) but damn if the shots from 'Sign of Three' aren't gorgeous.

Like raindoc said, the pics themselves are not terribly spoilery since it's all canon stuff but again, if you haven't seen any of the setlock pics during the filming of Season 3 then up to you to decide if you want to look at them or not.
I thought the posted pics were fine since they're official stuff from the BBC and are canon.

Okay I clicked and you are right, not spoilery for those who've read the canon. Whew.
Wait a tic though.
On the picture of the new ahem, antagonist...The caption doesn't read
Charles Augustus Milverton
Edit:
I guess they just changed the name a bit? Eh. Okay.

Told you.
I think they changed the name to fit more with the actor's Danish roots a while back when they announced him. Personally, it's fine with me since this is an adaptation after all.

Yeah that works, I just remember being super excited when they announced it felt slightly betrayed for a moment. OVER IT.

Heh, the initials are still the same so that's all that matters.
Rewatching everything this weekend, though I'll probably listen to commentary while watching. Will be fun.

Really excited to see
make his appearance on the show.

I've been spoilering his name every time just in case. I figure anything that hasn't been mentioned/aired on the show is a spoiler.

Rewatching this in between episode of Doctor Who with the missus, we both agree on one thing. It's Cumberbatch who gets all the attention, but we like Freeman's Watson much better.

I often say I think he's the best actor on the show. He's amazing. And while Cumberbatch does a great job too, Freeman constantly outclasses him.
Cumberbatch is prettier though

I didn't want to say it, because I didn't want to shit up a swell thread with my first post, but I agree. Well, with the Freeman being the better actor. He's Watson and he's Bilbo and he's Oliver. With Cumberbatch, while he does a fantastic job at what he does, I see Sherlock, Sherlock in Space and coming soon, Sherlock fighting Nazis with his brain. Again, he does great at the thing he does, but all in all, Freeman is better.
They do have the best Brit Bromance this side of Frost/Pegg though

They really do. And he does incredibly I think at the role of Sherlock, but Freeman is so much more subtle and nuanced.
He so does. Just has a presence that absorbs everything.
Im not clicking on anything. Im outta here until 1st ep is aired.
Here have a gif:
Several of us have been trying to be very careful with canon knowledge in the thread, so you really don't have anything to worry about

You're a big guy.
While he will get typecast in Sherlock-esque roles, but Cumberbatch is extremely skilled too. In little-known BBC show Parade's End he played the antithesis of Sherlock - awkward, rigid, proper - and nailed it.

Still need to watch my copy of Parade's End but I do think that BC is a solid actor - he was great in Frankenstein.
Martin's fantastic too, though to me, he'll always be the one actor in Love Actually to me.
The entire cast is quite solid, so I'm quite glad of the actors assembled for this show.

Ditto. Only canon I've read is Hound of Baskervilles.

The programme itself is a bit disappointing, though Rebecca Hall is gorgeous as ever.
Same, we're almost there anyway.

Spoiler free review from Sherlockology.
"The Empty Hearse is infused with uproarious comedy, wicked and knowing writing, huge surprises, lovely in-jokes and thrilling action, all while taking us to places in London we haven't been before onscreen in the series. But it is also hugely concerned with the instant that Sherlock Holmes and John Watson come face to face with each other again, and in that singular spine chilling moment, a scene that effortlessly shifts tone in seconds thanks to the sterling performances of the two leading actors, it certainly does not disappoint."
Oh God... If I may borrow one of Fiction's gifs...

Allow me to supply more Supernatural themed GIFs that seem appropriate for that review:
EDIT: Seriously, has it really been two years since series 2 premiered? It feels both longer and not that long. But the wait is almost over. GET HYPED, PEOPLE!

Oh my GOD I'm going to explode. Also, whatever dialog is happening in the the third photo of that DigitalSpy link is going to be fantastic.

The wait until Wednesday is going to feel longer to me than the past two years.

So I'm watching the show from the beginning. Is there ever resolution to the first season cliffhanger? Since the next season's first ep. Doesn't seem to shed any light.

They resolve it within moments of the second series starting. I personally thought the resolution to the series 1 cliffhanger was hilarious. It was all about the ringtone.

Not sure where you need a subscription for, but you should have two options. Either go to the episode when it just is going to air and there should be the option to watch it live. Or, you could wait an hour or so and you should just be able to download the episode after it aired, which is what I do.
EDIT: I don't have used the iPad app, but I assume it works the same.
EDIT 2: Apparently you can also use the channels, and if it is on a program that is allowed to be streamed online it has watch live for me. So cycle through the channels, see if you get something.

If I am in the UK, I can watch on I iPlayer without any issues right?

Should be able to, as long as you have a TV licence. You still can watch it without, but you might get a letter saying "Hey you've been watching TV without a licence, stop or pay pls". Unless you mean non-live in which case you're good.
