Blaze was taken out onto the moor by Straker.
No. Many have taken Silver's theme 'Dreams Of An Absolution' to be a dual Silver-Blaze theme, but Blaze doesn't have one of her own.
Holmes asked the stable boy about the sheep because he noticed the dog did not bark during the night, indicating that someone the dog knew approached the sheep. This led Holmes to conclude that the horse was taken by someone familiar with the stable and not a stranger.
Sherlock Holmes was always said to detest the thought of the public applauding his talents, therefore his photograph would cause him unwanted fame and publicity.
As of yet, Blaze the Cat has no theme song, although many fans have taken Silver's theme, 'Dreams of an Absolution,' to be a dual Silver/Blaze theme. Dreams of an Absolution is sung by Bentley Jones, also known as Lee Brotherton.
In "The Adventure of the Sussex Vampire," Sherlock Holmes solves the mystery of which way the suspect went by analyzing the evidence at the scene and deducing the direction based on footprints and other clues. Holmes often relies on his keen observation and logical reasoning to arrive at conclusions that others might overlook. Ultimately, his insights lead him to the correct path taken by the individual in question.
Hello. In the best effort I can, I would like to try and answer the question posed of why Sherlock Holmes didn't want his picture taken. In the dialogue exchanged after Lord Blackwood was taken away in cuffs, Sherlock and Watson discuss with the Inspector about how London will sigh a relief over Blackwood being captured. In a bout of selflessness, Holmes offers the Inspector a cigar and congratulates HIM (THE INSPECTOR) as being the sole individual who has accomplished solving the case. As not to take away from that, Holmes tries to cover up his face so that it will hopefully look like the Inspector was with someone who was not important enough (or perhaps was the criminal themselves who did not want their picture taken) to bother having a picture taken with. In otherwords, Holmes was hoping that by blocking his face, those reading the paper would take a quick glance, notice that there was indeed someone else there, but then turn away and devote their full attention to the man whose picture WAS taken --- the Inspector's (with a cigar in hand, mind you). But, as we all know, people are not stupid, and the fact that Watson was also captured in the background will ultimately lend itself to the "masked figure" present - Sherlock Holmes. Plus, it doesn't help when you have an eager report who cannot shut his mouth and blurts in bold letters on the front that Holmes was indeed the one who solved the case. So while Holmes' intention was to divert the reader's (s') attention(s) away from him in the picture and give the Inspector the full credit, the media, as always, seems to ruin things. I hope this has answered your question and that, even more so, you can understand what I mean by it. Best wishes, S.R.
Mycroft HolmesIn the books, he had an older brother called Mycroft Holmes who was said to be even smarter than Sherlock himself.There was also a film called "The Adventure of Sherlock Holmes's Smarter Brother" where Gene Wilder played younger brother "Sigerson Holmes", the name "Sigerson" taken from the alias Sherlock used abroad after the events of "The Final Problem" and before "The Empty House" while he was playing dead.He had one brother named Mycroft Holmes.Why, that would be ol' Mycroft, smarter than Sherlock but insufferably lazy, preferring to hang out at the Diogenes Club rather than run around solving problems like his younger brother. Doctor Watson meets him in The Greek Interpreter, never having heard about him before.Yes.Both Sherlock and Mycroft contend that Mycroft was the more intelligent and more properly socialized brother while Sherlock was the better detective and less socially acceptable.
He was engaged to Charles Augustus Milverton's housemaid. At the end of 'The Adventure of the Copper Beeches,' Watson writes "As to Miss Violet Hunter, my friend Holmes, rather to my disappointment, manifested no further interest in her when once she had ceased to be the centre of one of his problems." Holmes does not show any sign that he had a girlfriend before he met Watson. Most of the time he has a suspicious air towards women based on the fact that he states more then once that you can't trust them. Some of the film adaptations of Sherlock Holmes show that he does, like Young Sherlock Holmes (1985) and the latest Sherlock Holmes film staring Robert Downey Jr. (2009) In the 2009 film, a character called Irene Adler is added to the story to be the romantic interest for Holmes. This character was taken from one of Conan Doyle's short stories called A Scandal in Bohemia. In that story Holmes ventures in a disguise to Irene's home in search of an important photograph. The story is interesting and Irene's character is memorable because of the fact that she ends up being the only woman ever to outwit Holmes. As it turns out Holmes is impressed by the lady and keeps a photograph of her in memory of the case. Although a lot of people over the years exaggerate upon Irene Adler and Holmes, in the original story there is nothing to suspect a romantic relationship ever happening. In the story Irene marryies a man and leaves England. This character was never fully brought up again in any of the Sherlock Holmes stories. Save only by name.
There are so many. Some are Kill Bill, Psycho, Secret Window, Sherlock Holmes (2009), The Number 23, From Hell (maybe), The Sixth Sense, Devil (2010), 12 Monkeys, Unknown, Taken, The Adjustment Bureau, and Red Planet.
The five photographs were taken by Elsie Wright and Frances Griffiths, two young cousins who lived in Cottingley, near Bradford in England. In 1917, when the first two photographs were taken, Elsie was 16 years old and Frances was 10." Such was the standard of the photography from to such young and inexperienced girls that even Sir Arther Conan Doyle (who wrote Sherlock Holmes) was taken in.
We'll never know. In many of the Holmes stories, Watson makes reference to Holmes; remarks about crimes (solved and unsolved) that he never discussed with Watson, either for reasons of discretion, or because he felt the specifics of the case, while fantastic, would not demonstrate how logic, deduction and observation worked (a criterion of Holmes'; he disliked Watson's writings when they ventured away from the coldly scientific and stoic, and into the realm of "sensationalism".). Even considering the number of crimes mentioned in the books, the likely number would be far higher. ------ Sherlock Holmes solved more than 1000 small or big cases ------ In glancing over my notes of the seventy odd cases in which I have during the last eight years studied the methods of my friend Sherlock Holmes, -- John Watson, 'The Adventure of the Speckled Band' "This case of yours is very complex, Sir Henry. When taken in conjunction with your uncle's death I am not sure that of all the five hundred cases of capital importance which I have handled there is one which cuts so deep." -- Sherlock Holmes, "The Hound of the Baskervilles" Watson and Holmes reference about 100 unpublished cases in all of the 60 stories that are recounted for us.
Sherlock Holmes usually wore a collared shirt, a hat that looked some what like a top hat. Deerstalker hat, small top hat, or bowler hat, a hand woven tie, frock coat, trousers, Wellington dress shoes or boots, and, being the gentleman that he was, often seen with a cane or walking stick. The usual standard attire of the Victorian Londoner. Evening wear, top hats, dressing gowns, etc. etc. Sherlock Holmes is most famous for his Inverness (the cape-like coat he wore) and his deerstalker (the hat). The Deerstalker cap and Inverness cape are travelling clothes, and, as such, were only depicted by Sidney Paget when Holmes was travelling. They have since been given disproportional importance by later actors. Please see a limited selection of Sidney Paget drawings linked below.
