In the Japanese dub, Watson has a deeper voice than
ShyarockSherlock… I do not know what this means but I am so unsure.Uploaded for those with a morbid curiosity.
Edit, as it keeps being asked: Sherlock is voiced by Mikami Satoshi (三上哲), whilst Watson is voiced by Toshiyuki Morikawa (森川智之)

The Best Sherlock Holmes was…Russian?
Trailer for the critically acclaimed Russian Sherlock Holmes films directed by Igor Maslennikov between 1979 and 1986. The films, which have become cult favorites, starred Vasily Livanov as Sherlock Holmes and Vitaly Solomin as Doctor Watson. Livanov and Solomin are considered by many critics to be the most authentic Holmes and Watson.
On April 23, 2002, Vitaly Solomin suffered a stroke during a performance of a play he had directed called “The Wedding of Krechinsky,” at Moscow’s Malyi Theatre. He died a month later.
On February 20, 2006, Queen Elizabeth II awarded Vasily Livanov an honorary commandership in the Order of the British Empire (OBE) “for service to the theatre and performing arts” for his portrayal of Holmes.
These are brilliant, people. Find them on the YouTubes.

Because someone asked the BSB tumblr…here is our slightly wonky recording of the Q&A after the screening of the Private Life of Sherlock Holmes with Mark Gatiss and special guest Steven Moffat in May 2011. Crazy, on that night they finished shooting Hounds.

Whose fandom owns the title for the “mother of all fanfiction honeypots” and paved the way for (cough) Fifty Shades of Grey? Our Sherlock Holmes fandom, of course! In this video, the PBS Idea Channel discusses Sherlock Holmes fanfic, the wider fanfiction community, artistic movements and trends, and authors like Sir Arthur Conan Doyle who create loose continuities that appeal to fan writers.
AW YEAH.
Happy Fandom Summer from the Baker Street Babes! Stay tuned for more!
