I have been thinking of starting a companion thread which lists the phrases already used and to which people can add as they contribute in future. Is that OK?
I now have a copy of this ready to post but I'm not sure where it should go (if wanted!).

Great idea, JaneCo. I think you should PM our boss or one of our magnificent moderators to talk about that (Kazza or Davina)
And... may I have the R, please?

Re: Sherlock Quotes Hangman
Are we playing without vowels? If I can ask for one, I'd like the E.
If not... please, the B

I was wondering if you'd like to have coffee...
Hmm. I really don't know. Oh, I'm sorry, did I say 'know'? I meant 'care'. I don't really care.

Re: Sherlock Quotes Hangman
Good idea to play without the vowels. I thought someone would get it quite quickly

Re: Sherlock Quotes Hangman
As a suggestion (let's see what you all think); when I play this game in other forums, usually we play with vowels, but we have to get at least three consonants correct to ask for a vowel. It makes it a little more hard to get but yet you still can ask for a vowel from time to time. What do you think?
Apart from that, please, a D

Can I do one?!

New Rule :One vowel may be chosen only after 3 consonants have been chosen.
Second vowel may be chosen after the 6th consonant has been chosen, etc etc.

Great idea Irene!

One vowel may be chosen only after 3 consonants have been chosen.
Second vowel may be chosen after the 6th consonant has been chosen, etc etc.
(Please copy & paste into your clue post. I have done your first one Molly)

Also, please note that sentences can also end in full stops. The exclamation mark can be overused.

Mycroft’s popularity doesn’t surprise me at all. He is, after all, incredibly beautiful, clever and well-dressed. And beautiful. Did I mention that?

Re: Sherlock Quotes Hangman
I'm happy you liked the idea. I think it spices up the things a little 
And now, please, an R if you got one, Ms Hooper

1 R, 2 more correct and you can have a vowel!
New Rule :One vowel may be chosen only after 3 consonants have been chosen.
R,
Second vowel may be chosen after the 6th consonant has been chosen, etc etc.
