Want to know more about Holmes? Try the Links. I only give a thoroughly selected list, but the recommended sites are very extensive.
The section about film and radio shows is primarily about my own favourites but contains also a short reference list of links to the best film and theatre sites about Sherlock Holmes.
Under Articles you will find a curious mix of papers, thoughts, eccentric writings etc from my humble pen.
Ready for a little game? In the Just for Fun section, you will find my personal Sherlockian Top 10 list, Sherlockian quizzes and games. The latter are java applets, so if your computer doesn't support that, you shouldn't try. Otherwise - play ahead!
