Four Sherlock Holmes and a Vampire (Who Is Also One of the Aforementioned Sherlock Holmes) a One-Page RPG Inspired by Justin Mcelroy V 1.2 Written by Andrew J
Four Sherlock Holmes and a Vampire (Who Is Also One of the Aforementioned Sherlock Holmes) A one-page RPG inspired by Justin McElroy v 1.2 written by Andrew J. Young (with thanks to Marty McGuire) The Game In Four Sherlock Holmes and a Vampire (Who Is Also One of the Aforementioned Sherlock Holmes)—officially abbreviated Four Sherlock Holmes and a Vampire—four players play four Sherlock Holmes who team up to solve mysteries and one-up each other. Secretly, one or more Sherlock Holmes are Suspicious Quirks (d6) vampires. Can the four Sherlock Holmes find out who among them is a creature of the night? This game requires paper, pencils, a d6, and a d20. 1. You loathe the smell of garlic. 2. You’re a Transylvanian citizen. Getting Started 3. You’re allergic to vitamin D. Everyone describes their Sherlock Holmes. Players can each play a version of (No sunlight for you!) Sherlock Holmes (Benedict Cumberbatch, Robert Downey Jr., Basil Rathbone, 4. You are a bat enthusiast. Peter Cushing, etc.), or they can create their own wry, observant detective. 5. You have a neck fetish. Everyone rolls in secret to determine their Suspicious Quirk. 6. You are a vampire. (Plus, Setting the Scene choose two of the above.) These four Sherlock Holmes join forces to investigate a terrible crime. One player describes the crime scene in as much detail as they like (leaving out the crime) and then rolls on the Scene Details table. Another player chooses which of those two details to incorporate and then rolls on the Scene Details table again.

Bunny Christie, Jack Thorne and I have been incubating After Life for a while and I hope it will be a soulful and satisfying show that showcases what Headlong and the National Theatre can do at their best. I’m a big fan of August Wilson’s peerless writing, and Tinuke Craig’s production of one of his greatest plays Jitney will be a meaningful expansion of the canon on the UK’s touring scene.

1 BBC Four Biopics
BBC Four biopics: Lessons in Trashy Respectability The broadcast of Burton and Taylor in July 2013 marked the end of a decade- long cycle of feature-length biographical dramas transmitted on BBC Four, the niche arts and culture digital channel of the public service broadcaster. The subjects treated in these biopics were various: political figures, famous cooks, authors of popular literature, comedians and singers. The dramas focused largely on the unhappy or complex personal lives of well-loved figures of British popular culture. From the lens of the 21st century, these dramas offered an opportunity for audiences to reflect on the culture and society of the 20th century, changing television’s famous function of ‘witness’ to one of ‘having witnessed’ and/or ‘remembering’ (Ellis, 2000). The programmes function as nostalgia pieces, revisiting personalities familiar to the anticipated older audience of BBC Four, working in concert with much of the archive and factual content on the digital broadcaster’s schedules. However, by revealing apparent ‘truths’ that reconfigure the public images of the figures they narrate, these programmes also undermine nostalgic impulses, presenting conflicting interpretations of the recent past. They might equally be seen as impudent incursions onto the memory of the public figures, unnecessarily exposing the real-life subjects to censure, ridicule or ex post facto critical judgement. Made thriftily on small budgets, the films were modest and spare in visual style but were generally well received critically, usually thanks to writerly screenplays and strong central performances. The dramas became an irregular but important staple of the BBC Four schedule, furnishing the channel with some of their highest ratings in a history chequered by low audience numbers.
