Summary
The rumbling grew as the car approached, overwhelming the bees' hum until it sounded more like an oncoming Fokker, and then abruptly cut off. Watson's voice then was audible across the garden, but he wasn’t calling to me. He was speaking to the other occupants of the car: his daughter Margaret, and her fiancé whom we were finally to meet.

Summary
“To be altogether honest with you, I’m not exactly sure I could have pulled off the scheme on my own. Deuced difficult to make the leap from roly-poly puddings to aniseed trousers without so much as a tin of sardines.”
Double drabbles inspired by each episode of the mostly lost 1965 BBC TV series, with a tiny bit of help (i.e. some heavy Wodehousian lifting) from the original stories they adapt and a little play on how they differ from them.

The Adventure of the Doctor and the Duellist by ghostbees (Vernets), mistyzeo
Fandoms: Sherlock Holmes - Arthur Conan Doyle
01 May 2016
Tags
Summary
One unusual case that was unsuitable for publication took place in early September, 1895, some eighteen months after Holmes had returned from what I privately called his Unexpected World Tour: that of Isadora Persano, the well-known journalist and duellist, who was found stark staring mad with a match box in front of him which contained a remarkable worm said to be unknown to science. I took notes during the course of events and will now attempt to realign it into a narrative, but I am certain that this particular puzzle will have to go into the box at Cox & Co. and may not be retrieved until very long hence. The story is simultaneously unsatisfactory and unsuitable, though it demonstrates the quickness of Holmes's deductive talents, but as it resulted in a critical shift in the tone of Holmes's and my partnership I am nonetheless compelled to write it down.
