I understand that the TV series called "House, MD" where Dr. Gregory House's apartment number is 221. I read that the person who created this program from IMDb stated that he is a big fan of Sherlock Holmes, so his character, Dr. Gregory House would use the methods used by the fictional Holmes. The person he works with is Dr. Wilson "patterned" after Watson. In real life, Hugh Laurie (Dr. House) whose dad is an actual doctor.

My mother got a me a book of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's father's artwork and scribblings. Most of these are from the time when he was in an asylum. they are pretty far out there. One of my favorite drawings is a giant squirrel holding a baby.
