'Damn my leg!'

'Language, Doctor!'

'I'm sorry, Mrs Hudson.'

'Give him a minute and then try again.'

'Very well Mr Holmes. Ready, Dr Watson?'

'I don't know how you can expect me to waltz when I cannot even walk without a limp.'

'Listen to the music. Use it to incorporate your movement.'

'What, limp to the music?'

'Yes, use the tempo to mask your gait. Try again.'

'You're mad, Holmes.'

The band was playing Strauss and the newlyweds moved in perfect harmony with the music and with each other.

'Where did you learn to dance, John?'

Watson smiled in recollection.

.oOOo.

Please sign the guestbook




Supplementary Notes:
In the second Ritchie film, Holmes asks Watson who taught him to dance, and Watson replies 'You did.' I picture Holmes with his violin, playing whilst Mrs Hudson and the doctor go through the steps.
