Other Media
The 1945 film Sherlock Holmes and the House of Fear is partly based on "The Five Orange Pips," as is "The Great Game," the third episode of the 2010 television series Sherlock, which uses several of Doyle's stories as inspiration. In the episode, a mobile phone receives messages with Greenwich Pips, with their numbers decreasing with each message, and Sherlock believes the five pips mean that he will be required to solve five riddles to prevent five bombs from exploding.
