"Sherlock" Quotations Hangman Game

[Let's_have_dinner]

We also don't call full stops periods. Lol :-)

[sherlockandjohn]

So that was the punctuation issue. And I fell right into the "trap"! Typical

 

_ _ / _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ / _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ _ _ , / _ _ / _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ .

[Let's_have_dinner]

Hmm. I'm not getting this one with no letters either. *thinks hard*

 

T?

[sherlockandjohn]

_ _ / _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ / t _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ / _ _ / _ _ _ t _ _ _ , / _ _ / _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ / t _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ .

[Let's_have_dinner]

Still can't get it without anymore letters...

[Let's_have_dinner]

Hmm... E?

[sherlockandjohn]

_ e / _ _ _ _ _ / _ e / t _ e / _ _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ / _ _ / _ _ _ t _ e _ , / _ _ / _ _ _ e / _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ e / t _ _ _ / e _ e _ .

"He could be the making of my brother, or make him worse than ever."

 

You like your Mycroft quotes :-)

[sherlockandjohn]

Here's another one: "Dear Lord". How did you solve that so quickly? He does have some great lines, now I come to think of it.

Anyway, your go.

[Let's_have_dinner]

I worked out the first bit was (possibly) "he could be the" and I guessed the last word was "ever". So then I got it :-)

 

"_ _ / _ _ _ _ / _ / _ _ _ _ ?"

 

"_ _ _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ _."

[sherlockandjohn]

Good job

A?

[Let's_have_dinner]

 

"_ _ / _ _ a _ / a / _ _ a _ ?"

 

"_ _ _ _ / _ _ a / _ _ _ / _ _ / _ _ a _ _ _."

[sherlockandjohn]

h?

[Let's_have_dinner]

 

"_ _ / _ h a _ / a / h _ a _ ?"

 

"_ _ _ _ / _ _ a / _ _ _ / _ _ / _ h a _ _ _."

[sherlockandjohn]

"Is that a head?"

"Just tea for me thanks."

[Carol the Dabbler]

Excuse me, but isn't that:

 

JOHN: A severed head!
SHERLOCK: Just tea for me, thanks.

 

 

[sherlockandjohn]

I always heard it as 'Is that a head'... will have to check my DVD... *goes to check*.

You are right, Carol: "A severed head!" "Just tea for me, thanks" "No, there's a head in the fridge"...

 

That gave me the opportunity to check what Sherlock says after "Where else was I supposed to put it" - I never could make that out. "You don't mind, do you?" Kind of sweet, really, the way he asks.

[Let's_have_dinner]

How funny, I always heard it as "is that a head?"! Maybe because he's got his head in the fridge!

[Let's_have_dinner]

I just checked because I had to hear it for myself, and the first three times I heard "is that a head?" I was determined to hear it as "a severed head" (which makes Sherlock's reply make more sense) and the 4th time that's what I heard. You wouldn't have thought they sounded so similar, but they obviously do! So thanks for clarifying that bit for me Carol! :-)

[sherlockandjohn]

Well, obviously I lost that round. Although technically I did solve it Sorry; love quoting Sherlock.

 

Let's try this one:

 

_ _ _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ _ _ . / _ _ _ _ / _ _ / _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ ?

[Let's_have_dinner]

Ha! Yes, sorry that was a bit confusing. It's like an optical illusion where you can see a young girl or an old woman depending on how you look at it; I keep listening to it, and sometimes I hear "is that a head?" and sometimes I hear "a severed head"!

 

Going to look at this one for a bit and see if I can finally solve one without any letters! 

[sherlockandjohn]

I know; I had to listen several times before I could get myself to hear it as 'severed head', having not even considered that before.

 

You go ahead and think Hope you solve it! If at some point you'd like it, I could PM a hint.

[Let's_have_dinner]

Is it "That was this morning. When is the next one?" 

[sherlockandjohn]

You did it! Congrats

[Let's_have_dinner]

Yay!!! Thanks :-D

 

Let's see if you can do the same ;-)
