I used to enjoy watching these on TV late at night until they stopped showing them. I'm not keen on the modern stuff so it's great to discover this channel
John Neville is probably THE most underrated actor in history!He was brilliant as Holmes and as Baron Von Munchausen,why wasn't he in more???🤷♀️ Madness!👍🇬🇧❤️❤️❤️🐊🐊🐊
Definitely one to watch on a cold winter night in a snug and cosy living room if you can afford to put the heating on in cash strapped Britain right now?
The magnificent Barbara Windsor , The brilliant Avis Bunnage And Georgia Brown, quite fantastic how these movies had an all-star cast the likes of what we’ll never see again
One of the better Sherlock Holmes movies. The cast is a roll call of the UK acting talent of the period, but my favourite cameo is by Terry Downes, the great middleweight boxer (as Chunky the butcher).
The way they spoke back then and the way they addressed each other so respectful. Today my lady speaks to me like I'm her dog not her partner. Thankyou for the upload
Great to see the cross over between the ripper and Holmes stories. Maybe Guy Ritchie could remake with Downey Jr / Law. I've always liked Judy Dench, great to see her in this.
At the last scene of the story, when Sherlock is examining the bowler, Dr. Watson rolls his eyes like saying, "Brilliant! There he goes again. How the hell does he knows all those things about a man he hasn't even met yet!!!"
"Though not in yourself luminous, you're an excellent conductor of light." Probably the best line I've ever heard uttered on screen. It is worth noting that there are a couple of fist fights in this excellent film and Holmes is a bit tasty in a scrap.
Tasty in a scrap, is right. Conan-Doyle wrote that Sherlock Holmes was an expert in "Bartitsu". This was a real-life mixed martial art that was developed by Edward Barton-Wright in the late 1880s. It combined, boxing, ju-jitsu, stick fighting and kick fighting. The Bartitsu society even used to give women's self defence classes and organize MMA tournaments.
When this film was made in 1965, several of the scenes of the real 1888 murders still existed with the original buildings still standing, but within the next 10 years, they had been demolished. It's a shame that the real sites weren't used.
I hate the way so many councils etc,pull down historic buildings or even move some to a new location.Its seldom for the best.And as for modern houses..!I had a workman once who said he'd seen better & longer lasting structures in Lego build.Where I live now,used to be a v historical market town.Until Councillor Blank(!)& his merry men got hold of it.They destroyed so much of the old buildings & the horrible little man actually said,in print,he would've pulled down every old building in the town.We had an archaeological open day when another ugly building was being done.The older,local people were still bitter about The Destroyer & this all happened back in the 60s.Now of course,the council bitterly regret it.He's dead & buried,he's probably lucky he wasn't lynched!
No no no...... this one disguise is an exceptionally good one!!!!! And I've seen every one of them.And I'm especially interested in theatrical maquillage....
I love this version. John Neville ( X-Files ) as Holmes is excellent, as is Donald Houston ( Where eagles dare, Carry On Jack & The longest day ). It is right up there with MURDER BY DECREE!
@Floyd1504 I like them both; they both have good and bad qualities. The fact that this one utilizes Sherlock Holmes, makes it really enjoyable. I always get frustrated with Jack the Ripper, when the acting goes over the top wacko, like when Cain interrogates the doctor (after murderer revealed) and they both star yelling and getting over the top dramatic...makes me cringe..lol. But I like them both a lot.
Houston plays him as a smart,practical man of action,as in the stories.I have great affection for Nigel Bruce but he did untold damage to the concept of Watson for years!
saw this several times on TV when I was a kid, it terrified me then, but somehow Im only now shocked at the violence!? Knife through the neck in less than the first min? Like how the hell did they get away with that..? Great movie and the films deep colours look great. This was still when the UK made some great films. 👍
Love the cross over between the ripper and Holmes stories. Maybe Guy Ritchie could remake with Downey Jr / Law. I've always liked Judy Dench, great to see her in this.
"Ta rah rah boom tee A, ta rah rah boom tee A", how I love that song! I've only heard it in a Disney rendition, was it from the "America Sings" ride at Disneyland that's no longer there? Serious memory trip for me right now! Decent film so far, good costumes & visual quality is great.
Having watched this I feel COMPELLED to write a story where Inspector G. Lestrade is a Columbo type character. Only consults with Holmes when stymied but ultimately solves the case.
I've read a lot of Sherlock Holmes in the last fifteen years of my life, but I have no recollection of Sir Connan Doyle writing one of his famous detective's cases lightly based on the Jack the Ripper murders in Whiteshapel, unless this is merely a screenplay doing a face-off on the two Victorian most popular characters. Very interesting, since I thought I was the only one who has tried to put Sherlock and Jack in a same story (in a screenplay, later on on a novel), as formidable opononents indeed!
Yup, me too - Tra.......la........la Boomdeay! That brings back memories of waltzing my baby son around the room to make him laugh. Long time ago. Fine film.
Frank Finlay played Inspector Lestrade in another movie about Sherlock Holmes investigating the Jack the Ripper case. It is from 1979 and is called Murder By Decree. Anthony Quayle is in that one as well although he plays a different character that of Sir Charles Warren.
@@viviennepopek Frank Finlay is also in Neither The Sea Nor The Sand which used to be on the Flick Vault channel but was removed for some reason probably copyright.
@@stainrid Thank you! He was in a TV series called "Bouquet of Barbed Wire" which was made around the 1970s-80s. That's when i first saw him and I've always remembered him from that series.
Robert Morley was a wonderful actor, and by all accounts a fascinating, charismatic and larger than life man more fascinating than any of the characters he played. He wrote some wonderful memoirs.
Your channel has put such wonderful and very hard to find movies of the 60's , 70's and 80's. Any chance you can upload the movies from "Carry On...." series?
An interesting, and indeed very entertaining twist on both the Holmes-n-Watson 'personas', and on the speculative resolution of the still unsolved Jack The Ripper / Whitechapel murders. The combining of Holmes with the Whitechapel case was unique, though the quality of acting AND editing definitely 'drew you in' to The Plot and Unfolding Evidence, where as always with Sherlock, your devout attention is absolutely duly required once "The Game Is Afoot"...!!! THX Flick Vault = Another Goodie.
Not unique, but it is probably the first film to pit Holmes and Watson against the Ripper, although there's a quite a few subsequent films (and books) that do the same schtick.
@@silkychan6099 no, where did you hear this? Patricia Cornwell spent a couple of million dollars of her own money trying to convince people that the artist Walter Sickert was the killer. it transpires that Sickert was in France when at least one of the murders was perpetrated. then they DNA tested part of the shawl from 4th murder victim Catherine Eddowes, but that turned out to be inconclusive. to date, there have been over 200 suspects, with more emerging each year. the current red hot favourite is Charles Cross - Lechmere-, who came across the body of the 1st victim Polly Nichols, whilst he was walking to work. several of the Ripperologists & some of the top policeman from 1888, believe the killer to be Aaron Kosminski, who was a polish Jew & was eventually committed to a mental institution for the rest of his life. the truth is nobody really knows fof sure. lots of the original police files have either been lost or destroyed over the years, so it still remains a mystery
At 45 minutes when they get jumped the music that was being used had me laughing out loud. It sounded like circus music. I think I'll watch that bit again.
One of the best - possibly the best - Jack the Ripper movie with marvellous performances from John Neville and Donald Houston as Holmes and Watson; a scene stealing cameo from Robert Morley as Mycroft plus an amazing support cast including Judi Dench, Adrienne Corri, Anthony Quayle and Frank Finlay. Made on a tight budget, yet with good sets and costumes, and with its creepy theme tune, the film manages to blend scares and thrills and some genuine pathos for the Whitechapel unfortunates. At the very worst it is eminently watchable.
John Neville and Donald Houston made a good Sherlock Holmes movie, different than Basil Rathbone and Nigel Bruce team who are hard to beat. Nevertheless this is very good movie. Robert Morley's first class performance of Sherlock Holmes big brother was the best.
30= The young Judi Dench was so pretty and the late Barbara Winsor as a good time gal . What a very enjoyable movie and a excellent cast, Frank Finley and even Peter Ustanov as copper.
It's amazing how she pretty much looked the same her whole life! She was pretty and girly to the end. I was lucky enough to meet her a few times, working in TV. She was a 'girls girl', always so warm and kind. I adored her, she was very much a star, but also cared very much that ordinary folk liked her. That humility in a celebrity is a lovely quality. God bless her.
Conan Doyle wrote a short piece for a club publication, perhaps the Baker Street Dozen or something like that, wherein "Elementary" was used, but not "my Dear Watson" I believe, but perhaps just "Watson". Not certain of the latter. Read it years ago in Dad's library. It wasn't in the two volume collection he had.
i fed the homeless each week in London years ago, they were still making them sing Catholic hymns to receive the stew. I think they packed that in eventually.
Thanks for this flick! Never seen this one, the visual and the bar songs were a nice change lol. The ladies of the eve. were very well dressed and healthy. In reality I remember they had awful teeth, lung and kidney diseased, hungry and thin. Some were old and dirty. Here you had a beauty pagent lol. That's what made this one different so I watched it :)

You might want to try murder by decree starring the late Christopher Plummer as Sherlock Holmes and once more doing battle with the ripper.
At the last scene of the story, when Sherlock is examining the bowler, Dr. Watson rolls his eyes like saying, "Brilliant! There he goes again. How the hell does he knows all those things about a man he hasn't even met yet!!!"
"Though not in yourself luminous, you're an excellent conductor of light." Probably the best line I've ever heard uttered on screen. It is worth noting that there are a couple of fist fights in this excellent film and Holmes is a bit tasty in a scrap.
that line is originally from The Hound of the Baskervilles novel. This movie, whilst not based on a Doyle work, had a few literary nods to his work

I didn’t t realise it was Holmes😂😂 great disguise
Yes, it was the best Holmes disguise, and I've watched dozens of Holmes movies.
But it would spoil the fun if Watson kept saying "Ho ho, you call that a disguise? I could see that was you from a mile away, Holmes!"
I didn't even knew it was Holmes in that disguise, I thought it was just some annoying hobo.
Watching in the New year 2020...
Always loved Holmes & Watson movies...!

Better than the rubbish on Netflix. More uploads please!!! maybe hammer films or 50s sci fi or 60s and 70s documentaries !!
Love John Neville. A top notch Holmes.
Not a patch on Basil Rathbone, but perfectly acceptable as Holmes nevertheless, and this is a great version of this story
A decent portrayal. My favourite is Ronald Howard in the 1954 TV series, which also had the best Watson, H. Marion Crawford.
Whoever did it for real was probably known and was all swept under the carpet forever.
