Re: Sherlock Anagrams
Can you also reveal the name of the episode in which this quote appears?
-----------------------------------
I cannot live without brainwork. What else is there to live for? Stand at the window there. Was there ever such a dreary, dismal, unprofitable world? See how the yellow fog swirls down the street and drifts across the dun-coloured houses. What could be more hopelessly prosaic and material? What is the use of having powers, Doctor, when one has no field upon which to exert them?

Re: Sherlock Anagrams
[b]Would you, please, solve me? I'm not that difficult...
PHEW - WE GET TRUE ORG[/b]
What do we know so far?
Sherlock quote - series 1.
Four words.
First one is "WE"
Last one has eight letters, ending with "R"
From TGG.
Oh ...Sherlock says it to a woman.
And it looks like this:
WE _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ R.

Re: Sherlock Anagrams
Ver good, Yitzock! Two words are correct. - in each of the three attempts. You just seem to have lost a letter...

Re: Sherlock Anagrams
That would explain why something was off...not sure how I missed a letter. I thought I had at one point, but then I thought I fixed it. I guess not.

Actually, I would rather let you have the next round because I only found the solution after seeing your post. If you didn´t lost the letter on the way, you would have made it immediately for sure.
So please, Yitzock, give us the new one.

How kind. I will try and get one up in the next day or so, since I can't do it right now.

Here's a line from a rather nonsensical song:
O! DIGNIFIED TOY MUTT! HA!
None of the exclamation points are in the answer.
