Apprieciated . . .

There was never meant to be 'A Return of Sherlock Holmes' Doyle was bored to death of the stories and tried to kill him off! Luckily there was such an uproar that he was forced to write more! *everyone cheers loudly!*

Had I been around at the time, I would have personally kidnapped Doyle and forced him to create the new stories!

As you can tell I'm a bit of a Sherlockian.

I would just like to point out that upon Sherlock's return, Watson abruptly faints! Was I the only one nutty enough to see the absolute humor behind this? Probably!

I just put this thread here because noone else had commented on the Return and I thought it deserved to be apprieciated!

Red face Help

There are many issues about Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson that I would like to discuss and you look to me as an expert. Can you help me? I am not English native speaker, so please forgive any mistake. Thanks.
