Is That My Watson?

by Andrew Murray

Who's your favourite Dr Watson? Martin Freeman or Jude Law? Lucy Liu or Edward Hardwicke? It's so hard to choose, so spare a thought for poor Sherlock Holmes – faced with so many Watsons old and new, what will he do? Who’s too techno-garish? Who’s too teddy-bearish? Who’s maybe too pretty? Who’s in the wrong city? Who’s the right Watson in Holmes’s own view? And is Sherlock’s Watson the Watson for you?

Reviews

[Amanda · Rating 4 out of 5]

If you write a story where Watson is looking for his Holmes, you need to write a story about Holmes looking for his Watson. This has the same story plotting as the one where Watson is looking for Holmes, but this one has where the canon Holmes is looking for Watson through all the actors that have played him or her, over the years. The only main problem is, the writer didn't add David Burke from the Granada series, Edward Hardwicke was included though.

This one is just as fun as the Holmes story and the illustrations are just as cute in this addition.
