I read the Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes stories in my 20's (I'm now in my 50's). I was hooked! I remember telling me: "that's the last story for tonight", but no! Dawn would come and I would still be reading... Good memories; and some years later: Jeremy Brett on TV! The books on screen. He is the only one for me. I'm faithful. Don't even want to watch the other ones. I know I would be disappointed. Thanks for your cry from the heart! I'm totally with you on this one.Valerienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31231411.post-84606694607547221872017-04-29T08:26:21.283+10:002017-04-29T08:26:21.283+10:00I completely agree.

Cumberbatch's Sherlock is that its novelty is eclipsing the truly magical performance by Jeremy Brett.DBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04094596928780098392noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31231411.post-19843005620015138312014-01-23T09:35:12.975+11:002014-01-23T09:35:12.975+11:00Carlos come and join our " Brettheads", ...Carlos come and join our " Brettheads", fan fuckingtastic article, might get it tattooed on my head.... :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07040675842939472867noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31231411.post-7641006312000322652014-01-23T04:34:05.746+11:002014-01-23T04:34:05.746+11:00This is absolutely brilliant!
