Wonderful adaptations with splendid performances, particularly from Merrison and Williams. Indeed, they're possibly the best Holmes and Watson, rivalling Jeremy Brett and both his Watsons.

Brilliant from beginning to end

Clive Merrison is excellent as Sherlock Holmes & Michael Williams is also great as Watson. These are very good adaptions of some of the original Sherlock Holmes stories by Arthur Conan Doyle. Just sit back close your eyes listen & get transported back to Victorian England. Absolutely brilliant.

On its own as the best dramatisation of Holmes. This series will go down in History as the reference point. Enjoy!
