What a delightful series! I would not have known about this show if not for you, PizzaFlix. Thank you very much for teaching while also entertaining us.
You prolly dont give a shit but if you guys are bored like me atm you can stream all the latest movies on instaflixxer. Have been watching with my gf for the last few months :)
I visited 221b Baker Street when I was in London (it is now the Sherlock Holmes Museum) and it was absolutely fascinating -- really whisked me back in time. Can highly recommend it.
May I please ask while you were there was it said why Sir Arthur Doyle chose 221B Baker Street as his infamous 's characters home? I'm just curious that's all. Like did Sir Arthur Doyle know someone who lived there or something like that? :)
@@desireejohnston1258 There is no such place as 221b Baker Street. It was just an address that Conan Doyle thought up for his books, The Sherlock Holmes Museum is actually situated at 239 Baker Street --- all very confusing I know.
@@hammadoolass ah ok thanks for that. It's funny you know like some of us have thought in my late childhood/teens I too thought that Sherlock Holmes did exist but he himself didnt, he may have been based on an historic individual. And up until now thought that 221B itself existed but actually doesn't. Thanks for the info :)
@@billh.8515 He was my favourite Sherlock Holmes, followed by Basil Rathbone. I watched this series before Basil Rathbone's, and, I have to admit, I was totally charmed by Ronald Howard's portrayal; basil Rathbone kind of unnerved me the first time I saw him in the role, but I also came to appreciate his intensity, and the way he pulled it off. Ronald Howard and Basil Rathbone are my favourites, followed by Peter Cushing.
@@billh.8515 I thought Jeremy Brett too dandyish and overdramatic. Try watching the 1959 version of The Hound of the Baskervilles where Peter Cushing is Sherlock Holmes and Christopher Lee is Sir Henry Baskerville; that was Peter Cushing's first time as Sherlock Holmes, and he played his own tune to the said role.
@@billh.8515 No problem. There were a few changes made, but it's still good; I don't have to point out that this is also the first time Christopher Lee played a nice guy ever since became famous.
For 1954, I think this was ahead of its time. Not just the scripts and the fine acting, but the lighting, sets and audio was way above average. The Holmes and Watson characters are vastly different than the beloved Rathbone and Bruce, but Howard and Crawford are more truthfully more convincing. Moreover, Lestrad and his faithful sidekick are perfect.
Oddly, i found Basil to have often have a smile or twinkle in his eyes. Serious, yes, but also more human than many credit him. I love his Sherlock. And I delighted in Nigel Bruce’s Watson. And I still love Ronald Howard and H. Marion Crawford’s portrayals too. SOOO many actors have graced us with their interpretations. It is fun to see they each do. :)

@@jeanneratterman4174 But Nigel Bruce played like a fool ,much to the funnier side.Crawford plays good.Watson was never meant to be a fool.The best is obviously David Burke
I agree, but Baker Street in the 1890s was just as broad as it is today (pretty broad), and hadn't been cobbled for the better part of a century. Still, I too enjoy watching horses on cobbles, and it's easy to forgive the producers for their anachronisms.
Not so my friend. My deductive resoning was learned by watching these movies as a young lad. Im very good at it. It has kept out of more trouble, An paid back many.
This episode is so dear to me because Ronald Howard looks like my Grandpa Lyle. and Grandpa was a tailor. He also mentioned the buttoning that women do to the one side and men to the other. This episode just perfect for that.
I too am addicted to these episodes. Thanks, Pizzafix! Did anyone else notice that the section of film where H&W arrive at Scotland Yard is always the same, with them alighting from the carriage and the same lady always crossing the street?
that's common in a lot of series.. they show the. same street scenes and people, there is a turkish series called Ertugrul, and you see the same passers by, stock footage...
I actually never knew this series existed. A entertaining adaptation of S.A.C.D. writings. The masses who viewed this at the time must have been entertained. Perhaps a time of relaxtion watching "Television" in its infancy and growth . Husband and wife and family sitting together. I was'nt there, seems that way.
Actually, it was more like a small boy watching his father enjoying violent TV programming. Saying "You know that's fake" as his father was sitting there watching "All Star Wrestling"...drinking beer and eating popcorn. And then spanking his son for interrupting his TV programming. And decades later, parents purchasing violent video games for their kids.
Our County LIbrary has the series, it's wonderful to check it out and watch it a Sherlock Holmes marathon weekend! We even have a Sherlock Homes series book. So if the end of the 19th century pops around again, aka power go out, we can have a good read.
@@phildouglas9086 what's the point to your comment? Aside from sounding like a kid that needs an ass whooping for interrupting the adults. I bet you didn't like dodgeball in school either. Aww poor little guy.
@@ShawnO3258 The negative impact TV/violent video programming has had on social behavior is undeniable. Whereas dodgeball is just a game kids play, so I don't get your point. Not that you were trying to make a point in the first place. I suspect you were just looking for someone to pick on again. Pick away.
Phil Douglas Mr. Douglas, I agree that violence-as-entertainment is bad for people’s minds. My parents used only as much spanking as was expected of their generation, but I had enough lingering resentment of it that I decided not to “parent” that way. I only spanked our sons when they did something dangerous. The spankings were so rare that the boys learned quickly not to run out into the street. (We were fortunate enough to have bought our home, so we also built a solid, 6-foot tall fence around it to keep them safe). There’s a time and a place for “adventure & fighting” TV and video games, in limited amounts. I recommend waiting at least until children are old enough to truly understand that what is happening on TV is fiction, and still using common sense after that. Teenagers can usually safely enjoy a movie like, say, “Inglorious Basterds” or “Die Hard,” but 4 and 5 year old children should be protected from such programming. We found that the occasional violent TV programs that they saw at friends’ houses weren’t a problem, probably because their total exposure to such programming was infrequent.
Thank you again. I think I like this type of black and white shows because I saw them when I was a kid. I also like watching the black and white Perry Mason and Father Brown. I also like them because the stories are short. I won't sit long unless I'm at the movie theater or working on my computer.
All the trouble women cause! Interestingly the previous one of these I watched had only 1 comment. I see this one so far has garnered 149. These really are so much fun.
I couldn't look at 'Auntie Lottie' / Doogle - without thinking of Kenneth Williams, lol, wondering who mimicked who? KW was in Bernard Shaw's "St Joan" as the Dauphin in 1954 so maybe the attitude and affectation was 'of its time' ? The only weak point was that no one in the front office came into AL's office to stop the attack, and it's doubtful if there would have been a sign on his door anyway. A fun caper nonetheless!
I didn’t think I’d like this but 5 mins in I was laughing and this was so adorable. I knew that stupid maid was in on this with her stupid comment about she should marry him.
PizzaFlix you bet...: I know you guys hear it a lot about TV being so terrible but it’s true. Thanks for making our lives a little easier with good television!
I know what you mean. I started this episode by thinking it was going to be dark and serious, given the title, but I found myself laughing my lungs out the moment Holmes removed Watson's earplugs, and I saw both their expressions when the client started on his story. Quite refreshing, without straying from how serious the situation was. I first watched this series when I was a child, and I was totally charmed by Ronald Howard. This series is one of the best memories I have since I used to watch it with my mother.
I prefer this Inspector Lestrade to the one in the Basil Rathbone series; he might be a bit dimwitted ( as Holmes put it ), but he was still likeable, unlike the one in the Basil Rathbone version that made me want to kick him in the butt.
On one the comment threads on one of the shows, someone made the claim that Ron Howard of ‘SPLASH’ and so many films is related to this Ronald Howard, but I can find no evidence whatsoever of a connection. Anyone have the information that connects them? Just curious. Thanks!
Spoiler alert: How do you button up a man's coat on the left side? The buttons and buttonholes are fixed in place and only button up one way. This is in re: the father's murder as explained by Holmes.
Sheldon Reynolds wrote in many parts of Cannon into the scripts, but this is far from faithful. And completely great! Parts of Reynolds scripts have shown up in other adaptations.
This episode is extremely funny. Holmes fires two shots and he, Dr. Watson and Insp. Lestrade took off running.😅 Then Lestrade gets himself entangled in a badminton net.😅
Anyone notice how often they recycled both actors, and sets? I know why, at least for London, as to why they had to recycle sets; because, after WWII, so much of London was ruined by bombing, and fire.
Nigel Bruce was rather feeble minded, could not be relied upon to know when to keep his mouth shut and would fall asleep every time he sat for long even when he was supposed to be guarding someone! 😖👎👎
Why was the writer so eager to tell the man who he was... why didn’t he get proof and go tell the woman in confidence. No one ever fared well when they tell the criminal who they are! That’s a death sentence.
It's amazing how simple-minded these early TV shows were. First, Murdoch makes all his threats and attacks in an office where there were a dozen people just outside the door, and Dugal never makes a move for help. Then, Murdoch says he won't let Dugal out of his sight until the wedding, but Dugal manages to get to Holmes. Finally, Murdoch has made a threat on Dugal's life and it never occurs to the latter to go to the police and report the whole thing and get Murdoch picked up.
If Dugal went to the police, he would risk the story of Murdoch assaulting him being picked up by the police reporter for a rival newspaper and exposing "Aunt Lottie" as a fraud. Telling one person in private in your office is one thing; being exposed to ridicule by a rival paper is another, and might cost Dugal his job. As for Murdoch's threat, even in real life threats and reality are often if not usually two different things.
Delightful. I laughed all the way through. The coat clue, however, doesn't really hold water. The coat could not have been buttoned any way but how it was made to button. It isn't a woman buttoning it on the wrong side simply because she's used to buttoning it that way on herself. You can't just pretend that buttonholes are suddenly on the other side of the coat... So unless the housekeeper stupidly tried to put a jacket, fitted to go over a woman's corsetted figure, onto a man, there would be no way for her to button it on the opposite side. And a woman's jacket simply would never have fit the man. FAR too fitted. And wouldn't the housekeeper have known which was the master's jacket, and which was the mistresses jacket? Nevertheless, delightfully campy episode.
What a delightful series! I would not have known about this show if not for you, PizzaFlix. Thank you very much for teaching while also entertaining us.

The most beautiful and bizarre episode in this vintage series! Thanks for making it available to the self isolated.

Are you still alive from the corona vax?
Holmes and Watson laughing like little boys after Lestrade got caught in that net, and in the carriage is so refreshing and heartwarming to watch.

Every Holmes is different. Rathbone is deadly serious. Brett is half insane. And Howard plays him like a boy in an amusement park. lol
Jeremy Brett did an excellent job of embodying the Holmes character! I like them all though.
I have felt that Peter Cushing has played the role with exceptional grace and flair. Truly admirable and respectable. 👌🏽

It's amazing how simple-minded these early TV shows were. First, Murdoch makes all his threats and attacks in an office where there were a dozen people just outside the door, and Dugal never makes a move for help. Then, Murdoch says he won't let Dugal out of his sight until the wedding, but Dugal manages to get to Holmes. Finally, Murdoch has made a threat on Dugal's life and it never occurs to the latter to go to the police and report the whole thing and get Murdoch picked up.
oops got the explanation. but it's weak.
If Dugal went to the police, he would risk the story of Murdoch assaulting him being picked up by the police reporter for a rival newspaper and exposing "Aunt Lottie" as a fraud. Telling one person in private in your office is one thing; being exposed to ridicule by a rival paper is another, and might cost Dugal his job. As for Murdoch's threat, even in real life threats and reality are often if not usually two different things.
Delightful. I laughed all the way through.
The coat clue, however, doesn't really hold water. The coat could not have been buttoned any way but how it was made to button. It isn't a woman buttoning it on the wrong side simply because she's used to buttoning it that way on herself. You can't just pretend that buttonholes are suddenly on the other side of the coat... So unless the housekeeper stupidly tried to put a jacket, fitted to go over a woman's corsetted figure, onto a man, there would be no way for her to button it on the opposite side. And a woman's jacket simply would never have fit the man. FAR too fitted. And wouldn't the housekeeper have known which was the master's jacket, and which was the mistresses jacket?
Nevertheless, delightfully campy episode.
