Reilly.</p><p>The convention will be held on the weekend of March 1 – 3 in Sioux City, Iowa, at the Dakota Dunes Roadside Motel and Convention Center.</p><p>Attendees can attend panel discussions, visit the Merchandise Room to purchase apparel, collectibles, and books, cosplay as their favorite characters, and read their favorite fan fiction at live readings. Organizers recently added the event "<i>Holmes & Watson</i> After Dark," a reading of erotic fan fiction.</p><p>Attendees will also be able to get autographs and attend panel discussions by notable cast members of the film.</p><p></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li>Mark Anthony Dawson, who played the uncredited role "Beefeater #1," will sign autographs and lead a Q&A session about his work on the film, including questions about the craft table and his brief interactions with Will Ferrell's personal assistant.</li><li>Attendees can also attend a viewing of a pre-recorded Zoom video Q&A with Wesley Kent-Hargreaves, who portrayed Weird Child Companion.</li><li>The uncle of Hector Bateman-Harden, who portrayed Young Sherlock Holmes, will be selling original headshots of his famous nephew in the Merchandise Room for $10 apiece or two for $18.</li></ul><p></p><p><br /></p><p>"This is a big deal for us," said Dakota Dunes assistant night manager Carl Alcorn. "We haven't had any celebrities of Mr. Dawson's magnitude here in several years. We once had Hacksaw Jim Duggan stop in for a night when his van broke down, but that was in 1995 after he retired."</p><p><br /></p><p>One of the most looked-forward-to panel discussions is entitled "Embracing the Silliness: How <i>Holmes & Watson</i> Changed My Outlook and Saved My Life," hosted by a mystery panelist known only as The Accordionist.</p></blockquote><p></p><p><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjcAGGy2G1yF5ZMNhB4AYiGBmfEL-NBD1UR1aqIZVxrjxSfQwg2281UDUk_yPQe_RPFc_OrnA8W4QxSyOgNRk_dCdOMAj-dybyVlN3MUfBUu3OjzEsA_Q3e4yh1tvSpchjRfkWjJCInHrgx2f1uJbM9LFsepbs6CYnBEZyhnjz1BtsXQ6evXxPOGq23xJ80" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img alt="" data-original-height="600" data-original-width="450" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjcAGGy2G1yF5ZMNhB4AYiGBmfEL-NBD1UR1aqIZVxrjxSfQwg2281UDUk_yPQe_RPFc_OrnA8W4QxSyOgNRk_dCdOMAj-dybyVlN3MUfBUu3OjzEsA_Q3e4yh1tvSpchjRfkWjJCInHrgx2f1uJbM9LFsepbs6CYnBEZyhnjz1BtsXQ6evXxPOGq23xJ80=w300-h400" width="300" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><i><span style="font-size: x-small;">The only known photo of The Accordionist</span></i></td></tr></tbody></table><br />"I loved this film the moment it came out," said The Accordionist from <a href="https://scottmonty.com/" target="_blank">his home studio in southeast Michigan</a></p><blockquote><p>. "Most of my friends think I hate it, but really, I have not loved a comedy film more. Ferrell and Reilly are the modern-day Laurel and Hardy, and they're not given enough credit for their amazing body of work. Holmes & Watson was the pinnacle of their comedy genius."</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://www.ihearofsherlock.com/2019/02/sherlock-holmes-brings-home-major-film.html" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><i>Holmes & Watson</i> won Golden Raspberries in 2019</a> for Worst Picture, Worst Director, Worst Supporting Actor, and Worst Prequel, Remake, Rip-off or Sequel.</p><p>Photos of the Golden Raspberries will be on display in the Autograph Area and Breakfast Nook, where fans can take selfies with the photos for $10.</p><p><br /></p><p>"It's an honor just to have been part of this amazing cast and crew," said Jacob McGrath, who will attend H&W Con and work as the Merchant Room's overnight security guard. "I was just minding my own business, drinking and sitting in an alley, when I was picked to be an extra for the courtroom scene. Their craft table was amazing. I hadn't seen that many Twinkies and Ding Dongs in one place. And now I get to honor the memory of that wonderful production by guarding over its collectibles. You guys are providing meals, too, right?"</p></blockquote><p></p><p><br /></p><p>While this is obviously a parody (in case you haven't figured it out yet), one wonders if such a convention might be possible...?</p><p><br /></p><div><br /></div>

(Note: there will be NO spoilers for future chapters and ask viewers to refrain from spoilers, too. Some first-time readers will be joining in.) </p><p>One difference between <i>The Hound</i> series and the previous Sherlock Mondays episodes is that the panel will be taking questions from the audience during every episode — at the halfway point and at the conclusion of the discussion. </p><p>The discussions begin on May 6 and extend through June 24 as follows:</p><p><b>May 6 with cohosts Mark Jones and Paul M.

Conan Doyle buys the English rights to the patented machinery, partners with a colourful sculptor-contractor named W.G. Jones who turns out to be both dishonest and difficult to deal with (not quite a grifter, but pretty close!). </p><p>The whole thing turns into a business nightmare, but not before the plan and Conan Doyle's business (both ultimately unsuccessful) get widespread attention in the news media on both sides of the Atlantic. By June 1905, the madcap adventure is over.</p><p>There are many nifty visuals, and many interesting words in both the news coverage and the private correspondence (including some pretty clearly direct connections to a couple of the Sherlock Holmes stories). And nowadays, there is a legend that the beautiful little island is cursed (though for reasons other than Conan Doyle's failed sculpture company) — if only Conan Doyle had known about the curse!</p><p><a href="https://portsmouth.spydus.co.uk/cgi-bin/spydus.exe/FULL/WPAC/EVSESENQ/14250109/15162201,1" target="_blank">Register for this talk</a>.</p><p><br /></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Michael Gunton – 28 June @ 7pm</h3><h4 style="text-align: left;"><i>Portsmouth's Conan Doyle Collection</i></h4><p>Portsmouth's Conan Doyle Collection is perhaps the most wide-ranging of its type in the world — including everything from letters written by Conan Doyle to Snoopy outfits and board games.

I investigated the modernist composers who scored the Hammer films for a BBC Radio 4 documentary. </p><p>This score inhabits those dark realms: influenced by Universal horror scores of the 1930s and the jagged harmonies of 1950s Hammer. I've even included a homage to Hammer maestro James Bernard."</p></blockquote><p><br /></p><p><b>Mark Gatiss</b> stars as Sherlock Holmes with <b>Sanjeev Bhaskar</b> as Dr. Watson.
