Personally, I''d walk a million miles in tight boots just to read his letters to the milkman'' Stephen Fry''Now, as in his lifetime, cab drivers, statesmen, academics, and raggedy-assed children sit spellbound at his feet. No wonder, then, if the pairing of Holmes and Watson has triggered more imitators than any other duo in literature'' John Le Carré
