Sherlock

just a quick one on Lancaster , the only other thing that springs to mind was Dr Buck Ruxton ,Dalton Square ,murdered his wife and maid in 1935, wrapped their body parts in a local newspaper and dumped them in Dumfries, this was the 1st forensic case to be solved this way, one thing they worked out the age of the maggots therefore giving a time of the disposal!! The building was empty for years until 1980s when it became offices, Nobody has slept there since 1935!!
Sherlock Holmes was the 1st forensic detective even though he was fictitious, even the "Hound of the Baskervilles" was based on Conan Doyles educational experiances at Stoneyhurst catholic private school,! Lancs/Yorks border???
Who was your favourite Holmes Actor?? mine was Basil Rathbone for years but as I "grew up" ( as Walter Horam would say "prove it" ?) it became a bit simplistic, recently there have been many interpretations, all surprisingly interesting and very differant!
