"Stop at a telegraph-office, cabby!" [SIGN]
Cabbies are everywhere in London – indeed, so common in some cases that they're simply overlooked (we see you, Jefferson Hope!). Could Sherlock Holmes have passed himself off as a cabby?
There are certainly points in his career when it would have made sense. And a paper given at a Sherlock Holmes society in Denmark points in that direction. Hop on board with us in this monthly travel series episode! It's just a Trifle.
You can make suggestions as well — if we choose a topic you recommend, we'll send you a Sherlockian prize.
