LONDON - Ready or not, Benedict Cumberbatch is back filming the new season of Sherlock, and fans have captured some of the action. 

Cumberbatch was filming scenes of the new series, which apparently will show the 39-year-old actor running across Vauxhall Bridge in London.

Caught in action filming the BBC hit show, he was spotted wearing a dark coat and leather gloves outside of the MI5 building.  

Co-creators Mark Gatiss and Steven Moffat announced earlier this month that the show will be returning but have not released an official return date. However, according to the Evening Standard, the "latest instalment will be based on Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's 1892 Sherlock story The Adventure of Silver Blaze."


Sherlock has not returned to TV screens since the New Year's special.
