Deductive powers restored

Robert Downey Jr will swap his Iron Man armour for a pipe and magnifying glass when he returns as Sherlock Holmes in two years’ time.

Warner Bros has confirmed the 53-yearold, pictured right, and Jude Law’s Doctor Watson will be back for a third case, although it has yet to be revealed whether Guy Ritchie will once again direct.

Also making a comeback for a third flick are time-travelling slackers Bill and Ted as it was announced stars Keanu Reeves and Alex Winter will reprise their roles for Bill & Ted Face the Music.
