This is possibly the most fantastic, yet incredibly bizarre news Sherlockians could possibly have hoped for as reports have emerged that an actual Sherlock Holmes theme park is in the works with fans of the famous detective being able to play the crime solver, cracking various puzzles along the way.
But its going to cost some mega bucks and by mega bucks we mean like ?25 million for the park which will open in Portsmouth, where author Sir Arthur Conan Doyle used to live.
While no official dates have been announced for the fun fair, described as a “world class multimedia experience” will revolve around actual plots with characters including the super sleuths trusted side-kick Dr. Watson and arch enemy Moriaty.
The park wont just include rides but also holograms of its leading cast as fans will get the chance to explore dome of the stories most famous locations including, of course, Holmes very own Baker Street.
Sherlock Holmes has become one of the most iconic characters in British history since Conan Doyles hero first came to prominence in a series of short stories way back when in 1887.
Since then he has gone to be portrayed on screen by Basil Rathbone in the 1939 film series and of course by Robert Downy Jr. and Benedict Cumberbatch.
Steve Pitt of the Portsmouth Cultural Partnership—the man behind the madness explained, “It would be very interactive and high quality. There are so many tie-ins around the legacy of Sherlock Holmes being ‘born in Portsmouth.”
Well, Steve will be the first in line if this all goes ahead! Fingers crossed guys!
對(duì)《神探夏洛克》的粉絲們來(lái)說(shuō),這可能是最不可思議又奇妙無(wú)比的消息——據(jù)報(bào)道,一座真正的《神探夏洛克》主題公園正在建設(shè)中,大偵探的粉絲們將可以沿著這個(gè)公園一路破解各種謎題,體會(huì)破案的激情。
主題公園將要花費(fèi)數(shù)額巨大的資金,這座即將在樸茨茅斯開(kāi)放的公園大約要花費(fèi)2500萬(wàn)英鎊,作者亞瑟·柯南·道爾曾在樸茨茅斯生活過(guò)。
這個(gè)趣味主題公園的官方開(kāi)放日期暫未公布,它將重現(xiàn)劇中的真實(shí)情節(jié),大偵探的好伙伴華生醫(yī)生和死敵莫里亞蒂等人物都將出現(xiàn),這一主題公園被形容為“世界級(jí)多媒體體驗(yàn)”。
公園里將不僅擁有供游客乘騎的游樂(lè)設(shè)施,還會(huì)有主演陣容的全息照片。粉絲將有機(jī)會(huì)對(duì)故事里最出名的一些場(chǎng)所一探究竟,其中當(dāng)然包括福爾摩斯住的貝克街。
1887年,柯南·道爾的系列短篇故事里,這位主角首次進(jìn)入人們視線,從那以后,夏洛克·福爾摩斯就成為英國(guó)歷史上最具代表性的人物之一。
自此,從貝錫·羅斯本1939年的電影系列,到由小羅伯特·唐尼出演的電影、本尼迪克特·康伯巴奇出演的英劇,夏洛克持續(xù)被搬上熒屏。
樸茨茅斯文化合作公司的史蒂夫· 皮特是提出建設(shè)夏洛克主題公園這一瘋狂想法的人,他說(shuō):“這個(gè)公園將會(huì)有很強(qiáng)的互動(dòng)性,保持高質(zhì)量。夏洛克·福爾摩斯與樸茨茅斯有著千絲萬(wàn)縷的聯(lián)系,所以我們打算把主題公園建在這里。”
如果公園建設(shè)進(jìn)展順利,斯蒂夫?qū)?huì)成為第一個(gè)參觀者!大家翹首以盼吧!
