I truly enjoy watching Jeremy Brett as Sherlock Holmes and David Burke as Dr. Watson. Not only for the incredible acting and mystery that they solve. It is for the cinematography, the architecture and the period fashion of the era, as well. Thank you for posting. Happy New Year 2020.
I am so glad I found this channel. I would much rather watch Jeremy Brett and Sherlock Holmes films than the relentless torture-driven violence of today's so-called mystery films. Thank you to the HardBoiledDetective.
Watson loves the action and mystery that having Holmes as a friend and flatmate brings. The good much outweighs the bad. He can put up with his dark moods and rude comments to tag along on his adventures. Watson is actually pretty brave and comes in handy in a lot of these adventures. My favorite moments in this series are definitely when Holmes is in a good mood. Like when he and Watson have lunch and go to see that violinist in the Red Headed League.
I adore Jeremy Brett. A truly brilliant portrayal of Holmes. David Burke was the best Watson, and Edward Hardwicke who replaced in from Series 3 was not too bad. Out of the three, only David Burke is alive now in January 2020.
Aya ppl , my dad read all the Sherlock Holmes books, he liked Basil ,Rathbone when he was younger. His generation 😁, however when he saw the ITV adaptation with Jeremy Brett he said it was the best he had seen, Brett was the nearest Holmes to the books. I became so convinced I read read a few of the books. My dad was absolutely right 😊
Watched these all my life, still watching them.........i pay for netflix. hulu, amazon prime and cable and yet the best i could find tonight is here for free and as always...........Sherlock Holmes
Jeremy Brett was the ultimate Sherlock Holmes. His heart was enlarged from Rheumatic fever and he took lithium for bi-polar disorder and smoked 60 a day! He recorded 41 episodes, towards the end in failing health. He died aged 61 soon after. We are in his debt.
@@phildouglas9086 Brett wasn't born to please you where his sexuality may have been. You enjoyed him in his role as Sherlock ? Then that's all that matters, nothing else! Damn the stupidity, 2019 and still the bs?
@@joycebrown1413 yes you are right . recently I was reading the book More than an actor : the story of Peter H & I am very impressed. I am from India . I am reading A C D from my school days & J B is my Sherlock Holmes.
Agreed. She really did a terrific job in this episode. You can see how Mr. Rucastle makes her skin crawl but she can't really express it to Holmes and Watson due to the politeness and overly proper manners of the time.
2:45; When you're engrossed in the obituaries inventing how it could have been murder and your idiot roommate begins to chuckle like an idiot and ruin it for you.
Oh Holmes, you'd just love it if another Moriarty rose up, hurt numerous people, and tried to take your life. God forbid you get bored by all the petty extortion rackets... :-3 ... oh my dear Holmes, how needy you are! lol I love the utter creepiness of Mr. Rucastle! He totally gives off the 'killer' vibes!
The copy of this edition seems to be from the original film. There is a modern, cleaned up version of these adaptations, taken from the original film and modified into a clearer picture quality.
@@kathleencampbell2298 Moaning? Really? Is that the best trolling you can do? I was just stating a fact. I don't care which version I see. I adore Brett. Catch yourself on!
Holmes comment Crime is common Lodgic is rare . Even in those times some knew . There is nothing common about sense. You even have Lodjic and danceable ways or you don't. The Author knew it. And has been gone from this life for decades. Very intelagent and much wisdom. You don't have to go to College or University to be Wise. Never over or underestimate anyone because they do or do not have a Diploma on the wall....
I never liked this story itself much. The Man of the house is oh soooo creepy. I suppose that is good acting. Jeremy and David are good here but R...castle is so creepy I cannot watch.
If you you think it was just fall back on the quality acting, something television of today has lost forever, especially the horrible BBC Mrs Hudson would be a one legged lesbian if it was left to them.
One of the very best of an outstanding series.
Enjoyable series. Thank you.
The greatest Holmes series of 'em all.

I just found this channel and I agree 100%!
Agreed 🙂
Dr. Watson is never without "tired of your shit, Holmes, but I love you so I'm staying" moments. Lol. I love him. Love their friendship.

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle wrote Sherlock Holmes just for Jeremy Brett to play. Never has a actor played a role so brilliantly. RIP MR. BRETT!!!!

He was only 54 when he died.
We certainly will forever be in his debt

The lovely Natasha Richardson. Gone too soon. RIP.

Sherlock Holmes throws a tantrum because the cases he's getting are not up to his expected standard :-D
"It is upon logic rather than crime that you should dwell." Sherlock Holmes
I love it remarkable acting all around.
Best Holmes ever
I do enjoy the new Sherlock Holmes,they have paired them up well.but no one can best Brett .

This was an acting recital by Brett. My goodness that is acting.
doctorwho0077 bullshit
Basil Rathbone still looks great for his age. Kudos Mr. Rathbone. Keep on keepin' on!

What?

hmmm... moriarty yesss
He gives off old pervert vibes. He's loathsome.
Brett is Sherlock Holmes but my love of Sherlock is Basil Rathbone.

Well you watch them! Moaner 🙄

😂😂😂😂
The shifting of those lines at the top of each frame suggests a video tape source.
J Brett makes Basil Rathbone look a bit corny and wooden.Mind you i have watched all the Rathbone films ..They have their place in history.
True , but Brett is great

I have this story in my English book
Well
The color in this series so washed out. Is that an affect of the age or the camera that filmed them?
It's the copy, of a copy of a copy!
Moaning 🙄😒
Try doing it yourself 😉
Poor sound.
Well, just fix it babe! Nobody else even mentioned it, dig? Peace
I like the show but this one eac . The story line is Abit weak .
If you you think it was just fall back on the quality acting, something television of today has lost forever, especially the horrible BBC Mrs Hudson would be a one legged lesbian if it was left to them.
