Happy Christmas with a Sherlock Holmes Themed Carol to the tune of The Holly and the Ivy

John Watson and Sherlock Holmes
John Watson and Sherlock Holmes
Doctor and Detective
Catching criminals no-one else can
On Baker Street they live
He’s a consulting detective
Called upon by Scotland Yard
Always pointing out their incompetence
And upstaging Lestrade
Long-suffering John Watson
Is always there on hand
Documenting their adventures
In publications in the Strand
Housekeeper Mrs Hudson
Has the patience of a saint
Odd experiments, late-night violins
And a laundanum complaint.
Observation and Deduction
It’s elementary, my dear
When Sherlock Holmes is on the case
There’s no need for you to fear
John Watson and Sherlock Holmes
Doctor and Detective
Catching criminals no-one else can
On Baker Street they live
A Game of Shadows, or, A Meditation Upon Several Ways of Playing Chess
Ardy has done a magnificent write-up on the type of chess used in A Game of Shadows, as well as more information on other versions of speed chess. We talked about this a bit in Episode 15: A Game of Shadows, so listen, read, and rest assured that you now know more about chess and how badass it is.Mostly because Lyndsay asked, and because in my youth, I was slightly obsessed with chess. I am not very good at it—you can’t be if you learn it at an age in double digits, unless you have a truly exceptional mind—but it fascinates me.
SO.
Chess in AGOS. Are you ready?
Caitlin Moran - My Love Affair with Sherlock
Caitlin Moran’s amazing article on Sherlock for The Times. A look into the lives of the cast and crew, the fandom machine, and how Sherlock has changed all of our lives forever.
There aren’t any plot spoilers, but it does talk about a lot of filming, so if that bothers you, don’t read it.
Text of the Caitlin Moran article from tomorrow’s Times (it’s gone up rather early).
Do buy a copy of the Times as Benedict is on the front cover of the magazine and it’s an incredibly log article and it will probably have different photos inside!
An absolute must buy for any Sherlock fan!
