Two immortal characters, a chance meeting, a visit to 221B Baker Street. The beginners of the most famous friendship ever recorded.
Sherlock Holmes and Dr John Watson, famous for their crime-solving capabilities, are mysterious figures themselves.

And what is the real location of the legendary 221B Baker Street? A thorough investigation commences as Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's most famous creations are placed under the magnifying glass...
