Review: Granada's Greatest Detective: A Guide to the Classic Sherlock Holmes Television Series

I've made no secret of my opinion that Jeremy Brett is the best Sherlock Holmes bar none. Spare me your Wilmer, Rathbone and Cumberbatch - Brett is the Zeus of this pantheon. The Granada series is, for me, the zenith of canonical fidelity (and yes I know standards fell towards the end).

I'm part of Generation G. Are you?

 Oh what it is to be a forty-something Sherlockian. I sometimes wonder where I fit in. The under 35s are largely in the new Cumberbatch/Miller wave and the over 55s are the "old guard" in charge of most traditional societies.

Unseen Sherlockian women

Not long ago I was criticising myself for not looking through my Sherlockian library properly.

Exploring the library

I really am an idiot at times. Always on the lookout for exciting things to collect without bothering to pay attention to what I already have.

Tide yourself over

I'm not likely to post again before the end of the year and when I do post again it will probably be to talk about The Abominable Bride.

Mission accomplished

I have never made a secret of my fondness for the Granada series starring Jeremy Brett.

Museum of London - Sherlock Exhibition

Yesterday I finally got myself along to the Sherlock Holmes exhibition at the museum of London.

Thoughts on Sherlockian blogs and social media

There have been websites that revolved around Sherlock Holmes since the Web came into being but it is getting harder to find the focused ones.

Do you love Sherlock Holmes? Okay, which one?

Okay, when I say 'love' here I mean 'like' or consider yourself a 'fan' of rather than anything more romantic. However, if you meet someone who claims to love Holmes it is worth asking them the follow up question.
