Sherlock

I could become a fan of the new BBC Sherlock Holmes serial. And mind you, I am a lifelong Holmes fan who has demanding tastes in adaptations (I hate Jeremy Brett, for instance).

Interesting to see how they'll update it to modern times. Sherlock Holmes, CSI?
Just curious, why didn't you like Jeremy Brett?

Yes, but how do you like Robert Downey Jr? *trying very hard to keep a straight face*

By The Way

I recall seeing a Sherlock Holmes show that had Edward Woodward as Holmes. A rather energetic one if I remember right. Do not remember who was Watson. I do like Brett as Holmes, but have not seen the Rathbone movies.
