I've gone for option three.

I see nothing particularly 'special' about the last season. I think it's safe to say that if this year was not the 50th, then we would still have had a season of the show on the air. It's a shame though that we have had less during this particular year.

As far as the anniversary goes though it doesn't feel like it is going to be much of an event. Yes, we are getting a special episode and that is awesome, but if truth be told I'm actually more excited for the docudrama by Gatiss than I am about the special. We've had no official hints or teasers or anything to whet our appetites, just the knowledge that it is there. There has been a lot of merchandise to celebrate, and that's awesome, but how many people who aren't specifically looking for it will actually be aware of it. And at the risk of sounding ungrateful, I really think the BBC should have commissioned something more than a 60 minute episode to celebrate what has been their biggest cash cow for the last 50 years. Anything is awesome and better than nothing, but it feels like a bit of a whimper tbh and I think it's a huge shame.
