A Touch of the Dramatic

A Holmes-obsessed sideblog. All the adaptions, all the pastiche, all the fanfiction. Gimme it all.

I was reading a book about Homosexuality in the 19th century when:

And, do you know what Holmes leaves behind for Watson at the Reichenbachfall?

Coincidence?

I sincerely doubt it....

Late night doodle

[ID: digital sketch of Holmes and Watson as little mice creatures in the snow. Holmes, his mousey arm around Watson, has grey fur and is wearing top hat, scarf and coat. Watson, brown in color is wearing a bowler hat and a brown coat. They're both holding tiny walking sticks. /end ID]

“Holmes chuckled, and wriggled in his chair, as was his habit when in high spirits.”

I love this man 😭

Small but important reminder that Holmes and Watson grew old. They reached retirement age. Watson wasn't killed in battle and Holmes didn't die at the Reichenbach, but they both survived. They survived the hundreds of mad criminals they went up against too. It's canonical that they became old men, even though that was a difficult feat: both because of their livelihoods and the era which they lived in. Holmes retired to the countryside. There's nothing to say that Watson didn't eventually also do the same.

They didn't die tragically- they lived full lives, and there's something very hopeful about that.

'Sherlock's Secretary' TV Series For USA Network In Development

Procedural 'Sherlock's Secretary' is in development for USA Network. The project hails from 'Psych's Andy Berman.

The series follows a quirky London woman whose job is responding to the thousands of letters addressed to the world’s greatest detective. After years of answering them, she unknowingly becomes the closest living thing to Sherlock Holmes — and begins investigating real mysteries arriving at 221B Baker Street.

I present my first attempt at drawing Jeremy Brett and Edward Hardwicke as young Holmes and Watson!!The semi-realism possessed me for this one LMAOO!! Had so much fun drawing Jeremy Brett, just getting to be able to stare at a very very handsome man.

Happy birthday to John Watson underrated king

Whenever someone who isn’t a sherlock Holmes fan talks about him they always underestimate Watson he’s not the dumb sidekick he’s a doctor and icon.

RIP Watson you would’ve loved Google docs and gay marriage

Sudden burst of creativity

Wild to think this is the first artwork I complete and post of Holmes playing the violin. I wonder what he's playing 🫴

[ID: Digital artwork of Sherlock Holmes playing the violin. He's using a cloth in lieu of shoulder rest (which hasn't been invented yet), a little bee embroidered on its edge. His eyes are closed. /end ID]

Sherlock Holmes - May The Best Theme Song Win!

A while ago I made this playlist of every Sherlock Holmes theme song I could find. Now that I've compiled them all in one place, let's do a vote just for shits n giggles and decide which one is the best. To be clear, you're voting here purely on which THEME MUSIC you like the best, not which adaptation you like the best.

There are a LOT of them so I'm splitting it up into 3 rounds for different categories: movies, TV, and video games.

Which Sherlock Holmes adaptation has the best theme music? (Round 1: MOVIES)

Guy Ritchie Holmes

The Private Life of Sherlock Holmes

The Great Mouse Detective

Rathbone Holmes

Mr. Holmes

Sherlock Holmes 1916

Young Sherlock Holmes

Voting ended onAug 5

PLEASE REBLOG TO HELP THE SAMPLE SIZE!

[the-bedheaded-league]

Last day to vote!! Idk if the link above to my playlist with all the themes is working so if not, try this one instead.

REMINDER: this vote is for your favorite THEME MUSIC, not the entire soundtrack.

Cold marble can never convey your warmth

And small piece from my WIP fic

"The abyss of the Reichenbach Falls haunted me in my dreams almost every night, and I was utterly helpless. I could do nothing, standing at its edge, clutching the silver cigarette case. I would never lose Holmes again. Even if it meant he had to lose me."
