The sports anime usually take a long time for broadcast, just like Ep 383, the baseball game taking more than seconds to do an action for batting and pitching. So Wimbledon, the tennis game may also take more time to do an action. The 5-chapters episode need 2 hours to broadcast, even though there is anime original for the first 20 minutes.
In my opinion:
Original Aired Date as below:
Mar 5 Ep 608 White Day of Betrayal (Part 1)
Mar 12 Ep 609 White Day of Betrayal (Part 2)
Mar 19 Ep 610 The Victim is Kudou Shinichi
Mar 26 Ep 611 Inubushi Castle, the Ablazed Demon Dog (Will-O'-The-Wisp Chapter)
Apr 2 Ep 612 Inubushi Castle, the Ablazed Demon Dog (Chapter of Footprints)
Apr 9 Ep 613 Inubushi Castle, the Ablazed Demon Dog (Chapter of Princess)
So Apr 16 will be one week break for screening Movie 15 on the same date, then the next 4 weeks, Apr 23, 30, May 7 and 14 will be broadcasted Ep 460 Remastered, Ep 043 Remastered, Ep 614 and Ep 615 non-respectively.
I think London Case is really begin on May 21. If there is 7 episodes, then it'll end on July 2, TV director really planned to end on that date.
However because an earthquake, the original aired date had been changed, especially Ep 611 broadcast on Apr 16 which clashed on Movie 15 screening date since movies screening date usually taking a break or remastered last year movie.
