Societal conventions of different centuries be damned, the two of them walking along arm-in-arm is pretty cute. The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes (1984) "The Resident Patient".
One thing I always liked about Brett's character as Holmes was the little things, like threading his arm through his closest friend's elbow, out of trust and love for his dear friend Watson.
To those wondering about the two walking arm-in-arm, it wasn't unusal for men at that time to do this. It wasn't until the turn of the century and trials of Oscar Wilde that men stopped doing it because they became afraid that people might jump to the wrong conclusion.
They are the cutest things! Look at them walking arm inarm down the street you just don't see that sort of thing anymore. Pity to as it is so charming.
You mean sir as direct communication was back then when the society still had some sense, bro is completely ignorant slang from the jerk millennials of late lame 21st Century unfortunately
For anyone who are interested, the tune they are singing at 2:50 is the exact 3rd movement of the Beethoven Violin Concerto Holmes is talking about earlier.
Well, it's obvious, that Holmes linked arms with Watson, because he left his cane at home and therefore needed something else to compensate for his lack of balance...
English Hooligan what rot! You mean YOUR image of Watson! There is no way that David Burke was older than 40 in this! He also left at the end series 1 due to having his young child just arrive!
The best part, in my opinion, about this episode is the ending with the naming of Watson's work and Holmes' melodic violin playing, with his apparent obliviousness to the effect his playing has on Watson.. These two were the best combination together..
Obliviousness? Is that how you perceived it? I took it that Holmes preferred the title he thought of as was playing melodic as a way to show displeasure with Watson's choice. Only after Watson changed the title to Holmes choice did the violin playing become softer and lighter.
One of my favourite scenes!!! And I'm glad you continued it till they got home, I love how they walked as Sherlock is holding Watson's arm. Love this friendship
I think both work quite well, somewhat strategic. In Sherlocks younger days, Watson (also being slightly younger) Burkes version comes off as quite boyish and inquisitive. He looks up to Sherlock like an older brother, always hoping to impress him even though he doesn't need to. Hardwicke's version is more mature, a loyal companion who would do anything for him, having a certain charm and grace. I like to think Burke simply evolved into Hardwicke, going from a young, naive, curious boy - turning into the older, experienced, and very close colleague. The pupil becoming the master, so to speak.
@@cain527 While I do agree that Vitaly Solomin is a great Watson, You do have to take into account that this takes place after A Study in Scarlet, in fact, much after. Also, it's a bit unnecessary to call everyone else idiots now, is it? Lastly, what's wrong with being gay?
English Hooligan lol calm down lil homophobe , one would retort to your nothing but a scumbag of disrespectful insults of a commentary with facts and authentic critics opinions but it doesn't take a genius , like what Mr.Brett himself was , to notice the unnecessary loathe and hate that's dripping from your words , which only could be explained in this case by the high prospect of you being a close minded bigoted homophobic or simply an attention seeker.
@@Lava91point0 I genuinely didn't realise the change and was always impressed at how well the performance of Watson had evolved. It was only on a repeat examination that I realised Watson has been replaced.
@@cain527 Well, most people know Holmes and Watson were young men when they met and first began cohabitation...however, traditionally they are portrayed as older because their friendship does span 30 years and I read somewhere (I can't recall the source right now) that older actors were historically chosen by producers because then the deductive genius of the detective would be more believable as well as more masterfully played by an experienced actor. Granada was smart as to set them up from the first episode as having already lived together for a good amount of time. AND if they decided to play with the timeline when it came to the timing of the stories does it matter? ACD himself admitted quite often that he wasn't aiming for accuracy in his storytelling, he was aiming for cleverness and keeping the readers interested. I think thats all any production of the SH stories is trying to do.
@@cain527 good Lord your an angry person. By traditionally I obviously mean Hollywood and production companies. Holmes and Watson were not portrayed as homosexual in the Granada series ..they were shown as having a intimate friendship which was not sexual. That's how men who lived in the Victorian and Edwardian era treated each other if they held each other in high esteem. To bring personal sexuality into it is base and disgusting....by you and no one else. IF you knew anything about Canon you would know that they were played just as well in this series as in any other...even better. Even Conan Doyle's daughter applauded Brett's take on Sherlock after awhile. And to say lots of people are angry is an over statement of fact. If that was true than the series wouldn't be as popular and beloved as it still is today. It has also been credited as bringing noteriety and interest in ACDs work to new generations of Sherlockians. This has indeed been illustrated through correspondingly book sales. Maybe you should stop embarressing yourself with your close minded snobbish bigotry. As for knowing nothing about them I've read every story and novel at least 10 times...I have also done a lot of research besides considering I have a master's in history and I do this stuff for fun. You are being judgemental without enough data. Capital mistake.
A true Bromance, in the second most emotionally stilted history of the western world, in one of the most emotionally stilted cultures of the western world. A true marvel. Bravo, Sir Doyle. And Sherlock. and Watson.
I've always had a problem with this episode (but not this scene). To me it just seems to 'happy' for such a morbid situation. Just something about the episode just puts me off, which makes it make least favorite episode in the Brett era, apart from this scene.
One thing I always liked about Brett's character as Holmes was the little things, like threading his arm through his closest friend's elbow, out of trust and love for his dear friend Watson.
The whole thing is SO CUTE!! xD
also look how jubilant Watson gets when Holmes says "Nevertheless, there's an element of truth in what you say" !! :D
"A."
AH!!!!!! Hehehehehehheheehhehehehhehheheh.
Also, in the end, Sherlock's arm is held by Watson - very caring.
To those wondering about the two walking arm-in-arm, it wasn't unusal for men at that time to do this. It wasn't until the turn of the century and trials of Oscar Wilde that men stopped doing it because they became afraid that people might jump to the wrong conclusion.
that fact does not stop me from squealing
Yes, I believe that was pointed out on the excellent programme QI.
The Dalai Lama still does it lol.
And men are like wtf, and are afraid people will think they are banging the Dalai Lama.
It might also have to do with the fact that Jeremy Brett was very ill with cancer when he did the Granada series. He was in a lot of pain.
TheAnseup lol indeed!
They are the cutest things! Look at them walking arm inarm down the street you just don't see that sort of thing anymore. Pity to as it is so charming.
Barber: Bro, stop moving your head...
A Victorian barber would never have used "bro"

I think David Burke is so handsome with a real twinkle in his eye. The both of them do dapper. The costume team did a great job. Great acting by all.
English Hooligan HA! Your conversation really is most entertaining, if you would close the door, on your way out, as there is a decided draught.
English Hooligan what rot! You mean YOUR image of Watson! There is no way that David Burke was older than 40 in this! He also left at the end series 1 due to having his young child just arrive!
@@cain527 If admiring someone is embarrassing myself, then I’m happy to be red faced. I suggest it is you who has embarrassed themself. 🤣
Watson was so freakin' happy when he got it right. xD
Look at that radiant smile from Mr. Burke
sherlock looks so proud at Watson its his watching his son riding the bike the first time
This is indeed one of my very favourite scenes. They were so infrequent that when they did occur, it was an extra treat.
I literally can't stop smiling
Super cute. Love their playfulness and innocent intimacy in this clip. One of my favourites! thanks for posting!
Even in this series it is rare to see. So to have those little moments between them makes them all the more special.
Watsons laugh cracks me up every time XD
That was awesome! :) "There is some truth in your deduction." Lol, Holmes you just don't want Watson to be right for once!
This clip is yet another reason why youtube needs an automatic replay option.
He has brought a hair sample with him for the barber's approval. 😂 Lol
The laugh of Watson is the funniest scene.

THIS IS MY FAVORITE SCENE!!!!!! SOOO CUTE!!!!!!
My dear Watson....
One of my favourite scenes!!! And I'm glad you continued it till they got home, I love how they walked as Sherlock is holding Watson's arm. Love this friendship
such adorable best friends they are! XD arm in arm like that.
He totally made that crap up about thinking about music.
No I was deducing the same... he was playing music... I do this myself.
Tap tap tap or hum or think about some melody and harmony and whatever.
I LOVE THIS SCENE! Jeremy Brett is the best Sherlock Holmes ever.
Holmes would never need an ipod. He is one.
I enjoy each time to watch again The Resident Patient. The end is as delightful as the beginning, when Watson tries to find a title for his story...
Hahah! I was just listening to the Violin Concerto in D a few minutes ago. I love Jeremy's little eyeroll at Watson.
I always love Holmes' little smile at 2:47 and yes it is very sweet to see them arm in arm.
Thanks for sharing.
Love that ending with the music, and them going back and forth with deductions (true this time).
I THINK I LOVE THIS MAN A LITTLE BIT!!!!!!!! HI WATSON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
One of my very favorite scenes....
Holmes is hand in hand with John ! I can't ! UWU ! Oh , poor fanboy heart !
This scenes shows that David Burke is the best Watson on screen. Better by far from Edward Hardwick. You can see a team and a conection

Hardwicke was no slouch. But Burke was the superior Watson.
@@Lava91point0 I genuinely didn't realise the change and was always impressed at how well the performance of Watson had evolved. It was only on a repeat examination that I realised Watson has been replaced.
That's me when I try to remember a piano song XD
One of the reasons why I stopped playing piano 🤣
I love 2:43 - 2:49. Couldn't stop laughing!
+Brandi McWhorter LOL!
I genuinely like Sherlock of old adaptations but Watson in new adaptations.
LIsten closely - they both sing (Sherlock at first, than Watson :-D)
Sherlock is so proud!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What Watson really wants to say to Holmes: "You are such a dick."
phanpiggy I imagine that it's what he wanted to say everyday.
3:05....I giggled like an idiot when I saw that they had linked arms.
Awwww poor Watson XD
Britbox has the entire Granada serirs availible. Love to watch these all the time but try to make a point of it at Christmas.
Anyone else notice that near the end they are linking arms.... O.o
I could never understand why David Burke was replaced by Edward Hardwicke as Dr. Watson since he was much better in the part!
Burke himself decided to leave the show, to be able to spend time with his young son.
Hardwicke stepped in to replace him.
That's right. Also, Burke and Hardwicke were mates. It was Burke who suggested to Hardwicke that he should put himself forward for the part of Watson.
@@greedycapitalist8590 : That's cool but Burke was better though!

Second?
"What??"
What is that score at the end of the clip
@Oiyuki I agree *sighs*
What episode is this from anyway
The resident patient
The Resident Patient.
Holmes was also probably jonesing for the sweet caress of Lady H and a snort of Jhonny snowflake
