Sherlock Holmes (Granada) » favorite scenes
Ok, This is one of my favorite parts of HOUN. It’s like… OH DUDE, CREEPY FUCKER WANTS YOUR SKULL, HOLMES. RUNNNN.
Okay so when we read Hound of the Baskervilles in high school our teacher had us draw fanart for it (I don’t know why) and one of my classmates drew Dr. Mortimer with giant fucking hands.
Jeremy Brett and Dame Maggie Smith, ladies and gentlemen.

Whoa….
Jeremy Brett in a production of “Dracula”. With set designs by Edward Gorey.
A ) DANG but I would have loved to have seen this.
B ) I once had a friend who had the pop-up book of Gorey’s stage design, Dracula: A Toy Theatre
Happy Birthday, Jeremy Brett! [November 3rd 1933 - September 12th 1994]
Still my definitive Sherlock, even tho I love Russian Holmes and Elementary Holmes A LOT. I guess I love them all for different reasons - my limited exposure to the various Holmeses all appeal to me in one way or another. But now that I’ve started reading Doyle’s books, Brett seems to most accurately capture the character Doyle is describing.
(of course this is also a subjective thing and is probably influenced by the fact that Granada Holmes was my introduction to the character. anyways)
You’re still missed, Jeremy.
The fact that it’s Jeremy against an Edward Gorey set basically makes this the best thing ever.
One of my favourite Jeremy Brett photographs, if not my favourite.
How do you not reblog this?
My favourite Sherlock, ngl. (sorry Benedict, though you are awesome)
