Abstract
Since his appearance in the 19th century, Sherlock Holmes has been the subject of a number of adaptations to multiple formats, media, and platforms that update the character, icon and paradigm of the independent detective. His updating to the 21st century has caused an even greater expansion of the fictional universe created, at first, by Arthur Conan Doyle, and, later, by a multiplicity of authors who have either been governed by the canon or have opted for a freer interpretation of fandom. This article makes a brief tour of both traditions and then focuses on the analysis of the contributions that the last production of the British television channel BBC Sherlock (2010-2017) has made to the collective imagination in which the character and his universe are inscribed. Especially important for this analysis are the contributions that transmedia productions have made to carry out the series, as well as the changes they have brought about in the type of relationships that the detective establishes with his immediate, technological and human environment, and which give him a new dimension in tune with the new times.
