THE GREATEST DETECTIVE

A

If you walk down Baker Street in London, you might come across a house with this blue sign on the wall: ‘221b, Sherlock Holmes, Consulting Detective, 1881– 1904’. And you will probably also find people from all over the world who have come to visit.

B

The building is now the Sherlock Holmes Museum and shows the rooms where Holmes lived and worked. His chair is by the fire, his famous hat and pipe are on the table, and the violin that he loved to play is leaning against the wall. The place looks exactly as it did more than a hundred years ago.

C

Many of the visitors who come to the museum believe that Sherlock Holmes was a real person. In fact, he was just a character invented by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, who wrote a huge number of books about the great detective. In all, there were 56 short stories and four novels about him, written between 1887 and 1927.

D

Conan Doyle gives us lots of details about Holmes. He is serious and highly intelligent, but not very sociable – and can sometimes appear rude and unfriendly. Holmes is single and has no interest in romance. ‘Love is an emotional thing,’ he tells Watson, and the only thing he is interested in is ‘cold reason’.

E

However, there was a real person who gave Conan Doyle the original idea of Sherlock Holmes. This was Dr Joseph Bell, who was one of the professors at the medical school that Conan Doyle went to. He used to amaze his students by his ability, for example, to tell what someone’s job was just by noticing very small pieces of evidence. Dr Bell also helped the police with some of their investigations by analysing evidence scientifically.

F

Conan Doyle once tried to kill off Sherlock Holmes in The Final Problem in 1893. His readers were shocked and sent in angry letters. In the end, Conan Doyle brought Holmes back and explained that his death had just been a piece of ‘fake news’ to protect him from his enemies. And since then, Holmes has kept coming back in Hollywood movies, documentaries and dramas. He now has the world record for appearing in films and TV.
