I've always enjoyed Sherlock Holmes' videos. Two years ago I was happy to acquire the entire Basil Rathbone collection on DVD. Then I saw an episode of Sherlock Holmes starring Jeremy Brett. That's when I decided I needed to expand my Holmes collection. BEST VIDEO DECISION I'VE EVER MADE! ***** This set is the entire series of Granada Holmes programs. Not only does it have the weekly shows originally aired in the 1980's & 1990's, it also includes the movies they aired during that time. ***** Enclosed in the package you'll find a pamphlet with an enjoyable synopsis of each story. Filmed predominantly on location, these tales are presented with Victorian English charm. (Quite the pleasant change from set-filmed presentations!) ***** Heads up - on the rear outer panel of the packaging, only half of the titles are listed. Fear not, all the titles are actually included in the DVD's. ***** The crispness of color, clarity of audio and option of sub-titles make this the perfect Holmes fan's gift! Whether you enjoy mysteries in general, are a fanatic of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's, or are a Jeremy Brett devotee - DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND BUY THIS COLLECTION!!!

If you like the mystery genre, and would like to get the BEST of the BEST, then this is the ULTIMATE Collection!!! NO actor has done a better job BECOMING Sherlock Holmes, than Jeremy Brett. He is a joy to watch - and this collection allows you to see him bring this beloved and well-known character to life.
True, other actors have done admirable jobs at portraying Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's illustrious detective - but NONE have equalled or surpassed Brett's ability. He IS Holmes!!!
I cannot recommend this highly enough - words do NOT do him justice. Watch these and see - you will be AMAZED at his transformation. The mannerisms, the speech, the EVERYTHING!!!

I purchased this set because I wanted to see the episodes that I hadn't seen on PBS. I don't think PBS bought all of the episodes. Because I'm used to HD tv, I was at first disappointed in the grainy look of the film, but then I remembered that it was made in the 80's and the cds are direct recordings of the original film. These programs are so beautifully filmed that it would be great if they could "remaster" them, if that is the right word, for better video quality.

Sherlock Holmes fans, treat yourself to this box set

If you are a true Sherlock Holmes fan this is the box set for you. Each of the episodes is much more like a movie than a TV show episode. Unlike previous "quote" Sherlock Holmes movies and TV shows this series used REAL Sherlock Holmes stories written by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. They stick very close to the original stories and the settings are superb. They acting is flawless and the casting is perfect. This is my second set, my first one has been watched and borrowed so many times that the discs are showing signs of ware. Forget Basil Rathbone, Jeremy Brett "is" Sherlock Holmes.

This is the ultimate Sherlock Holmes collection. Bought it for my husband for Christmas and he LOVES it! My husband has been a fan of Jeremy Brett since the tv series came out decades ago. Great price, great picture quality.
