Author's Notes: “If you have a fancy to see your name in the next honours list—"


Holmes was idly scanning the New Year Honours list when—

“Great heavens!”

He shook his head with a smile.

“Mycroft must have insisted upon it. Well, I understand why he thought the recognition was deserved.”

Watson frowned. “You’ve been given a knighthood?”

“Oh, no...”

Holmes stood as Mrs. Hudson entered with the tea, and he bowed.

“Thank you. Dame Sybilla.”



A/N: According to Wikipedia the title of dame as the official equivalent of knight [wasn’t] introduced [until] 1917. But Mrs. Hudson would have been a special case of course ^^

Very much deserved indeed!

It certainly is ^___^

Well deserved, Mrs. H! Congrats!

[scfrankles.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much.

I thought at first that it was too great an award for a humble landlady. Then I looked again at the state of Mr. Holmes's sitting-room and I wasn't so sure...

Yay!
Ahead of her time, Mrs H, ahead of her time.

Mrs. Hudson is always a special case. :-)

"Guess which denizen of Baker Street is knighted and receive a discount on your next detective consultation!"
