“You did not write this?” I said, pulling the letter from my pocket. “There is no sick Englishwoman in the hotel?”
“Certainly not,” he cried. “But it has the hotel mark upon it! Ha, it must have been written by that tall Englishman who came in after you had gone.

So I was rewatching “Hounds of Baskerville” a few days ago, and this interesting little detail caught my eye! Undershaw, of course, is Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s historic home, which is currently being threatened by developers. Major props to Mark Gatiss, who wrote this episode, for putting this in - he’s been the patron of the Undershaw Preservation Trust since December 2010, and has thus been wonderfully supportive of the movement.

My cousin and I went out driving and we found a Sherlock neighborhood.

I have a feeling a lot of fangirls are going to be looking for houses here.
