Sherlock? Benedict Jr? Mrs Hudson? Watson? Mycroft? Sir Arthur Conan Doyle? Or maybe just John?
Benedict Cumberbatch and his actress fiancee Sophie Hunter are having a baby.

It's definitely not news.

The tiny thing isn't even aware of itself, let alone its dad's mesmerising cheekbones or his masterful performance in Sherlock.
