"Sherlock Holmes" theorists say that Sherrinford may be the mentor that honed Jim Moriarty into the deadly enemy that he has been in the BBC series. When Jim Moriarty returns in "Sherlock Season 4" Episode 3, his link to Sherrinford will finally be revealed to Holmes.
"Sherlock Holmes" theory at Baker Street pointed to backstories where Sherrinford was no saint. Unlike Sherlock Holmes, Sherrinford is known to use his extraordinary intellect for villainy.
Outside the "Sherlock Holmes" canon, Sherrinford had been depicted as the eldest Holmes. The "Sherlock Holmes" theory on Baker Street further points out that, in the same way that Mycroft mentored Sherlock, Sherrinford would have been the right age to have mentored Jim Moriarty.
If this is true, Sherrinford Holmes mentored Jim Moriarty well. According to Benedict Cumberbatch in a Collider interview, Sherlock Holmes lives in fear of his nemesis Jim Moriarty.
"Sherlock Season 4" will reveal what motive Sherrinford has in pitting Jim Moriarty against Holmes. Is the big "Sherlock Season 4" build up is about Sherrinford, Mycroft and Sherlock Holmes after all?
The BBC is expected to air "Sherlock Season 4" on New Year's Day 2017. How do you see the Sherrinford and Jim Moriarty connection in "Sherlock Season 4" Episode 3?
