I am torn between the old and the new, Jeremy or Benedict - then I remember I don't have to choose I can love them BOTH! There is a real joy in sharing the love of the character of Holmes. Enjoy the other new episodes on PBS xAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12897651512349501048noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3409520830606075621.post-45363057104564912312014-01-23T18:17:05.706-08:002014-01-23T18:17:05.706-08:00I loved reading your blog about SH.

Jeremy Brett was my first Holmes, and I watched/ read whatever I could get my hands on. I live in a place where the closest known society is 2.5 hours away, so I felt quite isolated in my love of the character until this new series became so popular. After taking backseat to life for the last several years, I am back full force in the fandom. I get excited to see all of the new people reading and falling in love with a character that I love so dearly. I watched my facebook feed with inexhaustible joy Sunday night, as I counted the number of friends commenting on the show's PBS premier. I also promptly issued a reading list for them. ;) Thank you for your post.

Ready for Series4 now. Hear talk about a film. Very exciting! My friend went to the recent SH London Society Dinner recently. Do pop back. I'm sure there will be more SH in the future. xAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12897651512349501048noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3409520830606075621.post-54514384624340250072014-01-23T11:19:44.475-08:002014-01-23T11:19:44.475-08:00Hello Hanya - I so enjoyed reading your blog about...Hello Hanya - I so enjoyed reading your blog about SH. Much of what you say applies to me: I discovered the stories & read them all when young; I adored the Jeremy Brett/Granada TV Holmes; I saw The Secret of Sherlock Holmes twice at The Wyndam Theatre; met JB & EH after 2nd time & they were delightful. Have belonged to the SH Society of London for yrs; I absolutely love Sherlock & feel that Benedict Cumberbatch & Martin Freeman are just perfect casting - & everyone! - no wonder the series is such a success! I loved this 3rd series so much, for so many reasons-hope you did too.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3409520830606075621.post-80779151990982002472014-01-03T08:12:03.686-08:002014-01-03T08:12:03.686-08:00Thanks for leaving a comment Jane.

Wasn't it clever, and yes, beautifully acted and Benedict CUMBERBATCH crashing through the window, ruffling his hair to brush the glass away and kissing Molly HOOPER! *swoon* It has encouraged me to return to the original storiesAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12897651512349501048noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3409520830606075621.post-10693611909161993572014-01-03T08:04:00.001-08:002014-01-03T08:04:00.001-08:00Very good intro to the (not so weird!) world of Ho...Very good intro to the (not so weird!) world of Holmesian enthusiasts, and as part of that world I too was eagerly awaiting the "Sherlock" episode last night. The writers (well, Mark G this time) have delightfully raided the Canon for names and quotes, and "British Birds" (EMPT) is NEVER going to be the same again!! Very clever script, beautifully acted by all, and if it encourages new readers of the original stories, that will be an added bonus. Holmesian Greetings.
