I abhor the dull routine of existence. I crave for mental exaltation. That is why I have chosen my own particular profession, or rather created it, for I am the only one in the world.
Arthur Conan Doyle, The Sign of the Four

As much as I loved Jeremy Brett as Holmes, this has to be one of the silliest days yet. But in the spirit of the day, here’s Jeremy!
Best wishes, Pete.

What? Sillier than Waffle Day?😁 My top 3 Sherlocks are Benedict Cumberbatch, Robert Downey Jr., and Jeremy Brett.

happy Sherlock Day Kim, loved the parody (she ooked so much like B.C) and Pete’s video too. I still think RDJ was the sexiest even though he’s American 🤣

Thanks Fraggle. I love the Hilly sisters, you should check out their Pirates of the Caribbean video too. It’s amazing! For me, Robert Downey Jr. and Benedict Cumberbatch are tied for the sexiest Sherlocks, but I also love Jeremy Brett.

I like all the Sherlock movies and TV that I have seen. The one thing that bothers me is the ones that make Watson a buffoon, like the Rathbone Sherlocks.

I agree Don. There wouldn’t be a Sherlock without Watson.
