Sherlock: 10 Worst Things Sherlock Holmes Ever Did

10. Constantly Destroying 221B Baker Street

Being a landlady must be tough, but it's exponentially tougher when your resident is a wild, uncaring and dangerous detective prone to fits of boredom.

This is one aspect of Sherlock's life that can be increasingly tough to sit through, as his blatant disregard for Mrs Hudson's property is awkward at best and horrible at worst.

Sherlock did a great many things throughout the show's run to his iconic home of 221B Baker Street. For one, he was always inviting criminal activity thanks to his profession, allowing dangerous individuals to make their way there. This even led to the homestead being blown to smithereens in the show's final episode.

However, further from just the activity he brings into it, he's also partial to destroying it himself. The most egregious example of this came when he shot up the wall with a handgun, firing into a spray-painted smiley face on the wall. His excuse for this, well, he was "bored".

This must have been a justifiable reason to kick someone out, so it's a wonder that Mrs Hudson never did so.
