As my name makes apparent, I am a great fan of Robert DOwney Jr as am I his portrayal of Sherlock Holmes. I have heard the rumours of a sequel with none being confirmed as of yet, though it has been brought up so many times, I think it shall have one.

Did Sherlock Holmes ever have a girlfriend?

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.

Who played Irene adler in Sherlock Holmes?

Oh this is a saddd question!! Irene Adler was the only woman ever to escape Sherlock Holmes. Holmes held a much greater and deeper respect for women after that. And he always referred to her as "the woman". You'll hear a lot and I mean a LOT of rumors about some chemistry/romance between the two....but believe me, it is not not not NOTtrue!!! There was never anything between them. Sherlock Holmes was never interested in women and he laughed at romance.


Did Sherlock Holmes ever use a fingerprint to solve a mystery?

Yes and no. The fingerprint was a significant clue in the Adventure of the Norwood Builder (a story in The Return of Sherlock Holmes) but I'd spoil the story if I told you all, so please read it.I'll tell you this much. Inspector Lestrade found the bloodied print. He compared it to that of the suspect he had arrested. Lestrade thought he had his murderer. Holmes proved he did not.

Did Sherlock Holmes have friends?

His brother, Mycroft. Sherlock Holmes had one brother. His name was Mycroft Holmes. He was smarter than Sherlock, but did not like moving around the way Sherlock always did. Sherlock Holmes's grandmother was the sister of the French painter, Vernet. Towards the beginning of 'The Adventure of the Norwood Builder' we find this passage: At the time of which I speak, Holmes had been back for some months, and I, at his request, had sold my practice and returned to share the old quarters in Baker Street. A young doctor, named Verner, had purchased my small Kensington practice, and given with astonishingly little demur the highest price that I ventured to ask - an incident which only explained itself some years later, when I found that Verner was a distant relation of Holmes', and that it was my friend who had really found the money.
