...my healthy holmes obsession...
10K posts
Majorly obsessed with the Granada Sherlock Holmes series and all things Jeremy Brett. I also blog some Raffles and other related queer Victorian stuff. Icon by granada-brett-crumbs. FYI I ship Holmes & Watson and use the tag #holmes/watson. Because I didn't know any better when I joined the fandom, I sometimes use #johnlock.

__ the 2025 Anthony Valentine Convention! ✨
Friends, we are at the beginning of a new year, and you all know what that means - it is time to stream Tony non-stop til we drop! Bring your snacks and a good attitude and get ready for an assortment of Tony TV. As usual, the convention will run for at least 12 hours so do not worry if you can't be there at the start - drop in whenever and for however long you like!
There is no set schedule for what we will be watching, but per tradition we will get one or two episodes of Raffles, Callan, Justice and Colditz into the mix, along with other various gems from Tony's television career. As usual, I will try to post updates on tumblr of what we're about to watch next, so keep an eye on my blog if there is something you're particularly keen on joining for.
This year's AVC will be held at hyperbeam.com, since our dear Caracal has left us. We have briefly checked the site out and it all seems to be working fine, but just be aware that it's going to be a bit of a test run! Creating an account is not necessary, however - upon entrance you will only be asked to enter a username.
Welcome to the 2025 AVC!
Start: Sunday, 12 January at 14:00 GMT (check your time zone)
Duration: At least 12 hours, probably more
Where: Hyperbeam - no account necessary
Who can join: Anyone who wants to! There is no pressure to talk in the chat if you don't feel like it, but please just say hi upon entrance so we know it's not a bot :)
See you there! ✨

Jeremy Brett as Orlando in Shakespeare’s “As You Like It” (1967).

~ Happy Birthday Ernest William Hornung ~
⭐ 7 June 1866
Author, poet, and life long cricket enthusiast – and creator of gentleman thieves A. J. Raffles and Bunny Manders.
“I saw that he was emptying his pockets; the table sparkled with their hoard. Rings by the dozen, diamonds by the score; bracelets, pendants, aigrettes, necklaces; pearls, rubies, amethysts, sapphires; and diamonds always, diamonds in everything, flashing bayonets of light, dazzling me—blinding me—making me disbelieve because I could no longer forget.”
Thank you for the words, Willie old boy.

On the Sunday afternoon I was asleep in my berth, the lower one, when the curtains were shaken by Raffles, who was in his shirt-sleeves on the settee. "Achilles sulking in his bunk!" "What else is there to do?" I asked him as I stretched and yawned. I noted, however, the good-humor of his tone, and did my best to catch it. -The Gift of the Emperor

When Holmes and Watson go to a concert, this is what's happening in Watson's mind the whole time.
