About this episode
"the Colonel's manner has been just a trifle cavalier" [SILV]
Having spent the last episode discussing the unusual setting and Holmes and Watson's friendship as displayed in "The Reigate Squires," our minds turned toward their host, Colonel Hayter. Or rather, of his fellow ranking military officers in the Canon.
In fact, we realized that in the Sherlock Holmes stories, the title "Colonel" usually means bad news. Consider with us the various colonels and see how it strikes you. It's just a Trifle.
