Wow. Brett's emotion when Lestrade praises Holmes. I think it highlights that the character does have a softer side, however hard it may be to get through to. Sherlock is ultimately lonely. An outcast, tired of being the only person as intelligent as he is. People have probably alienated him all his life, so for someone other than John Watson to compliment him must mean a hell of a lot to him.
The facial changes Jeremy made after lestrades compliment were so powerful! that one scene alone should have earned him the BAFTA. Brilliant acting!
Absolutely, in those few seconds you saw the real Holmes.
Brilliant acting by Jeremy Brett.
Those eyes, filled with tears of joy and proud... Those nuances while Lestrade waxing eloquent .... What a performance Jeremy... For me you will always be THE Sherlock Holmes... Respect!!!
Everybody praises Jeremy Brett as the ultimate Holmes and both David Burke and Edward Hardwicke as the ideal Watsons, but can we please pause for a moment to appreciate Colin Jeavons as the absolutely perfect Lestrade...?
The whole cast was incredible, including Mr Jeavons, I agree completely
Absolutely. Jeavons gets all of Lestrade, his flaws, and his very real virtues.
Absolutely; Jeavons as Lestrade was brilliant casting. By far the best to play the role.
Its like no one had ever told Holmes before that they were proud of him--and he reacts like a child finally recieving verbal affection from a father--such a wonderful scene and wonderful acting.
I like how Lestrade looks a bit guilty of unintentionally causing Holmes to react in such a tender manner.
Very well said
Final moments, has got to be one of the most powerful | moving scenes of British TV history. Jeremy Brett is off the scale in the superlative stakes.
Totally agree. For YEARS this has been, to me, the most memorable and moving scene on TV...or anywhere. Brett is monumental. A thing of beauty and a joy forever.
@@davidmathews2124 I grew up watching Basil Rathbone as Holmes. I liked him, although I despised the way they had Nigel Bruce portray Watson. I never knew this series existed until I was clued into it by my sister - and I am so VERY glad I found out about it. I can easily understand why so many say he is THE definitive version of Sherlock Holmes. This scene, in particular, fleshes out what the story itself says so well - and his breadth of expression, plus the handshake at the end (which isn't shown here), was superb without being melodramatic.
@@TheDoctor1225 I read or heard Rathbone's Watson played by Nigel Bruce was played for laughs or light heartened during the WW2 years. I don't like it much either but there is a why to Watson by N. Bruce. I wish the writers in this series had filmed Black Peter. Well all the best to you.
Benedict who? Robert Downey something or other? What's-his-name Rathbone?
No. JEREMY BRETT.
@starchildstrider I think Basil Rathbone did a good job as Holmes but the movies were completely overshadowed by and ultimately ruined by the portrayal of Watson that was written for Nigel Bruce. Rathbone was a superb actor making the best out of what he had to work with. I do agree, though, that for a realistic, accurate portrayal of the character as written in the canon works, no one comes close to Jeremy Brett. As for RDJ's insult to the stories, I feel that was best summed up by a comment I heard which said "You'd like the movie - UNLESS you knew anything about Sherlock Holmes."
I actually place RDJ above Benedict. Because RDJ was able to own his portrayal onscreen. Benedict was just PAINFUL to watch. Like a 12 year old that watched Jeremy Brett’s Sherlock. Awful
@@TheDoctor1225 Yes, the Watson role as written for Bruce is very unfortunate, reducing him to a clown. And a not funny clown.
Theres very few things that make Sherlock Holmes cry...Bravo, Lestrade. Bravo.
yeah... ^^
Well said
A slap in face brings no tears to the eyes of the cold, Iron Man, but a word of praise does!!! He's obviously so moved. Especially that facial expression play between the 2 consequative thank yous is priceless.
Lestrade had never acknowledged Holmes's genius. In "The Norwood Builder" Lestrade says to Holmes in front of others, "You may have helped us once or twice in the past", at which Holmes gives a secret smile. For Lestrade to say what he does here - Holmes can't believe it, and then is terrribly moved
I couldn't agree more.
This is sublimely acted. Lestrade is a good chap after all. Jeremy's reactions to his praise are exquisite.
This conversation wouldn't make sense with any other portrayal of Holmes and Lestrade which goes to show how brilliant this version is. I love how this episode shows the relationship between the three of them and that it really is amicable.
Also, I love how, just after this scene when Lestrade leaves, Holmes makes a point of offering to shake his hand (which is something Brett's Holmes avoids doing most of the time). I just... I love this episode.
How did he remove that table cover from under the tea set without disturbing the cups and kettles. Jeremy, you're magical
You will rarely see such a perfect, pure, nuanced, spiritual + soaring performance. Jeremy Brett displaying in a few seconds what most actors fail to show in a lifetime.
Showing that "crack in the marble" and revealing the human being lying beneath the hard outer shell. This scene moves me. It's Jeremy I see when Lestrade commends Holmes. The man had a beautiful soul and his fight with his mental health is one that inspires. I love the man.
@starchildstrider Yes he was amazing. As a man I see his beauty, his brilliance, his attention to detail. He is eminently watchable + always delights.
As an adult I discovered his fight with Manic Depression and I see his acting as something spiritual + encouraging. He had a strength only few hold.
When I see him at the beginning of The Priory School in his rooms I am taken aback by his power as a human being.
He was amazing and I feel a kinship with him which is extraordinary. X
@starchildstrider What an absolutely beautiful response. Yes I think you're absolutely right.
Jeremy's recognition, to me, is that he's STILL regarded as the definitive Holmes despite all comers in recent years. Now THAT says so much to me. Nobody inhabited that role like Jeremy. Like I say, I feel like I'm watching Jeremy in a lot of scenes. The end of The Second Stain when he jumps off the steps is the scene that gets me the most. Jeremy fought for that scene. I see everything he IS in that moment and it always makes me cry copious tears.
Lovely to talk to you too.
Jeremy will be with us always.
Much love to you.
Xx
"Gentlemen if i could have your outmost attention-*SMASH*"
Holmes is a boss your argument is invalid. The emotion that he shows when Lestrade praises him is priceless. I also love Colin Jeavons acting in this. No one but him can make a Lestrade like that.
Holmes has such a deft mind...rarely do we have a chance to see just how deft of hand he is. And then right at the end, we see a glimmer of emotion and gratitude. Such a complex, multifaceted man.
The scene when inspector praises sherlock is epic. I believe that it's the best performance by JB. What an actor!! The entire scene when his eyes well up would be for approximately 20 secs. The way he gathered himself back.. Or tried to!! With a low baritone, emotional thank you!!! Oh man!!! Applause!!!
The finest scene in the series. Truly a Tour de Force performance from Jeremy Brett. And whoever plays Mr. Sandiford is absolutely adorable.
Outstanding acting from Mr. Jeremy Brett, it actually made me tear up a bit with such display of emotion that seemed to come from his very soul, the scene was just acted to perfection! My god may he be enjoying his stay in heaven to the fullest, because we miss him here dearly :(
His expression from lestrades admiration and pride is subtle and one of the best emotional facial expressions in acting I've ever seen. The array of emotions held back you can see in fleeting milliseconds across his face is masterful.
It's very hard for proper men to show that kind of powerful emotion to one another. But the gratitude is there, and the bond is real.
As great as this was, you missed the icing on the cake. The handshake that Holmes offers lestrade. I cannot recall any other time holmes shaking hands with anyone, may be one more occasion but nothing more than that.
Once more when he shakes hand with the little daughter of Mr. Savage in the story of the Dying Detective
This scene is such a non-stop-watcher!!!
Sherlock Holmes is just so awesome in this part! Granada should still be proud on their prime actor! I hope at least someone ever said to him the same Lestrade say here to Sherlock.
1:50 - 2:50 I think the funniest part of this whole scene starting with that look he gives to Watson and Lestrade, because you know he is about to start some crazy shit.
The unneeded, yet beautiful theatrics leading to smashing the bust.
My favourite moment of all the Granada series. I just wish it included the final moment when Holmes thrusts his hand out for Lestrade to shake before he leaves. And then turns to playing his violin.
I'm still amazed by how he pulls the tablecloth without moving the tea set.
It's one of my favourite scenes too. The table cloth trick, the unexpected praise from Lestrade, and his touching reaction to it... This entire episode is just wonderful.
Jeremy Brett is outstanding
THE FEAT ACCOMPLISHED IN 6:10 TO THE END IS A MATCH. IT IS A MATCH WITH THE GREATNESS OF SHAKESPEARE,THE POETRY OF WORDSWORTH AND THE STORIES OF PREMCHAND.
SHERLOCK HOLMES WAS WRITTEN FOR JEREMY BRETT.
REMEMBER WORLD:WHENEVER YOU COMPILE AN ULTIMATE LIST OF ALL THEATRE ARTISTS OF THE WORLD JEREMY BRETT SHOULD BE THERE.
THE TWO SECONDS AFTER ""THANK YOU"""" ARE PRICELESS.
WITH RESPECT FROM INDIA
Well said , Sir ! I salute your impeccable taste.
Holmes great need for professional respect and lestrades proud affirmation was perfectly acted by these two gentlemen :)
I was so lucky to see Jeremy Brett and Edward Hardwicke on the stage in 'The Secret of Sherlock Holmes' it was just these two in it brilliant, and used to see Colin Jeavons quite a bit as he lived just down the road from me, they were superb in their roles.
how I envy you! I wasn't even around at that time!
@@phantom.lover0527 ❤️❤️
What a great actor he was
Jeremy Brett the perfect Holmes ..I miss his masterful acting
Get this man a posthumous BAFTA
If I had to choose one scene from the whole series it would be this one. "Powerful" seems so small a descriptive.
Jeremy brett is to holmes what christopher reeves is to Superman
Pure brilliance!
Superlative acting from Mr Brett
Brilliant acting on both parts and an excellent scene too, it's just a shame that the part where Holmes pulls out his violin and Watson almost telepathically knows to just sit down and leave him be has been left out.. Nonetheless....brilliant!
Ah there's a bit more just after this when Holmes says goodbye to Lestrade and shakes his hand...
The one dislike is from Beppo.
Now it seems Papa, Pietro, and Lucretia Venucci has joined him...
I just love the acting of Jeremy Brett. It's so touching..
RIP great man
My goodness I love the tablecloth-tea set thing more every time.
Loved this scene...Holmes gets tears in his eyes...knew he had a heart!
man i thought i was true holmes/jeremy fan. fk i missed this completely. this is beyond human expression
Outstanding.
Applause for the pearl,but not for the tablecloth pull?,
my god the way he pulls that table cloth.how does he do that
I was about to ask the same...
@@darcyliz9993 Its all elementary my dear friends, I would examine the teacups more closely. Especially under the saucers, the craftsmanship is truly exquisite
Precise applied physics, my friends. Gravity pulls down on the (presumably heavy and/or weighted-unless Jeremy truly was just that talented) china set which a human-made force counteracts, moving in a perpendicular motion.
Amazing story, amazing set, amazing acting, the whole thing is a work of art!
Wow! The quality of this video is superb and so is the episode.... the tablecloth, the oh so cute thanks scene... many thanks!
Jeremy Brett was possibly the best actor to have ever played Sherlock Holmes as I prefer him more than Robert Downey Jr.and Basil Rathbone; further, I would have paid to watch the Jeremy Brett episodes if they were movies and own the complete works.
Ohh it's so lovely listening Jeremy Brett talking a bit of my language!. Greetings from Italy :)
All this is so brilliant that I lack the words!
Am finally getting 'round to seeing all these again. While there are many examples of Jeremy Brett's impeccable poise and grace, 1:58 - 2:45 is pure poetry in motion.
Many thanks for the high-quality upload. ;D
1:58 So very true.
Also, I love the way he sweeps Lestrade and Watson to each side.
Gooood eeevening Mr. Sandiford.....
2:44 sbaaam!!! ^^
and the lovely final scene... ^^ very impressive
Jeremy demostró cuan extraordinario es ser un Sherlok humano , su máxima emoción al final así lo afirmó . Bravo Jeremy, fuistes el mejor y
no habrá otro que lo supere. 👍
The essence of Brett's Holmes
Tears are in my eyes after just seeing this episode and watching the last scene thrice.
I've had a crush on the amazing J.B. for most of my life... It has deepened to the greatest admiration and affection.
Well, I don't know about Twilight Zone and Dr. Who, but as far as Sherlock goes, I think he's done a rather good job taking the original plots and putting them into the modern day. Besides, other than key things, the Sherlock adaptions are quite different from the original serials. At least in my opinion.
Thpusand likes for you for this beautiful comment for one the greatest artist ever lived RIP MR.Brett!
A great piece of acting, masterful, moving!
Robert Downey just played Robert Downey with a bad british accent
Nobody, and I mean nobody, will come as close to portraying Sherlock Holmes as brilliantanly as Jeremy Brett.
BRILLIANT acting
Admirável e inesquecível! Thank you, Jeremy Brett.
Pull that tablecloth, Sherlock!! LOL *claps*
She paid fifteen shillings? Fifteen?!! She was conned! That's 75 quid in today's money, for some plaster! As a guide, 1800-1900 prices, £1 then (a Sovereign) is £100 today. There was little to no inflation during the century (small fluctuations but it's a good measure). 20 shillings to the pound then. When Holmes bets a fiver in The Blue Carbuncle to get the tradesman to tell him where the goose is, that's 500 quid. Etc. (So here the chap from Reading gets £1000 in today's money for something that is priceless. He should have known there was something dodgy at being offered so high a price, why not ask questions?!).
Also: can we all take a moment to appreciate all those line drawings and photographs of such minor characters and the hard work that went into them? They looked just like they were out of an 1880s Illustrated London News edition! A Sherlock Holmes this good will never be made again!
And how sweet, and spot on, the acting to the point of almost crying with the "thank you"s.
One of the best actors who ever lived, Jeremy Brett. We may never see the like again. Among the last of the Victorian and Edwardian-style gentlemen actors.
Even better that Holmes offers to shake hands with Lestrade just before he leaves
Colin Jeavons *was* Inspector Lestrade. _None_ better.
Watch for the appearance of Mirina Sirtis of Star Trek Next Gen. fame...she's the Borgia who was trying to regain the possession of the black pearl.....Or..by the name of.....Lucreztai Vennuci.....ohnphoo...they didnt included it in this cut.....
I knew it! This is holodeck story with Data as Holmes again!
I expect that the Black Pearl wound up in the same place as the Blue Carbuncle. Locked in Holmes's desk! Really, you'd think he ought to return stolen property. Very naughty, Mr. Holmes. 😅
Somewhat unrelated, but I sincerely hope the part where Lestrade compliments Sherlock happens in the recent, modern day adaption. That Sherlock is STARVED for recognition, and only John really gives him the praise he deserves. Admittedly, that Sherlock is prickly and difficult to get along with, but still. Benedict is a gorgeous actor and the moment would be... stunning, given the established characters. If there was ever a scene to adapt, it's this one. Seriously. DO YOU HEAR ME, MOFFAT?!
J.b never gets credit for being one a Britain's greatest actors ...fucks me off . What do you say Watson .
Smashing time.

My dear lady ; I'm afraid we must agree to differ on the question of Mr Moffat's
creative prowess. I will allow him some credit for his audacity however.
Still...the main thing is you are a Holmes fan which invariably indicates a person
of intelligence and good taste . Kind Regards.
The Age of Chivalry still lingers on in a few places...not least , I believe , in the
Southern States of your great nation .
Great! Thanx! @ ;-)
how did he manage the cloth trick?
What is the episode where Brett is purposly filling 221B with smoke? I can't find that episode anywhere. I think he was smelling the smoke to find out what cigar had a certain aroma. Thankyou
In The Solitary Cyclist, he did a chemical experiment and encased the whole appartment in smoke, and someone called the firebrigade ...
A youtube disagreement that doesn't end in vulgar insults? The first seal of the Apocalypse has been opened for sure.
I hope so too and I hope mr.Cumberbatch can do his acting as great in that scene as mr.Brett here. (He can do it! He's a great actor!)
He can try, but alas, Jeremy Brett is very difficult to equal.
Holmes surpreso? Lestrade o deixou sem palavras agora.
Lestrade 1x1Holmes.
How would a pearl survive firing inside that ceramic?
@lordrandal90 it can be learned fast
@urmo345 that doesn't answer my question, but whatever
i was thinking what would've happened if beppo had first stole the bust from Sandeford?
Logically he would start with the ones in closest proximity. Why take a long trip for a one in six chance?
where did your Deviant art account go? It says you do not exist any more!!! This makes me sad... :"(
6:10
@urmo345
So, you have given us the end first, then parts 2, 3, 4, 5, part 4 again, and the end again, but no first part. Where is it?
Considering that he's plagiarised his way through every other version of the Holmes canon..not to mention his shameless theft of plots / storylines from Twilight Zone and other American sci fi series to furnish Dr Who with " original " scripts i think we can be fairly certain that he will " adapt " this scene too. Why go to the effort of actually creating
something original ?
The single most wholesome scene ever. He's a superbrain, not driven by emotion, but revealed in a split second to be one of the most feeling and sensitive of souls.
