‘Hot Detectives In Your Area’ hilariously drags Holmes and Watson into the 21st century

Oonagh Keating. Updated July 1st, 2022

Every day is a good day to check out what the very funny Alasdair Beckett-King is doing, and it’s a particularly good day when he shares a new sketch.

His latest piece captures the essence of the great detective himself, Sherlock Holmes, and his eager sidekick, Doctor John Watson. It’s not exactly a three-pipe problem.

Patience, Doctor Watson.

Pah, patience! A female is in distress, Holmes. She’s in our area.

YouTube user John73 John mused –

I guess she must’ve heard of Holmes’s reputation after he helped that Nigerian prince with his fortune.

Alasdair shared the post on Twitter, where it has been racking up the views and getting a lot of love.

This is genius, and accidently better than all the yearly compliance training that companies make me take. https://t.co/O8kRqpzF1A
