    • Quotes

      [first lines over opening credits]

      [Shirley reads a message she found hidden in a family heirloom]

      Voice of Sherlock Holmes: To the holder of this letter, my commendations. Solving the puzzle of the chest required more than considerable deductive powers. My work has consumed my life and I have produced no heir to follow in my path, but I picture you a young man of good imagination. Any mystery devised by mortal minds can be solved therewith. Yours faithfully, Sherlock Holmes.

    I Love this show!
    I haven't watched it in ages because they don't show it in England anymore but I've got the summary book with all the info on it! I only remembered to look for it on here after listening to Backstreet Boys Anywhere For You and As Long As You Love Me because they reminded me of it (don't ask me why!) I think it was because Shirely and Bo were great characters and felt real and all the mysteries were great fun. I've always wanted Shirely and Bo to get together even though there was never any real confirmation until right at the end of 'The Case Of The Queen Of Heart' where Bo opens the door for Shirely that there was any hint of them wanting to be more than friends. also a shame there was no real ending to it too. hope they bring it out on DVD soon! I'd certainly buy it!
