The BBC’s Christmas special of Sherlockis to contain a secret reference viewers will have to speak Chinese to understand, the show’s writer has hinted, in a nod to the show’s huge Asian fanbase.
英劇《神探夏洛克》的編劇暗示稱，BBC出品的《神探夏洛克》圣誕特輯引用了一個(gè)秘密典故，只有說(shuō)漢語(yǔ)的人才能懂。此舉旨在向廣大亞洲影迷致敬。

Steven Moffat disclosed the special episode of Sherlock, starring Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman, will be full of secret clues for die-hard fans of the original Sir Arthur Conan Doyle novels, as well as something extra for its Chinese audience.
史蒂文·莫法特透露道，《神探夏洛克》的圣誕特輯主角依然是本尼迪克特·康伯巴奇和馬丁·弗瑞曼，這集對(duì)柯南·道爾原版小說(shuō)的死忠粉來(lái)說(shuō)充滿了無(wú)限的隱秘線索，此外還給中國(guó)觀眾帶來(lái)了小驚喜。

The programme is already a key part of BBC Worldwide’s sales and is watched by 98 million fans in China, who have special names for its stars: “Peanut” for Watson and “Curly Fu” for Holmes.
《神探夏洛克》在BBC全球的銷量中占據(jù)重要地位，觀看該劇的中國(guó)粉絲達(dá)9800萬(wàn)，這些中國(guó)影迷還給兩位主演起了昵稱：華生又叫“花生”，福爾摩斯又叫“卷福”。

The seasonal episode, a one-off entitled The Abominable Bride, will seek to extend that close relationship, as it goes back to the Victorian era with a Sherlock Holmes ghost story.
這集季播劇定名為《可惡的新娘》，故事背景回溯至維多利亞時(shí)期，圍繞夏洛克的一個(gè)鬼故事展開(kāi)，繼續(xù)描繪“卷福”與“花生”的緊密關(guān)系。

Moffat told the Radio Times: “It’s a new story, but if you know the original stories, you’ll see that it’s fashioned out of quite a few others.
莫法特對(duì)廣播時(shí)代（Radio Times）說(shuō)道：“這是個(gè)全新的故事。如果你讀過(guò)柯南·道爾的原作，就能發(fā)現(xiàn)這集雜糅了很多故事。”

“As ever with us, we’ve chosen several and there are loads of references. One of them you have to be able to speak Chinese to get.”
“我們跟原來(lái)一樣，選了好幾個(gè)故事，也參考了很多。其中一個(gè)典故只有會(huì)說(shuō)漢語(yǔ)的人才能懂。”
