Hi folks,
Stamford here again with something a little different.
As some of you know, The Mind Palace is hosting a quiz night next week and I thought I’d help you warm up for it with some practice questions (answers are on the bottom of the page).
- How many steps lead up to the flat in 221b Baker Street?
- What was Speedy’s Café originally going to be called?
- How much does Sherlock’s iconic coat cost?
- What did Sir Arthur Conan Doyle originally want to name Sherlock?
- Which monarch was known for being a big Sherlock fan?
Let me know how you did in this mini warm up quiz here.
That’s all from me for now! See you at the quiz night for an evening of trivia and an exclusive quiz night cocktail.
If you couldn’t get tickets for the quiz this time, make sure you subscribe to our newsletter here to be notified when the next one will be.
The quiz will be set in The Library, inside The Mind Palace (not Sherlock’s metaphorical one, it’s a physical bar in Shepherd’s Bush). Rumor has it some of my more enthusiastic blog followers will be arriving in Sherlock-themed fancy dress!
If you’re coming, remember that the doors open at 7pm and the quiz will begin at 8pm on the 19th October 2022.
Unfortunately, I won’t be there, but I hear there’ll be a special cocktail for the occasion. So make sure you grab one and share any pictures of yourselves at the quiz to the 221b Instagram or Facebook page.
Answers:
- 17 steps
- Mrs Hudson’s Snax n’ Sarnies
- £1350 (the coat is now discontinued)
- Sherrinford
- Queen Victoria
