Since this is Episode 333 and since there are three stories in
the Canon that incorporate the number three in their titles, we
thought it was time to turn our attention to the "magic number," as
three is known.
Why that number of students, gables, and Garridebs? What's the
significance of the number three that it should occupy such a
prominent role in the story titles? What other appearances of the
number are worth noting? It's just a Trifle.
If you have a suggestion for a Trifles episode, let us
know at trifles @ ihearofsherlock.com. If you use your idea on the
air, we'll send you some Sherlockian goodies.
