David Burke as Dr. John Watson (from Sherlock Holmes)
I have no idea what Burke is up to now. He left Sherlock Holmes to spend time with his family and work with the Royal Shakespeare Company in the late 1980s, but I can't find any more recent information than that. Presumably he left acting altogether, or at least moved to less roles in the limelight. In any case, this is my Sim of Burke as Watson.
About the Sim
Like my Sherlock Sim, I have included two versions of Watson: an Adult version and a Young Adult version. The YA version looks almost physically identical to the Adult version. Each is in a separate .rar file below. You can download both or just one, if you want. I have checked the files with Clean Installer and they are both hack- and unwanted content-free. Made with BodyShop. Yes, I know the eyes are rather "staring": it's an exaggeration of Burke's eyes, to get them to show up in The Sims.
Age: Adult/Young Adult (See note above)
Gender: Male
Compatibility: You need University for the Young Adult life stage to show up. If you don't have Uni, you can still play with the adult Watson.
Custom Content:
Eyes: Watson Eyes, a Maxis recolour by me.
Everything else: By Maxis - See note below for clothing.
Clothing
I regret I'm not skilled enough to make detailed Victorian clothing. However, the Sim is pictured below in an outfit from All About Style. It is the "YA/A Brown Business Suit", currently on Page 2 of Victorian-Male-Casual. Their site policy forbids me from including the clothing in an uploaded Sim, and I intend to fully abide by their rules So I am giving you a link to the clothing: Get Victorian clothing for Watson here. The Sim will be clothed in default Maxis clothing, for the reason given above, when you download him.
Installation: Download either (or both) of the .rar files below. UnRAR it to anywhere and open the enclosed .sims2pack file to install.
Sharing: Please do not upload to the Exchange. If for some reason you want to include Watson in an upload here, MTS2, feel free but give me credit. Please do not upload to any other websites, as it's all too easy for custom content to go unaccredited these days :p
Suggested Downloads
Shameless self-promotion: Download my Sherlock Holmes Sim so Watson won't get lonely I have also made a Victorian Everyday Outfit and a Victorian Formal Outfit, primarily for my Sherlock Sim but they look fine on Watson too. I also have a Painting of Reisenbach Falls to hang above the fireplace of 221b.
For a top hat to go with the Formal outfit, check out Besen's Top Hat.
I hope to continue my Sherlock project soon. Hopefully there will be a Mrs Hudson, perhaps Miss Hunter and Miss Smith, and maybe a couple of Irregulars!
P.S. Don't forget to press the Thanks button... I get all happy when you do that :lovestruc

Install Instructions
1. Download: Click the download link to save the .rar or .zip file(s) to your computer.
2. Extract the zip, rar, or 7z file.
3. Install: Double-click on the .sims2pack file to install its contents to your game. The files will automatically be installed to the proper location(s).
- You may want to use the Sims2Pack Clean Installer instead of the game's installer, which will let you install sims and pets which may otherwise give errors about needing expansion packs. It also lets you choose what included content to install. Do NOT use Clean Installer to get around this error with lots and houses as that can cause your game to crash when attempting to use that lot. Get S2PCI here: Clean Installer Official Site.
- For a full, complete guide to downloading complete with pictures and more information, see: Game Help: Downloading for Fracking Idiots.
- Custom content not showing up in the game? See: Game Help: Getting Custom Content to Show Up.
- If you get an error that says "This content requires expansion pack data that is not installed", please use either Clean Installer to install this sim.
