This was an excellent series that might be overlooked by many fans. Ronald Howard and H. Marion Crawford were an excellent and often underrated Holmes and Watson, in my opinion.
They are my favorite pair. Yes, a perfect balance. Great storylines and lots of fun. I loved this episode, especially the policeman staring into the camera, blowing his whistle.😊
I love the English weather. It seems to always be foggy, cold and in these films, it's always dark. Very film noir. Cobblestone streets make a lovely sound when the horses go over them. Very romantic. Holmes is a lucky fellow.
The famous London fog of Holmes's era was really a kind of smog; the area was very industrial at the time. Doesn't happen now due to clean air legislation :) Ordinary fog still happens of course!
The rapport between Holmes and Watson is endearing, love this partnership. Nothing like strangling a person in 4 seconds, in real life it takes at least 5 minutes. Poetic license is wonderful and this series is a delight. Doyle’s Watson was not a bumbling idiot as some series depict. He was a medical Dr. He had been overseas in war conditions. It’s lovely to see him portrayed as an intelligent, savvy man who loved and cared for his friend, had a mind of his own and used it. 👏👍
This is the second time over a period of months or years that I have viewed this particular episode of Sherlock Holmes. This continues to be an excellent series with good acting by the primary and supporting cast.

My first thought when I saw the woman talking to the killer was that he was a policeman. I had to laugh at how Watson mistook the smooching couple for the killer and victim while Holmes was just staring in amusement.
I love the realism of most of these shows - like the Granada series with Jeremy Brett, you're back in Victorian England with Holmes and Watson, taking it all in with Lastrade as it happens...
Thank you so much. Getting divorced. In a bad job. Fighting y bad thoughts and you bring this to the table. My release. Thank you. You don’t know what this means x
It's a moot point, but the superintendent reads out "Ovington COURT" whereas Holmes tell us "Ovington SQUARE". More importantly: ***SPOILER ALERT*** If you've not yet watched this do not continue ***SPOILER ALERT*** I've no idea why the director (Steve Previn, older brother of musician André) chose to film the legs and feet of the killer walking alongside his victim at the beginning - 1:33 ish - because even before we learn this is the killer, it got me thinking: 'black trousers and shoes, this is a policeman'. Instead of shooting from waist down, he should have framed only the girl, then we would have had no clues beyond the murderer's voice.
How many noticed at 9:15 when Lestrade went to see Holmes about the killings. He had nothing in his hands walking up the stairs and walked through the door with a huge map.
"Hailed as the most faithfully filmed adaptation of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's legendary characters." I wonder who did the hailing, but it was not someone who had read all of the original stories. The original Holmes is arrogant and high handed at times, intense, kind when he is reminded, but often forgetting the social niceties when he is deeply engaged in a case. He shows symptoms of what we might now diagnose as bipolar disorder, swinging between deep despondency and opium dependency to periods of manic activity when he goes without food or sleep. He has a theatrical flair and loves to surprise Watson and Lestrade with his conclusions, which are painstakingly worked out from tiny clues: observation and inference. n this series, he normally tricks or bluffs the criminal into giving away their identity. Also, no Victorian gentleman would wear a deer stalker hat in town. In the original stories, he dressed like any other respectable man of his time. The original Watson is not a bumblingly amiable buffoon, or a pompous old duffer. He is far more like the version portrayed by Edward Hardwicke: a former military man, a good doctor, loyal, intelligent, brave, but modest. Lestrade is not a pompous idiot but a decent policeman who lacks imagination, and who occasionally acknowledges Holmes' contribution. HOWEVER, this series is entertaining in its own right. I particularly like the Sergeant Wilkins character.
@Greg Hamilton, I get really weary of people that think they're the only ones who spot gaffs & bloopers, and errors in the production that seems like that's all they are watching for
Do not feel bad if people criticize u for seeing a blooper. I see them too and wonder why the professional move makers miss it. seems odd to me. I say you have a sharp eye.!
@@alicemartinez4889, you do know there supposed gaffs and bloopers are intentional by the producers and directors and script writers! They love it when their "humor" is spotted by the audience! Peace
This Ronald Howard series had great production value. We see Inspector Lestrade's boss. Horse drawn carriages are here and there. There is a beautiful full music orchestration. A lot of work went into this series all to entertain and keep the Spirit of Private Detective Sherlock Holmes** and friend/story writer Dr. John H. Watson alive. ** SH may have been loosely styled after a Scottish medical surgeon named Joseph Bell during Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's time. ... en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_Bell
Thanks so much Pizza Fix, for these classic Sherlock Holmes. I always liked seeing Ronald Howard act, Leslie Howard's son, he was a good actor like his father. You always have such great Old films , comedy, film noir , westerns , anthologies, ect. such a great variety of things ,that you provide for us to watch. From Every genre , why watch TV , weve got you Pizza Fix , and I certainly appreciate it ,Thanks again, your the best!!🌷⚘ post script, as I was reading I didn't realise, the censorship code, Hayes Code , and that it. actually started in the 30s, I thought it was later in the 50s, that it came about. Maybe I just noticed it, more then ,in comparison to different movies and time periods. 1930s- 1950s man I need to read more! lol
Thank you. I've learned something. I thought they were three brothers, Leslie, Ronald, and Arthur Howard, who often played comedic roles such as a school teacher or professor. Wasn't Leslie amazing in films like Pygmalion, Pimpernel Smith, Of Human Bondage, and with David Niven when he played the inventor of the Spitfire fighter plane. It's an old cliche, but they just don't make them like that any more!
The voice of Inspector Lestrade sounds just like "'Little John"' from the 1950's TV series, "Robin Hood". - I looked it up - and it is Little John - Archie Duncan! Just trivia.
I love the first series best, as the others would have never came without that one to compare, edit and sometimes improve on. But I am glad we have so many and the great acting back than, and I love black and white and the shadowy dark feel analogue film grain and reflections that is missing in our modern perfected digital 4k color world.
Like this version best. The movies with Rathbone are in the wrong time and Watson is not intended to be a joke. The two main actors are great though. This is better character based.
@@robertwalker5521 Doesn't beat a complete stranger coming up to my partner & I,pointing an accusing finger & saying "You're Canadian!"My partner just smiled & said "Yes,I know".As my Gramma used to say "None so queer as folk".
The killer's boots...my grandfather in Virginia wore those all his life, he was born in 1888, wore English wool suits and a wool flat cap too, English heritage.
I have watched all the Sherlock Holmes mysteries with both Rathbone and Brett. This new one is like a scifi. Moriarity keeps showing up or has sent people after Sherlock even though he's dead. Sherock is supposed to be dead too but BBC found a way to bring him back too.
Well edited episode. Holmes-Watson teaming: this Watson can goof up but is not shown as so idiotic compared to Nigel Bruce - such a buffoon that Sherlock must surely tire of him!
LOL. They only meant amateur as in he does not do it as a career. Art is the same. If you are painting for a hobby, you are an amateur, regardless of how good you are. If it is your means of making a living, you are a professional.
This series is a collection of gems! So beautifully balanced.It has the lot; humour,suspense,atmosphere,charm,and above all else quality acting!
This was an excellent series that might be overlooked by many fans. Ronald Howard and H. Marion Crawford were an excellent and often underrated Holmes and Watson, in my opinion.
I think they make the best pair. It's annoying the other Holmes act like Watson is a servant.
Jeremy Brett was so boring..how many close ups him with no expression over and over.
They are my favorite pair.
Yes, a perfect balance. Great storylines and lots of fun. I loved this episode, especially the policeman staring into the camera, blowing his whistle.😊
Personally, I liked Brett's acting style and depiction of Holmes very much, but to each her own.
I love the English weather. It seems to always be foggy, cold and in these films, it's always dark. Very film noir. Cobblestone streets make a lovely sound when the horses go over them. Very romantic. Holmes is a lucky fellow.
The famous London fog of Holmes's era was really a kind of smog; the area was very industrial at the time. Doesn't happen now due to clean air legislation :) Ordinary fog still happens of course!
I’m in my seventies. I remember coming out of work. At 5 o clock. Could no see anything. Walked home Took me three. House
Don't romanticise London fogs, known as " pea soupers". They caused a great many respiratory problems and often led to death.
These adventures were filmed in France.
Oh, I agree, I so agree! I love everything British!!!
Love Everything Sherlock Holmes. No matter who's playing his part.
I feel the same. Love all iterations
I love all the actors playing Sherlock but I must admit Basil is my favorite.
@@ritacampbell3918He is very good. My personal favorite is Jeremy Brett.
Amazing how fast time flies without commercials. Thanks for sharing.
1080p, 2K, UHD, 4K, 8K,
All that technology and TV today still can't stand up to the classics.
I'm on another Sherlock binge :)
same here
Watching during the Covic-19 lockdown with the best crime buster in the world and his sidekick whom I tend to prefer more on screen than in books!
Winter is coming, these are the best to cosy up and watch. Timeless!

How would you know how long it takes, hmmm?

This is such a treat. Love the humor. Reminds me of the ABC Murders by Dame Christie
I love love this series. I so enjoy black and white movies and TV.
Me too. Love it.
Me too. Love it!
BRILLIANT BRITISH CLASSIC!!!! SUPERB ACTING AND DIRECTING + WONDERFUL OLD CHARM.
I really enjoy this series , wish they’d made more of them .
Monsieur J’ai suis d’accord avec vous, always very good 👍 and very friendly, and without any foul language whatsoever 😊

Thank you for this list.
Thanks!
Hi Rebecca🍕THANK YOU🍕
I really appreciate this Sherlock (Ronald Howard) and this Dr. Watson (H. Marion Crawford). In my opinion, it has more subtleties than any others.
My favorites!
Sgt Wilkins is the best office asst. to Inspector lestrade.
Yes, and Lestrade underestimates him.
I love these "Elementary My Dear Watson" old classics, bravo.
Trivia: That phrase does not appear in any of Doyle's writings.
I do love them, too. So engrossing!
I think this episode is one of the best of the lot.
My first thought when I saw the woman talking to the killer was that he was a policeman.
I had to laugh at how Watson mistook the smooching couple for the killer and victim while Holmes was just staring in amusement.
I love the realism of most of these shows - like the Granada series with Jeremy Brett, you're back in Victorian England with Holmes and Watson, taking it all in with Lastrade as it happens...
I so agree: the clip-clop of hooves on cobblestones, the fog, the costumes....
Didn't make enough episodes. I went through all of them in only a couple of days. Ronald Howard, too me, had the look of Holmes, more than any other.
nobody Uknow..... I agree. He definitely has the look and has the more humorous part of Holmes’ personality. 😁👍
Once again I say these Blokes put on a fine show.

Instead of shooting from waist down, he should have framed only the girl, then we would have had no clues beyond the murderer's voice.
Steve Previn is the older brother of Andre Previn? That is interesting!
Well, it's giving a clue to the audience so we can solve the case and feel clever :)
Love these old shows. Corny as heck and very predictable, but love them.

"Hailed as the most faithfully filmed adaptation of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's legendary characters." I wonder who did the hailing, but it was not someone who had read all of the original stories. The original Holmes is arrogant and high handed at times, intense, kind when he is reminded, but often forgetting the social niceties when he is deeply engaged in a case.

Lestrade is not a pompous idiot but a decent policeman who lacks imagination, and who occasionally acknowledges Holmes' contribution. HOWEVER, this series is entertaining in its own right. I particularly like the Sergeant Wilkins character.
I feel that Jeremy B. portrays Holmes best. Just my thought.
@@kendalls.358 I absolutely agree.
Jeremy is The consummate Holmes 😊
Thanks for your thoughts! I haven't read the books, so it was interesting to hear how Holmes and Watson were originally written.

Continuity Oops! When Lestrade first enters 221B he has no city map in his hand, but when enters their flat....he does.
@Greg Hamilton, I get really weary of people that think they're the only ones who spot gaffs & bloopers, and errors in the production that seems like that's all they are watching for
Greg Hamilton No the one Lestrade carried was pipe folded, pocketed one would have been handkerchief folded.

Maybe I just noticed it, more then ,in comparison to different movies and time periods. 1930s- 1950s man I need to read more! lol
Thanks for the support and keep watching! May the sauce be with you.
@@PizzaFLIX Thanks Pizza Fix, I will.
Thank you. I've learned something. I thought they were three brothers, Leslie, Ronald, and Arthur Howard, who often played comedic roles such as a school teacher or professor. Wasn't Leslie amazing in films like Pygmalion, Pimpernel Smith, Of Human Bondage, and with David Niven when he played the inventor of the Spitfire fighter plane. It's an old cliche, but they just don't make them like that any more!
I have the whole series on DVD. Just love this version of Holmes.
@@talladale ...tough to watch "Bondage"...club foot, rejected the perfect woman, a dead Betty Davis.....eeeesh!!
You didnt mention raining.
After all, they're called the British Isles...
I, too, love these old Sherlock Holmes black and whites films.
Wahaooo.....thought we lost you....happy you're back!!
Thank you 🤗
Bumbling is the key word to why I like the series with Jeremy Brett and Edward Hardwicke best. Hardwicke's Watson doesn't play the fool.
Brett=🤮
The voice of Inspector Lestrade sounds just like "'Little John"' from the 1950's TV series, "Robin Hood". - I looked it up - and it is Little John - Archie Duncan! Just trivia.
justdeepblue it is !!! Duncan Archer
Friar Tuck is in the Red Headed League!
Everyone knew it was "Little John", it was you that was the last one to know.
Thanks for the information.
Archie Duncan is never trivial.
Wilkins is the coolest.
How odd you should say that! I made a comment _right now_ that Wilkins is not as stupid as he's made out to be.
He's the unsung hero of the whole series!😁🍻 He pays attention to Holmes's methods and applies them.👮♂️
I love the first series best, as the others would have never came without that one to compare, edit and sometimes improve on.
But I am glad we have so many and the great acting back than, and I love black and white and the shadowy dark feel analogue film grain and reflections that is missing in our modern perfected digital 4k color world.
👍👍👍💕 thank you‼️
Two seconds to determine it is a cop or one dressed as a cop.
Failed cop.
The British sure love their tea!
Better than burgers
@@gerrypippin2263It seems the Brits always put fried eggs on their burgers. Not that I'm complaining. YUM! 🍳🍔
A quick half hour fix thanks for posting it.
Thanks . Excellent
Still nothing better than an old movie to take you away from the world today 👍👍👍👍
I love Lestrade in this charming series
Holmes: Now, as for the woman, hmm... [goes over to Watson]
Watson: No. 🤣
This was a good one
" Come, Watson! The game's afoot!"
Wilkins is the best. Just love Lestrade uses all Wilkins facts as his own.
Finally!! At 12:06 Holmes mentions that the thistle is the official flower of SCOTLAND
The superintendent almost got Lestrade into drag and Holmes tried to get Watson into drag!😂😂😂 👗 💃🏻
Thank you!🌸
How cool is it, watching a mistery on a stormy 🌃
very good, well-written episode
wilkins is my favorite character in the series
Love it. Great show
I figured it out right away what fun, thank you Pizza Flix.
I get so engrossed in these episodes while I'm knitting that I lose count and have redo whole sections, I wouldn't have it any other way.
I love these shows. The only thing missing is Mrs. Hudson!👵🏼☕️🫖🍽️🍞🧈🥚🍅🥩🥓🧀🍐🌬️☔️🌧️🪻🍀🎻
I do love Sherlock Holmes with Ronald Harlord.
Only wonder, why did people walk in the park at foggy night? Was it the custom that days?
Like this version best. The movies with Rathbone are in the wrong time and Watson is not intended to be a joke. The two main actors are great though. This is better character based.
I wish they would have given the policewoman a line or two. (police matron they called her). Felt odd not to hear a peep out of her.
From the time Lestrade walked up the stairs to Holmes apartment to the time he entered, he somehow managed to acquire a large map. Hm....curious.
13:25 13:41 "ever done any amateur theatricals lestrade?" _wheeze_
What the...?! Where'd Lestrade get that map?! He didn't have it when he came up the stairs! There's the biggest mystery of this episode!
If it was raining it may have been tucked under his coat.
@@suecollins3246 Well, it _IS_ London, so the odds of it having been raining are pretty good, I suppose.
10:00...And suddenly, a map of London appeared in Lestrade's hand...
Sherlock Holmes helps Scotland Yard to track down a killer who has been leaving three thistles next to each of the women he has murdered
Why are you telling us that? We know!
Are you at the North Pole?
@@robertwalker5521 Doesn't beat a complete stranger coming up to my partner & I,pointing an accusing finger & saying "You're Canadian!"My partner just smiled & said "Yes,I know".As my Gramma used to say "None so queer as folk".
Short and nice.
❤😘 thank you that was great..
That’s GOOD watchin!!! 👍👍👍
I am so happy for these restorations and tha they were NOT "colorised"! Bob
genius sherlock,, like it so much ,, well done ,,
These blokes put on a fine show.
The killer's boots...my grandfather in Virginia wore those all his life, he was born in 1888, wore English wool suits and a wool flat cap too, English heritage.
Cute
I have watched all the Sherlock Holmes mysteries with both Rathbone and Brett. This new one is like a scifi. Moriarity keeps showing up or has sent people after Sherlock even though he's dead. Sherock is supposed to be dead too but BBC found a way to bring him back too.
Well edited episode. Holmes-Watson teaming: this Watson can goof up but is not shown as so idiotic compared to Nigel Bruce - such a buffoon that Sherlock must surely tire of him!
Love how Sherlock Holmes solve crimes....
AND HE IS NOT AMATEUR!!!!!!
LOL. They only meant amateur as in he does not do it as a career. Art is the same. If you are painting for a hobby, you are an amateur, regardless of how good you are. If it is your means of making a living, you are a professional.
@@cathyroberts1148 He knows what it meant, calm yourself! Really? LOL
Keep up the great work PizzaLa’Hutt.🤔🤣🤣.
This story is reflecting reality just now.
Did anyone else notice the inspector entered Holmes building empty handed, then entered Holmes apt with a large rolled up map? Lol
I like this Watson. He seems to be intelligent at least that one with Basil Rathbone just makes me want to scream
Couldn't agree more. Nigel Bruce plays a buffoon, so unfortunate.
I wonder if anyone ever thought Jack the Ripper could have been a copper
Oh, I'd say... EVERYBODY...
He was a Cop for sure. He played right under their noses Everytime he killed. He would've been a good cop if he was not a killer ofcourse.
Jack the Ripper was a very skilled butcher. Which meant he probably either _was_ a butcher or a surgeon.
He was an extended member of the Royal Family. That's why it was kept hush-hush.🙀
Almost Unheard of when this program was made A policeman killer So sad today it’s a every day occurrence 😢😢
thanks tons
Why was the superintendant's voice dubbed? Was the actor not British?
I wondered the same thing!
He was French
why is my screen quality so bad ? everyone always says it is great quality for these series.. is it my old ipad at fault ?
Excellent
I remember when TV shows were in black and white and we listened to radio program. Where we lived at we didn't get to much reception
I remember when growing up in the 50s and 60s there was a lot of shows still on radio.
