- Summary
- Pathe synopsis: Dinner with a corpse? Not an attractive prospect, but it does not bother the diners at this London public house, which sports a fine collection of relics from the famous cases of Sherlock Holmes - the ‘corpse’ being a decoy bust of the great man himself. The miniature museum, partitioned off from the restaurant by plate glass, is a reconstruction of Holmes’ room at 221B Baker Street. All the familiar objects are in place: the Inverness cape, the deerstalker, the pipe and the violin - even Dr Watson’s stethoscope.
