“You know my words, Watson,” Holmes began, “Once you have eliminated the impossible...”

“Yes, yes, whatever remains, no matter how improbable, must be the truth.  We are, therefore, still left with a Giant Rat, which is currently wearing one of Mrs Hudson’s bonnets, and drinking tea out of a bone china tea cup.”

“And what do you conclude from that?”

“We’ve had another visit from Professor Challenger while we were out?”

“Or you drank too much last night at the reunion for your old rugby club.”

“Not the case.  I can still hear the Professor’s pterodactyl drumming in my head.”
