I have a book about Sherlock Holmes and I noticed the forward was written by Christopher Lee. He was a great Sherlock Holmes tho I still like Basil Rathbone who was great despite some pretty cheap productions.

The Jeremy Brett series is probably the best ever done.

Uhhhm, My typing goy a little ahead of my roof reading. While Lee introduces this series, it was Ron Howard who played Sherlock Holmes. for many years I used to watch this series, before going to sleep. I was sad when my local PBS channel stopped airing it. Watching it now, is like slopping into a long lost pair of comfortable slippers.

My fave is Basil Rathbone as Sherlock. I like his cool demeanor. Brett is too flamboyant for my taste.

I like Watson in the Rathbone movies as well.
