Wow, nakahara, that was quick - congrats!
Would you like to present us with a new challenge?
 

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
John: "Have you spoken to Mycroft, Molly, uh, anyone?"
Mrs Hudson: "They don’t matter. You do."

I BELIEVE IN SERIES 5!

I prepared something, but I apologise in advance - it would be a very clumsy anagram:

AN
 
GREET
 
ERMINE
 
LIMPED
 
FIGHT

A hint: It´s a placename we heard in the show - and it was essential to the story.

-----------------------------------

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?

Hint No. 2: The place was picturesque in the show, but very dangerous.

What a nice anagram, nakahara.
I saw it at the office this morning, and as I had extremely boring work to do I decided to solve it (which took me at least a couple of seconds).
I don't want it to be my turn again so quickly, so - is there maybe another puzzle solver to take part in this?

They are great, Harriet! 

And yet you are quite close to the real answer with the second one.

I suppose there is no master list? New to the game 
I couldn't find this version yet, though:

GAY CROSS PINT

The Great Grimpen Minefield was the right answer of course. 

Any hint for your new anagram that would help us decipher it?

Yes, it's a quote by one of the major characters

This game is indeed much more fun than I expected! 

Did you know in some places of the world CR is short for loo?

It is. 

The quothe above is from the very drunk John, who couldn´t quite pronounce the whole sentence in his poor condition.

As soon as I saw "gay" in it, I knew it was John speaking.

I guess we were born for this game! 

Do you need more hints? Shall we wait for tobe to show up?

Hmm, tobe would have it in a few seconds, I´m afraid.

More hints, please?
