I wonder how many Sherlockians are aware of the popular theory among scholars that Arthur Conan Doyle’s knighthood was a personal bribe from the king of England to return to writing Sherlock Holmes stories after The Final Problem.

Happy Birthday Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, sorry that character you hate is what you're known for.

I yelled “John’s getting married!!!” and my flatmate yells “Spoilers!!” and I yelled, “It’s been spoiled for 100 years! Read a book!”

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SIR ARTHUR CONAN DOYLE!

Thanks for creating Sherlock Holmes and Dr. John Watson, and sorry we love them so much when you did not.

Have a good birthday!
