Basil Rathbone was an admirable man. After Nigel Bruce (Dr Watson) died, he apparently refused lucrative offers to reprise the role of Sherlock Holmes on the grounds that he couldn't imagine playing opposite anyone else.

These Basil Rathbone movies are my “go to” movies when I just want to relax with a great old film. They are a pleasure to watch. I’ve watched them many, many times. B &W are the best.

Nope, we're all still here and we are of all ages too. I experienced something quite similar when I listen to a Beatles song and then go to the comments and see a comment where someone says I'm 13 and I love the Beatles or I'm 28 and I know every Beatles song by heart! It really does the heart good, doesn't it?
@@observelearn2345 we can't change what was then, we progressed from there which is of course the best thing we could have done. Sometimes humans are stupid and slow
I am 68 and have been watching these movies my whole life. I own the set and never get tired of watching them. I basically only watch old movies from the 30’s thru the 50’s and a bunch from the 60’s. I think I’ve been an old soul my whole life.
People’s tastes differ I guess! But for me personally, these old movies are just beautiful. Just the accents alone fill me with nostalgia, an era long gone. 😢
@@bobbywimsy6741 We Brits didn't want that anymore........we allowed the railways and all our other national treasures to be stolen, and then sold on the open market by those paragons of virtues, the patriotic Conservative party, the old English hearty full of gas thats farty Nigel Farage, will take us back to those good old days......
@@cindydott452 Totally agree. I’ve always felt that Rathbone’s interpretation of Holmes was true to the stories by Conan Doyle. But the portrayal of Watson as an idiot and a buffoon was not at all true to the original character. The movies were entertaining, but the portrayal of Watson by Nigel Bruce was cringe inducing for fans of the books.
FINALLY WATSON UNMASKED I can’t take HIM Anymore just when I think he can’t get any Doppier then he triples my expectation please do something I can’t even look at his face that surprise look he Gives no more pass the barf bag
Yeah when he got in fight with the professor. And when he made the old guy confess he stole teapots even if Holmes’s already knows the fact that there were thieves on the train. And he told the professor he solved a crime! It’s hilarious.
It always sickens me that Universal decided that Watson was a BrainDamagedAsshole. The Rathbone/Bruce films are literally the only adaptations to portray the character as a moronic clown that could never actually be a doctor.
There is something so cozy and sentimental about these films, especially taking place on a neat looking train with fancy looking booths☺️ especially that fancy looking lady 😍
So lucky to have these priceless gems available to watch. Even seeing these Sherlock Holmes movies many times, I always seem to find something new in them. Just great.

The sound of a moving train is so relaxing and then add a little Sherlock Holmes in the mix and I am so much more comfortable. Take care all u Sherlock Holme fans, from Rachel ov the UK Sheffield xxx
I have to say, that this is by far, the very best rendition, of "Terror by Night", on UA-cam. Superb audio and visual, a fitting tribute to Basil Rathbone and Nigel Bruce, this later entry to the series, was one of the very best put forth by Universal Studios. I've been watching these films, since I was a kid, with my Dad, now I watch them with my Son. I am 64, and I enjoy these films, more than ever! ......
I wondered how the quality was so outstanding. Now please tell me, how many diamonds were there? The real one, and how many fake ones, and how many times were they switched. I just can't figure it out.
Oh ! How l miss our old British Rail carriages and the little dining cabs , wonderful memories of my youth , often used to see newlyweds going on honeymoon with the bride still in her beautiful gown , families throwing confetti on the platform. No radio, no mobile ' phones' no computers, gone all gone . Thank You for the old films and nostalgic memories.
Bruce portrayed Watson as a profoundly stupid oaf. The character in the novels and short stories is an intelligent man.The Rathbone/Bruce films are literally the only adaptations that decided Dr. John Watson was a BrainDamagedAsshole.
The best comfort films . Seriously cannot sleep without these 🥰Worn out 3 box sets of dvd’s over the years. Now can listen on my iPad while going to sleep 💜
Wonderful Stuff! Mr. Rathbone Superb (as in all his films), Mr. Bruce v good too (see Hitchcock films); Love Lestrade's humour and everyman- ness. Excellent ( also flippin really creepy from some) perfomances. Fab Dialogue, direction, violin in the music bits, wardrobe, props (even a sarcophagus!), art direction and fx!...all 'set' on the Flying Scotsman! (a fab shot of the front of the real train too)! I was an ASM in theatre..so really love/miss quality productions.
It really is incredible to note just how truly satisfying it still is to watch these Rathbone / Bruce Sherlock Holms movies even after multiple views over the many years, and, for now nearly 75 year old films...!! The Definition of True Classics.
Who can criticise these old but absolute gems . It brings me back to watching them on late night TV in Ireland , with my late father . He enjoyed Watson and his comedic ways.
I'm not sure just what it is about a crime thriller set on a moving train, it's something I've never been able to put my finger on it, all i know is that there is something undeniably "relaxing" (for want of a better word) about these classic movies, they Never get old. Black & white movies by their very nature are so calming especially during the horrible wet & cold weather we are blessed with here in Britain, a nice warm fire, wrapped up in a fleece blanket and a classic black & white crime thriller/horror movie and you're guaranteed a warm & cosy hour of sheer entertainment. I have this fantastic Sherlock Holmes series of films starring the brilliant Basil Rathbone already on dvd but when i saw this on youtube i had to watch it as it's been a few years since I've seen these. THANKYOU SO MUCH for uploading these classics, im sure many others will enjoy these....THEY NEVER GET OLD!!

I love these old Sherlock Holmes movies 🍿😊 I watch them every day there interesting and listen to them while I'm doing stuff during the day 😁 thank you for bringing them to us all 😊
Your statement has put in a nutshell the whole truth about the immortal B.Rathbone ,the only actor who played Holmes so close to the original Doyle's immortal character
@@mariaretali Don't forget Peter Jeremy William Huggins, known professionally as Jeremy Brett, who portrayed Sherlock Holmes in four Granada TV series from 1984 to 1994 (41 episodes). If you haven't watched them, please do, you will not be disappointed. Ciao from Little Italy 🇮🇹 Montréal
I’ve watched this film at least 25 times. Love it. And the part that always gets me is Lady Margaret whose son is murdered on the train and she’s far more upset about losing her Diamond than her son.
Watson by the one and only Bruce. A sickening parody, portraying Dr. Watson as a MoronicBrainDamagedAsshole. This series is literally the only adaptation to show Watson as a complete and utter imbecile. It's pathetic.
Brilliant film, all the Rathbone and Bruce Sherlock's are a great , what a duo. They set a benchmark that in my view will never be matched for Sherlock Holmes
I have watched every Sherlock Holmes I can think of, but I always return to these two crime busters, Basil Rathbone and Nigel Bruce are What Laurel and Hardy were to the silent films.Unmatched. !
I can totally immerse myself in the Rathbone/Sherlock films, they are a wonderful escape from the harsh realities of the 21st C.. I love the simplicity of this fictional world even the murders are quite gentlemanly if that's at all possible. Basil is truly the epitimy of Holmes.
These movies are the best, Sherlock Holmes is on every Sunday morning at 6:30 on the movie channel free TV you don't need cable for any of these movies they're on free all the time love the entire Sherlock home series I can watch him a thousand times. Thank you so much for posting these wonderful videos.
This is the third or fourth time over many years that I have viewed "Terror by Night." The plot, pacing, and acting by the primary and supporting cast is of high quality entertainment. This viewing was enhanced by the high quality visual and auditory clarity of the film.
I remember sitting watching these with my dad as a kid, recorded on vhs and replayed over and over. Nowadays they take pride of place in a DVD box set. Amusing though how no one my own age seems to have even heard of these old films despite being so much better than any other rendition.
I have loved Holmes and Watson since I discovered the stories by Conan Doyle years ago. Read them countless times to my daughter. I appreciate these films so much replay value like many older black and whites. Great interiors clean well groomed actors and excellent acting. So much new material has zero replay value. These are classic gems. Thank you.
I have seen most of these Basil Rathbone-Nigel Bruce Sherlock Holmes - Dr Watson films. They are always enjoyed rewatched. They are the best Holmes’ films to me. They are timeless classics well crafted.
I love the sequence of Watson carrying out his own personal investigation, and himself getting interrogated by the professor under great duress. And the smile on Holmes' face after Watson's bumbling interrogation of the couple who stole a tea pot. "Serves them right if I got a bit tiddly".
January is my Basil Rathbone-Nigel Bruce Sherlock Holmes month. I watch every Sherlock Holmes movie with these two stars. I've been doing this for such a long time that when press 'play' I feel like I am hanging out with two old friends.
Greetings from Scotland. ..I totally get where your coming from...I used to watch these whilst staying at my grans at the weekend...I'd be around 8 at the time back in the late 70s...the scarlet claw scared me to death lol...simpler times and memories of people long gone...wouldn't trade those times for any sum
Sherlock Holmes is one of my favorite book series and movies. Im a big history nerd and love old black and white television. My favorite is the tv series with Ronald Howard as Sherlock Holmes, this one is awesome also. My all time favorite is Abbott and Costello though. Lol! I See this was uploaded quite a few years ago but thanks for the awesome film.
Thank you so much for these immortal films. As an Indian and a devout Sherlock fan, not many Indians are led here but who are, wouldn't leave it unseen. Transcending countries of course, the entire world wouldn't leave it unwatched.
I always love these Sherlock Holmes movies made during WW2 ! I Told my wife earlier today I believe Nigel Bruce was the true star as his acting skills were simply great! So thank you Sauce! I for one watch all of your movies I can! I seriously appreciate you!
Simply superb ! Full credit to the director for a well crafted thriller with excellent editing . Rathbone and Bruce are brilliant. These movies never age however old they are. I can keep watching them any number of times .
Probably my favourite film of all time. I don't know the name of the actress that was bringing the coffin of her 'mother' to Edinburgh, but I find her to be the most beautiful lady that I've ever seen, my missus agrees with me. She, whoever she is, is absolutely beautiful. Just saying.
People are not kidding, Renee Godfrey's "British" accent is absolutely PAINFUL. Thank goodness she wasn't talking in most of her scenes (not purely by chance I'm sure) because she was a beauty. Outstanding video quality for such an old movie.
Love black and white movies, especially basil rathbone as Sherlock Holmes. The detective movies from the 1940s are also a favourite. Thank you for making these classics available.
There's not a wasted moment in these Sherlock Holmes Mysteries of Rathbone and Bruce. In between an hour and seventy-five minutes everything you will need to see, hear and know comes at you at a quick and measured pace. I like that. Compact, spare and very lean yet these movies stand-up so well to time and remain entertaining after repeated viewings. They are very hard-wearing after a fashion.
Have the entire collection on DVD, always takes me back to my childhood, watching these movies on BBC2. Made between 1939 and 1946, a brilliant movie series :)
I just love the ramblings old houses on the MOOR. I've been reading mystery stories about the moors for a very long time & they never cease at add a sense of foreboding & a little fear. :-)
Indeed. I, particularly like The Hound of The Baskervilles. Baskerville Hall (in the book), was based upon 2 places, one, I forget where but the other was Hayford Hall which was just up the road from where I used to live in Lower Dean, South Dartmoor. So, The Hound of the Baskervilles means a lot to me. I love Dartmoor. I'm honestly not sure which version I like the most, Basil Rathbone's, Jeremy Brett's, Richard Roxburgh's or Matt Frewer's. They are all good for different reasons and cover different aspects that others leave out. The Richard Roxburgh one with John Nettles is really good overall but Richard wasn't my favourite Sherlock however, he wasn't bad at all. I can't decide who the best Sherlock is though, either Jeremy Brett or Basil Rathbone I'd say but that's simply my own opinion. You should try walking across Dartmoor during the night. I don't believe in anything supernatural but one has to be especially mindful at times like that. You could be walking along, unable to see your hand when it's touching your nose. All these noises that you've never heard are everywhere and so loud! All of a sudden your feet are wet..."Am I in a river? Will I drown any second?" Then you fall into mud and gorse getting cut to ribbons. Oh my God! There are horses in my face! They all spook and you are begging that it was only you that spooked them. The whole time you're thinking "it's not real, it's not real." All the while you're thinking that the Hound will pounce any second! The worst of course, is when your eyes start playing tricks on you and you think there's actually someone there until you realise it's just your brain. You come across a figure in the dark..."oh, it's just my brain". "Hello!" "Aaargh!" Why would they be walking their dog at 3am? Just to scare me. It definitely induces fear even during the day. It's so barren. That's why I like it. Anyway, I shall shut up now. I hope you enjoy more mystery stories. Take care.
Nigel Bruce... Need I say more.? Brilliant!, "we can't tell that without an au-TOPSY" ... also brilliant when he's doing the "questioning". This film was his finest hour.. Though obviously great in all of these.. His whit is soooo good... "Serves them right if I got a bit tiddly" ..
I just love everything about these films the chivalry the smoking rooms the tweed Watsons buffoonery,the poker faces , the comb overs, oh and the lady in the black lace , wasn’t she a Dish...Absolutely Marvellous...
Great classic. So many cryptic looks from so many fine actors/actresses designed to throw us off the scent as it were. Such great suspense created on such a simple set. And, Renee Godfrey, wow, was she looking good.
I love these movies,,also. Have watched them since the 60's when I was a child with my Grandma on you small black and white TV. Many happy memories. : )
Greetings from Scotland. ..I too would watch these on the weekend staying at my grans house...the scarlet claw scared me to death..aaaah simpler times...wouldn't trade those memories for any sum

@@mariaretali Don't forget Peter Jeremy William Huggins, known professionally as Jeremy Brett, who portrayed Sherlock Holmes in four Granada TV series from 1984 to 1994 (41 episodes). If you haven't watched them, please do, you will not be disappointed.
Ciao from Little Italy 🇮🇹 Montréal
Now the nights are drawing in,and it’s getting colder.i love watching this all cosy at night
Victoria smith What a great expression of thought. Think I’ll join you.
Victoria Smith : don't forget the hot water bottle to complete the coziness.
Hello! I'm THREE YEARS into your future! 😂😂😂
I’ve watched this film at least 25 times. Love it. And the part that always gets me is Lady Margaret whose son is murdered on the train and she’s far more upset about losing her Diamond than her son.
I love watching these old movies. Such gentler more innocent times. I watch them many times over. Thankyou 😊
WW2 was at that time. Not so innocent times
Holmes by the one and only Rathbone , a unique acting treat and a timeless example of how the Holmes character should be assumed on screen
Watson by the one and only Bruce. A sickening parody, portraying Dr. Watson as a MoronicBrainDamagedAsshole. This series is literally the only adaptation to show Watson as a complete and utter imbecile. It's pathetic.
Love these black and white Holmes movies. Just the thing for a rainy afternoon. Never get tired of watching them.
Brilliant film, all the Rathbone and Bruce Sherlock's are a great , what a duo.
They set a benchmark that in my view will never be matched for Sherlock Holmes
Will never be matched!
Thank you, I love these old Sherlock Holmes movies. . . They are a lost classic artform. Now where is the pizza. . . LOL
The Rathbone and Bruce Sherlock Holmes films are awesome.
I have watched every Sherlock Holmes I can think of, but I always return to these two crime busters, Basil Rathbone and Nigel Bruce are What Laurel and Hardy were to the silent films.Unmatched.
!
The train appears to be going about 200 mph. 😁
I can totally immerse myself in the Rathbone/Sherlock films, they are a wonderful escape from the harsh realities of the 21st C.. I love the simplicity of this fictional world even the murders are quite gentlemanly if that's at all possible. Basil is truly the epitimy of Holmes.
These movies are the best, Sherlock Holmes is on every Sunday morning at 6:30 on the movie channel free TV you don't need cable for any of these movies they're on free all the time love the entire Sherlock home series I can watch him a thousand times. Thank you so much for posting these wonderful videos.
A short film with a lot of plot...,with the talents of Basil Rathbone, Nigel Bruce & David Hoey you have a classic!
My favorite Sherlock Holmes movie. Thankyou
Yes, these films are great. When I was young, these are the films that kindled my interest in Holmes and the whole mystery genre.
This is the third or fourth time over many years that I have viewed "Terror by Night." The plot, pacing, and acting by the primary and supporting cast is of high quality entertainment. This viewing was enhanced by the high quality visual and auditory clarity of the film.
How many times have you watched it now? (5 or so years later...)
I remember sitting watching these with my dad as a kid, recorded on vhs and replayed over and over. Nowadays they take pride of place in a DVD box set. Amusing though how no one my own age seems to have even heard of these old films despite being so much better than any other rendition.

LOL, when I was a kid color TV's was the new thing! :)
Still relevant in 2022. You can't stop an excellent piece of artwork.
Ha! I think the coffin maker also played the sea captain in the movie with the "Good Comrades". Love recognizing the same actors in different films.
I have loved Holmes and Watson since I discovered the stories by Conan Doyle years ago. Read them countless times to my daughter. I appreciate these films so much replay value like many older black and whites. Great interiors clean well groomed actors and excellent acting. So much new material has zero replay value. These are classic gems. Thank you.
Rathbone and Bruce make a great Holmes/Watson tag team. Many thanks for sharing...
I have seen most of these Basil Rathbone-Nigel Bruce Sherlock Holmes - Dr Watson films. They are always enjoyed rewatched. They are the best Holmes’ films to me. They are timeless classics well crafted.
I love the sequence of Watson carrying out his own personal investigation, and himself getting interrogated by the professor under great duress. And the smile on Holmes' face after Watson's bumbling interrogation of the couple who stole a tea pot. "Serves them right if I got a bit tiddly".
I can't wait until I can use tiddly in Scrabble.

Love these old black and white movies💝💝💝💝💝
January is my Basil Rathbone-Nigel Bruce Sherlock Holmes month. I watch every Sherlock Holmes movie with these two stars. I've been doing this for such a long time that when press 'play' I feel like I am hanging out with two old friends.
Isn't it August now?
Greetings from Scotland. ..I totally get where your coming from...I used to watch these whilst staying at my grans at the weekend...I'd be around 8 at the time back in the late 70s...the scarlet claw scared me to death lol...simpler times and memories of people long gone...wouldn't trade those times for any sum
Sherlock Holmes is one of my favorite book series and movies. Im a big history nerd and love old black and white television. My favorite is the tv series with Ronald Howard as Sherlock Holmes, this one is awesome also. My all time favorite is Abbott and Costello though. Lol! I See this was uploaded quite a few years ago but thanks for the awesome film.
Thank you for posting this movie. Very atmospheric and witty as well. Surprisingly provided some truly frightening scenes
Thank you so much for these immortal films. As an Indian and a devout Sherlock fan, not many Indians are led here but who are, wouldn't leave it unseen. Transcending countries of course, the entire world wouldn't leave it unwatched.
In my opinion, the best Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson..
I always love these Sherlock Holmes movies made during WW2 ! I Told my wife earlier today I believe Nigel Bruce was the true star as his acting skills were simply great! So thank you Sauce! I for one watch all of your movies I can! I seriously appreciate you!
Simply superb ! Full credit to the director for a well crafted thriller with excellent editing . Rathbone and Bruce are brilliant. These movies never age however old they are. I can keep watching them any number of times .
Thanks Barry Norman
Probably my favourite film of all time. I don't know the name of the actress that was bringing the coffin of her 'mother' to Edinburgh, but I find her to be the most beautiful lady that I've ever seen, my missus agrees with me. She, whoever she is, is absolutely beautiful. Just saying.

The stunning Renee Godfrey!
Brilliant story, brilliantly retold for screen, brilliantly acted and filmed. What an excellent double twist at the very end. Thank you!
Excellent! Thank you so much... 🍿. 👍👍
Thank you thank you also for these movies and Agatha Christie’s too! I love mysteries and I so appreciate you sending them out to us! God bless!
Thanks for watching PizzaFLIX. May the Sauce be with you.
Great stuff. I love B&W old shows. Whoever took the time to do this is a real back-in-the-oldays good guy and I thank them very much!
Luv B&W CLASSIC FILMS!😀
People are not kidding, Renee Godfrey's "British" accent is absolutely PAINFUL. Thank goodness she wasn't talking in most of her scenes (not purely by chance I'm sure) because she was a beauty. Outstanding video quality for such an old movie.
Me and my we special freind Margaret loved these films called each other sherlock and Holmes sadly she passed away always in my heart
,were you able to solve it probably moriarty
Sorry for your loss...
Touched by the humble kaffar? How could they say such a thing in a movie. That's demeaning.
@@reggaefan2700 a different time
So sorry for ur los, I pray for u and her family, and yes I love these old movies as well
Love black and white movies, especially basil rathbone as Sherlock Holmes. The detective movies from the 1940s are also a favourite. Thank you for making these classics available.
B&W. movies,,,,
the best of the
best,!!
There's not a wasted moment in these Sherlock Holmes Mysteries of Rathbone and Bruce. In between an hour and seventy-five minutes everything you will need to see, hear and know comes at you at a quick and measured pace. I like that. Compact, spare and very lean yet these movies stand-up so well to time and remain entertaining after repeated viewings. They are very hard-wearing after a fashion.
Don't worry, the sleeves will ride up with wear.
Fantastic and the orchestra at the start gets me every time, brilliant and i think Basil Rathbone
is my all time favorite Holmes
Saw them all back in the Seventies on TV, really enjoy seeing them again. Thanks!
Basil is the quintessential Sherlock can watch it any number of times thanks for uploading
Thank you so much for sharing the beautiful movie
Grew up watching these with my Mom late night. Seen every one of them with Basil and Nigel.
Lestrade was a pip aswell.
I’ve been desperately in love with Basil Rathbone for over 55 years! Unrequited love unfortunately. 😩❤🥰
Have the entire collection on DVD, always takes me back to my childhood, watching these movies on BBC2.
Made between 1939 and 1946, a brilliant movie series :)
I just love the ramblings old houses on the MOOR. I've been reading mystery stories about the moors for a very long time & they never cease at add a sense of foreboding & a little fear. :-)
Indeed. I, particularly like The Hound of The Baskervilles. Baskerville Hall (in the book), was based upon 2 places, one, I forget where but the other was Hayford Hall which was just up the road from where I used to live in Lower Dean, South Dartmoor. So, The Hound of the Baskervilles means a lot to me. I love Dartmoor. I'm honestly not sure which version I like the most, Basil Rathbone's, Jeremy Brett's, Richard Roxburgh's or Matt Frewer's. They are all good for different reasons and cover different aspects that others leave out. The Richard Roxburgh one with John Nettles is really good overall but Richard wasn't my favourite Sherlock however, he wasn't bad at all. I can't decide who the best Sherlock is though, either Jeremy Brett or Basil Rathbone I'd say but that's simply my own opinion.
You should try walking across Dartmoor during the night. I don't believe in anything supernatural but one has to be especially mindful at times like that. You could be walking along, unable to see your hand when it's touching your nose. All these noises that you've never heard are everywhere and so loud! All of a sudden your feet are wet..."Am I in a river? Will I drown any second?" Then you fall into mud and gorse getting cut to ribbons. Oh my God! There are horses in my face! They all spook and you are begging that it was only you that spooked them.
The whole time you're thinking "it's not real, it's not real." All the while you're thinking that the Hound will pounce any second!
The worst of course, is when your eyes start playing tricks on you and you think there's actually someone there until you realise it's just your brain. You come across a figure in the dark..."oh, it's just my brain".
"Hello!"
"Aaargh!"
Why would they be walking their dog at 3am? Just to scare me.
It definitely induces fear even during the day. It's so barren. That's why I like it.
Anyway, I shall shut up now. I hope you enjoy more mystery stories. Take care.
Nigel Bruce... Need I say more.? Brilliant!, "we can't tell that without an au-TOPSY" ... also brilliant when he's doing the "questioning". This film was his finest hour.. Though obviously great in all of these.. His whit is soooo good... "Serves them right if I got a bit tiddly" ..
I've always love Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson. Thanks for downloading this and sharing it.
I just love everything about these films the chivalry the smoking rooms the tweed Watsons buffoonery,the poker faces , the comb overs, oh and the lady in the black lace , wasn’t she a Dish...Absolutely Marvellous...
Yes indeed Barry Norman
Thanks Barry Norman
Great classic. So many cryptic looks from so many fine actors/actresses designed to throw us off the scent as it were. Such great suspense created on such a simple set. And, Renee Godfrey, wow, was she looking good.
Excellent movie! Thank you so much for the upload.
I love these movies,,also. Have watched them since the 60's when I was a child with my Grandma on you small black and white TV. Many happy memories. : )
Greetings from Scotland. ..I too would watch these on the weekend staying at my grans house...the scarlet claw scared me to death..aaaah simpler times...wouldn't trade those memories for any sum
Very nice choice for a rainy day.
Greetings from Oregon USA 🇺🇸
