Steven Moffat Wants To Make A Doctor Who and Sherlock Crossover For The Fans

Doctor Who and Sherlock are two of the greatest shows produced by the BBC right now, and both are overseen by Steven Moffat and his partner Mark Gatiss. Fans have been dreaming for a crossover episode. Someone even made a fan-made short called Wholock, and a lot of fans loved it. Now, we might actually get an official crossover. In an interview with EW, Moffat reveals that he wants to give what the fans want.

My instinct—and this is probably from years of doing Doctor Who—is I'm just such a tart. If people want to, we should give it to them. But I got persuaded by Mark, Benedict, [executive producer Sue Vertue] and Martin saying, "Look, it will never be as good as they think it's going to be," and then I say, "Yes, but we'll just bang it out and make it as good." "Yeah, but you can't give everybody everything they want all the time." I'm in the camp of giving them everything they want. But I think they're sane and right and I'm just a tart.

I know now a lot of fans support this idea because they think it's "gimmicky", but a crossover episode would be incredibly entertaining.
