    So the stories of Sherlock Holmes are public domain and freely available online. I did my best but I can not find an instance of Sherlock Holmes locking a home. He does instruct someone to lock a door within their home, which they do, but that’s the closest I could find. There are also lots of cabinets and things that need locking and unlocking, but that’s hardly a home.

      Diabolical. I’m at least holding out hope that, at some point, children’s TV character Arthur Read and talk show host Conan O’Brien cowrote for the Finnish broadcaster Yle – else why would it be advertised on the covers of those books?
