Re: Sherlock alphabet game
I have a few ideas but wanted to wait in case there are other suggestions already 
Btw, would anybody fancy creating a list of the topics we had here?

Re: Sherlock alphabet game
I would like to suggest a topic. I had an idea yesterday (or rather, today - yes, it was late) because of the hangman thread. There is this scene in SIB where Sherlock says "what a tender world that would be" if Mrs Hudson's whimpering could impede the flight of a bullet. So, if that is one of the rules of the fantasy world Sherlock would like to live in, what other rules would it have?
I would start with:
Anderson never talks.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
He’s got a dog. We go to the pub on weekends. I’ve met his mum and dad …
… and his friends and all his family and I’ve no idea why I’m telling you this.

John: "Have you spoken to Mycroft, Molly, uh, anyone?"

Lestrade always has interesting cases and only does the paperwork while Sherlock solves the crimes and chases the killers (and John blogs about it).
