Topic: Doctor Watson


  
  Doctor Watson - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Watson was almost killed in the long and arduous retreat from the battle, but was saved by his orderly, Murray.
Watson is not a stupid man (he is, after all, a medical doctor, and one whose talents Holmes holds in the highest esteem), but he does not have Holmes' insight.
James Wilson is meant to be a direct reference to Watson, (with House himself being a direct reference to Holmes.) In addition to the similarity of their names, Wilson serves in the show as House's only real friend and confidante, and occasionally assists him in solving particularly difficult cases.

 All-Consuming Fire
Watson excuses himself to answer a call of nature, but on his way back to the others he is attacked by Maupertuis and Surd, and barely escapes with his life.
Watson locates Maupertuis’ army, but spots movement on the surrounding slopes as well, and realises that the ostensibly peaceful natives are gathering -- and are heavily armed.
As usual, Watson writes up the adventure in his memoirs, and his friend Arthur Conan Doyle helps him to turn it into a novel; and, as usual, Watson and his friend’s names are changed to “James Watson” and “Sherlock Holmes” to protect their true identities.

 John Watson - The Good Doctor?
Doctor Watson, as everyone in the English- and non-English-speaking world can tell you, is the companion of Sherlock Holmes, the rather-less-bright sidekick to the great detective and second member of the renowned sleuthing partnership.
John Hamish Watson was born in England in the early 1850s (1852 by some accounts), and after the death of his mother, he and his brother Henry Jr were taken by their father to spend some of their boyhood in the Australian goldfieds.
This was in 1881, and from the time he set foot on Portsmouth jetty, health "irretrievably ruined", Doctor Watson's time with Holmes was about to begin, and their subsequent adventures together are a matter of record to all good Sherlockians.

 The Doctor
Doctor Jeremiah Watson was no beauty in face, form, feature, and if the truth must be told, not very amiable either, so that he was the last person one would think of taking for the hero of a story, for his very nature was unromantic.
Betsy was as uncommunicative as her master, and her deafness served as a pretext for not answering the thousand and one questions, put to her by the inquisitive portion of the community of Westford; she never heard what she did not want to hear.
Jack, the boy aforesaid, did not sleep in the house, and never was further than the kitchen and office, so that he could communicate nothing, and the penetralia of Doctor Watson’s house was an unexplored mystery to the curious, and wonder-loving gossips of the place.

 Outpost Gallifrey: Reviews
Whilst relegating the Doctor to the role of a secondary character might seem like a mistake to some, this is an experimental novel which allows Holmes and Watson to take centre stage.
Here, however, the need to have Doctor Watson at least have some idea of what has happened to tie back to the original conceit for the story to unfold means that the arguably more human extracts by Bernice Summerfield are kept to a minimum.
In Victorian London the Doctor is magnanimous in allowing Holmes the freedom to use his skills to piece together parts of the puzzle that are required to up the ante on the final Ry'leh assault.

 Rex Stout -- Watson Was A Woman
I believe that all he said, after Watson recovered from the faint, was this, "My dear, I am willing to try it again," for he was a courteous man. And it was Watson, who, attempting to cook up an explanation, made such a terrible hash of it.
It was Watson who wrote immortal tales, therefore if she left a record of her name anywhere it must have been in the tales themselves.
