  • Hailed as the most faithfully filmed adaptation of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's legendary characters. This acclaimed series stars Ronald Howard as the world-famous sleuth and H. Marion Crawford in a different portrayal of Dr. Watson than usual.
    THE CASE OF THE JOLLY HANGMAN: Jessie Hoper is sure her late husband William did not hang himself while on a business trip to Scotland. Holmes and Watson travel to Glasgow, meet with Lestrade's inspector cousin MacDougal, and confirm it was a murder by examining the hanging rope. Holmes also learns of a traumatic experience from William's childhood, the murder of his grandfather, that would provide the motivation for the crime. William must have encountered his grandfather's murderer and recognized the man.

      Basil was the REAL Holmes, no one comes close to Rathbone!
      Weissmuller the real Tarzan
      Falk the real Columbo
      Connors the real Mannix
      Jack Lord the real Steve McGarrett!
      The follow on actors no matter how good they are can never replace the original actors who made the characters their own in the public consciousness!

      So many versions of Sherlock. The recent ones with 'hi-tech' hardware (contraptions) are my least favorite, esp the rapid pace of dialogues (tone if voices uneven) & movements. Couldn't care much for them. Jeremy Brett my better favorite for now till I see the others.

    I like all the different Sherlock Holmes and Drs. Watson. Each portraying actor brings their own unique and distinctive quality to their characters. I like them all. Although I do think the best looking are Ronald Howard who looks like his father, and who I always like when I was a kid, and Geoffery Whitehead. Bravo for all the actors who portrayed Holmes and Watson 😁👍

    I love the way the actors play multiple roles. It reminds me of live theater. I did some of that myself and occasionally found myself having more stage time than the main actors when playing several bit parts in a production. That was so much fun. I'd highly recommend trying some community theater for a fun time with enjoyable people!

    There's a few episodes in this series, like the Blind Man's Bluff, the Case of the Perfect Husband (which had Michael Gough), and this one, that have this dark, creepy, disturbing aura about them. This one has always stuck in my mind. The description of the murder of Billy's grandfather always stuck out to me. And of course, that ironic ending.
    The only bad thing I could say is that I would have liked to have known why Baxter killed Billy's grandfather.
    P.S These are best watched with the lights turned off, by candlelight.

    Wasn’t Leslie Howard the spitting image of his father! They look startlingly just alike! Both wonderful actors too. I agree w others on here that his Holmes is perhaps a shade better than that of Basil Rathbone’s. Much as I like the latter’s portrayal well enough, this one seems more real, less acted, less in costume. The Watson here I’ll have to get used to as I loved the two who accompanied Jeremy Brett’s noble detective who seemed to walk straight out of the book onto the screen. Many thanks for digging this long-buried treasure up for us late keepers of the night. Perfect accompaniment.

    I have been watching these Sherlock Holmes shows and enjoying them. I gave up watching television years back. Turned it on the other day whilst setting up my television and computer after a move. During a show, at each intermission there were four commercials. Turned it off and switched over to CZcams, I will now sometimes watch a PBS show, but even then they have commercials. But, I noticed now that CZcams has advertisements right on the site where I am watching a show. Oh, well. Thank you for posting!

      Coincidentally, a UK channel called Talking Pictures TV has just started showing this series, most recently this episode on 1st September, but if it's dreadful commercials you want, come to Britain, where you will be deluged by adverts that are shallow and loud, appealing to a target audience that fits the same description, fat and ignorant, permanently transfixed by their iPhones, and with nothing in their heads but the latest reality tv show. Quality productions like this would be lost on them, and if you mentioned Sherlock Holmes, they would ask if he was in Dancing on Ice.

    I like both Basil Rathbone and Ronald Howard since they both brought Sherlock Holmes to life in their own ways:
    Ronald Howard is much more relaxed and easygoing, while Basil Rathbone was the more mature, hardbitten, and experienced version.
    Both men were different, but they were clever, charming and focused, with a sense of humor that could throw anyone off and still make one smile.
    Peter Cushing and Christopher Lee were also great, except that the latter was ruined by the stupid dubs that were used.

      You anticipate the later episode, "The Case of the Missing Housekeeper" in which Holmes and Watson, tipped off by the fact that no washing-up is being done and they are having to cook their own meals, realise that Mrs Hudson has not been seen in a single episode. Now hot on the trail of clues, Holmes wonders if the disappearance is linked to the pungent odour that has pervaded the apartment for months, and the strange fluid seeping under Mrs Hudson's bedroom door. Brilliantly deducing that she has died, he says, "You know what to do, Watson?" (meaning call the police), to which Watson replies, "Yes, Holmes, I'll get a cloth."

    Nice stories, nice interpretation, nice all round. The one problem I have with it is that the Holmes characterization lacks his usual eccentricities. Holmes as written by Doyle, was not such a nice dude, and has been played much better with more peculiarities by Brett, Rathbone and all the modern Sherlock's. I prefer Homes with an edge.

    Someone, in the comment section on another episode, asked how Holmes could afford not charging his clients. Someone else said that he only charged his well-off clients, which is possible, but in the movie "Young Sherlock Holmes" they suggest that Holmes comes from money, big money, money with a capital M.
