“She alone spoke the truth; to her alone could he speak it. That was the source of her everlasting attraction for him, perhaps; she was a person to whom one could say what came into one’s head.”

For those of you interested in Sherlock’s use of a Mind Palace in ‘The Hounds of Baskerville’, you may find this Open University interview with Derren Brown enlightening (skip to 1 minute in for details on Memory Palaces.) Derren also discussed this subject in more depth in his book ‘Tricks of the Mind’.
Although many people have credited Derren for inspiring Mark Gatiss to include this in his episode in Sherlock series 2, he in fact confirmed on Twitter, “I first came across it in ‘Hannibal’, but Derren has been a help in so many ways.”
Acclaimed Mentalist Joe Riggs (@WorldOfJoeRiggs) has also written an excellent blog on Memory Palaces – or Mind Palaces as Sherlock has it - and how to design your own.
There’s also a short video on YouTube on how to improve your memory with the memory palace technique HERE
For the creation of Mind Palaces, Mind Huts, Mind Igloos, or Mind Yurts.
