A Small Mystery Hidden In Five Postage Stamps
"In 1993 the Royal Mail in Great Britain issued a set of five se-tenant stamps to honor the legendary fictional detective Sherlock Holmes.
The stamps depicted iconic scenes from The Reigate Squire, The Hound of the Baskervilles, The Six Napoleons, The Greek Interpreter,
and The Final Problem.
Hidden within the design of each stamp is a single letter; the five letters (D, E, L, O, and Y) can be anagrammed to form a relevant word other
than “yodel.” The question is whether you can locate the five letters. You will need good eyes, perhaps a magnifying glass, and a supersized image (available here – click twice). Those who are curious, but too impatient to do the searching, can avoid the fun and skip to the solution."

collège, revisiter Sherlock Holmes grâce à Dr House
"Nos élèves ... adorent ce personnage brillant, solitaire
et cynique qui a l'art de résoudre les énigmes médicales comme on
mène une enquête criminelle... ce docteur House ressemble à son grand-père

Pour les enseignants, il y a là matière à donner un souffle nouveau
aux séquences sur le genre policier.

par la lecture des récits de Conan Doyle, rédactions variées, réflexion
sur la langue, exploration du support filmique... "
