About This Sherlock Quiz
This quiz checks how well you remember BBC’s Sherlock. It covers Seasons 1 to 4 and the 2016 special, with episode-based items on cases, quotes, motives, and background details. Difficulty is mixed. Some questions are easy recalls. Others ask for small clues you only notice after a rewatch. You can guess, review the answer, and move on. Most people finish in a few minutes, and many discover gaps they did not expect.
What to expect is simple. You will face clear, single best answer questions. Each one points to a moment in the show, so your memory is doing the work, not tricks. We avoid vague wording. We avoid hype. If a fact is disputed or depends on a cut, we state it. Spoiler note applies for first-time viewers. If you want a clean run, bookmark this page and return after you finish the series.
