One of my favourite episodes because of the cozy feeling created in spite of the grime and addiction.

On your ratings, I always look forward to Final Problem, love the Mona Lisa opening, can't stand Solitary Cyclist, utterly dislike Copper Beaches which makes no logical sense to me; Musgrave Ritual is way too morbid while Brett's laughter in that episode feels unnatural. I like to view Final Problem and Empty House one right after the next: such great tension and expectation. Enjoy your podcast tremendously!

When frequently visiting this honoured podcast it is always like coming in to a safe and friendly port. And in this case to be welcomed by the dearest of old friends. This is an historically important audio treasure. I feel very grateful and more than a little emotional, to listen to this ' Burkeian ' Sherlockian conversation. I'm so grateful Burke agreed to participate and with Anna there to helpfully interject now and then. And I do hope, as claimed, it wasn't the disagreeable experience he worried about. Time is clearly passing. What Burke has given us will enjoy its immortality.

The best tv Holmes sorry Benedict. I vaguely remember Tom Baker played him on tv or was it my imagination??

Thank you so much for the interview! It answered questions I've had for years.

Wish I had listened to this earlier, this was wonderful and so very insightful! He will be sorely missed.

Thank You so much ❤

Where is the video??? I don’t care for a “podcast” …. Signed off the frigging podcast …..

The weirdest thing about this episode and the subsequent ones on initial viewing was that I absolutely didn’t notice the change in actor playing Watson!😂. I think because Hardwicke narrated the opening recap of the climax of the previous episode and then appeared in the scenes showing the aftermath of Holmes’ “death” I was completely fooled into assuming he’d been in all the previous episodes. This was before dvds, on-demand, internet etc, so at the time, to me, it was a seamless transition. Genius casting.

Books have been written about this series. Intricate studies of its perfection, from conception to execution. A wonder for public and critics alike. A crowning achievement for the dazzling performance of its central figure. The flawless weave of all the constituting elements. A pleasure for the mind and senses. This happy miracle of the 1980s, and it is ours forever !

The One and Only

I was thinking when you were explaining about humbugs that you would perhaps tie them in with their role as an aid to stop smoking. Now that they have nicotine patches and vapes they may have fallen out of favor, but they used to be used to keep your mouth and hands busy when you were trying to quit. This makes the timing of the humbugs fit right in, since Lestrade is questioning whether or not they can smoke and Holmes says "no" (in no uncertain terms). Right after that then Watson offers the humbug. I definitely remember people who were trying to stop smoking carrying, as Watson does, bags or pockets full of humbugs to see them through. At least they were awfully big on that back in the 60s and 70s.

I have recently rediscovered my love for the series and I want to thank you for the podcast. I knew that Doyle wanted to be done with Sherlock and was curious how 13 became 56. Amazing how massive an impact this character has had. Such a shame that he died before getting to complete the series. His portrayal was superlative ❤

Fantastic. Disappointed I couldn't make it but great to hear all the stories & have ordered a pack to console myself. Well done guys

Watson, DO sit down

At 1:19:58 they talk about colonel coming to the window and looking at Holmes and Watson from the window and that this gave away that he was the culprit. Well in this episode multiple characters have that kinda moment, the distraction moment you could say. When Holmes and Watson leave after talking to the ticket seller at the train station, he immediately picks up the phone to call someone to possibly report about Holmes' inquiry. And Sidney Johnson, the older man showing Holmes the plans makes a suspicious "they're getting too close to truth" kinda expression after Holmes leaves the office. So they gave all three characters suspicious moments.

Thanks for sharing, and thank you for all your hard work making Brettcon happen. Just listening to the podcast made me smile. Thank you again, and Cheers!

Just discovered your wonderful channel by accident. I've watched everything. Will you be doing more content going forward?

When Oldacre walked into his office, McFarlane should have said "No thank you, Sir. I know the history of yourself and my Mother, and I have no wish to engage with you on any matter. Good day." End of story !

This is audio not video as requested

Just stumbled on to this and am thoroughly enjoying it! That Holdhurst theory y’all read out during the discussion sounds to me like how a modern adaptation would handle/alter this story

I know I'm 3 years late on this, but just having listened to this episode, I just wanted to mention that the DVD set of The Return of Sherlock Holmes, which we have here in Finland (published by Finnkino), has the episode Priory School as the second episode on the DVD.

I loved David Burke as Watson. I missed his portrayl of Watson. However i also liked Edward Hardwicke

A Herculean episode gentlemen: thank you so much! You articulated many of my confusions/frustrations with this episode, which I have watched many times and always lose the thread partway through, which is a shame. I’m a little surprised though that there was no mention of Jonny Lee Miller’s “Hounded” Elementary episode, since Cumberbatch’s Sherlock was on the menu? I resisted Elementary for a long time but now it’s a favorite iteration.

Thanks a million for this episode.... So good to hear about this wonderful event especially for those of us who couldn't be there

Can i know the name of the star music

So happy to hear how well this event went! It sounds like a truly memorable and heartwarming day for all involved. Wahay!

This was everything I've ever wanted. Thank you.

A few years ago I had the chance to ask Tom Baker about Jeremy. TB was effusive in his praise. Here's a very short clip of TB saying more or less the same [not to me]... ua-cam.com/video/QXFmf6jpfCI/v-deo.html

Didn't even know there was a "Brettcon". So amazing that there is such a thing. Thanks for sharing👍

Wow sounds like you all had a great time. Thanks for sharing. I was grinning all the way through. Hopefully you might do another 🖤

Great to hear that it went so well

This sounds like a wonderful experience for those fortunate to be there. Great work Luke, Gus & David!

Beautiful podcast! It was pure joy listening to this! Brettcon was one of the best experiences I've ever had! Thank you very much for making this event so memorable! ☺️

Congratulations on making this event happen, and bringing together so many people who love the Granada Holmes series. Your podcast has helped revive my love for the episodes. I've watched them so many times, well, they lost their bit of the original magic. With your recaps, in-depth research and interviews, they feel new again. I wish I could have been there enjoying the atmosphere. I am sure Jeremy, Edward and all the actors in the series who have passed felt the love.

Smiled through this whole podcast. It was like I was reliving those 2 wonderful days of BrettCon all over again. Memories to treasure!

For all of us who simply were not able to attend, please let us know when & where we can see any of the photos/videos from this event if & when they are available. Thx!

I don't know whether to say "Thank you!" or "Congratulations!". Absolutely brilliant job, from the moment you lads conceived of this event to, what sounds like, the amazing execution of it. I'm sure all of the actors and others involved with the Granada productions felt tremendous gratitude to each of you for making this happen, not just the "fans" of the show and of your wonderful podcasts.

Words cannot describe how fabulous the event and the following Sunday were. Amazing job Gus, Luke and David.

Is Marsha on Ravelry? A website for knitters... she could put up her blanket as a project there...

One of the hidden gems of the internet, this podcast!!! Well done, and congratulations on a successful event.

I wish I could have been there.

Thank you for doing this! I was so disappointed that I couldn't make it...

I appreciated this recap. I would love to see video on this gathering and your trip in general.👍🙏😎

❤

I’m really disappointed that I couldn’t join you for the weekend, but happy that everyone had a great time

Literally watching Lady Carfax as we speak. 😊 Noone was more devastated than me missing it, especially as I was so close to going. Jack Klaff and Joanna David I'd love to have spoken to.

Can't wait!😊💙
