Summary: Here are the Ones, You'll Not see so Often
Comment: As soon as I Search, and Scour, to Find the Ecclectic, on the Greatest Sherlock Holmes Series-Much less, anything else, and Buy -it, the Stores (and the World) decide to order and Start Carrying it!! Either Buy this, and the: "Memoirs","Casebook"( as an Extention of Sherlock), OR Buy the Whole BOX (everything)Set. JUST, Do not Pass this By !! Bret,and Hardwick, are Re-united-the Both Being Consumate to the "enth"- in the rarer, Unique, and Very Touching Cases, of Sherlock Holmes and Dr. John Watson. The Other Reviews Tell it all...and thay can Spell Too!! I JUST WANNA HIGHLY RECCOMMEND This Box set. And I got IT at Amazon MARKET Place, for about $30 Brand Spankn' New. Will Cheerish this set for Years to Come.

Summary: The return of Sherlock Holmes box set
Comment: Fans of Sherlock Holmes, particularly Jeremy Brett as Holmes, will love this set. Brett seems to really have fun as Holmes in these episodes, and Edward Hardwicke as Watson replaces David Burke seamlessly. The locations and period costumes really seem like victorian London and all the episodes are beautifully filmed. Definitely five out of five stars.

Summary: Jeremy Brett at the top of his game
Comment: No other Holmes makes you love the character more. Sadly, Brett's health deteriorates before your eyes in this collection, but you're seeing a master at work, and it's a blast.

Summary: Sherlock Holmes Returns....
Comment: Grenada Television's second installment of hour-long Sherlock Holmes mysteries, featuring the incomparable Jeremy Brett as the fictional master sleuth and Edward Hardwicke as Dr. Watson, is available in "The Return of Sherlock Holmes DVD Collection."
The eleven episodes in "The Return" are actually drawn from all over the Sherlock Holmes canon. The adaptation to film from Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's original stories is generally excellent. The episodes feature superb period details and location shooting around England. Among the highlights in this collection: "The Empty House" in which Holmes returns from the seeming dead to shock the good Dr. Watson and Mrs. Hudson and to collar an old enemy using a unique weapon of assassination; "The Musgrave Ritual" in which Holmes and Watson investigate a modern murder with an ancient twist; and "The Priory School" in which the disappearence of a wealthy young heir leads to a nobleman's secrets.
Jeremy Brett, who suffered from illness in later installments of this series, is at the top of his very considerable form as Sherlock Holmes. He captures all the quirks of the original, including his taster for theatricality and his baiting of Scotland Yard Inspector Lestrade, forever left in Holmes' investigative wake. Edward Hardwicke is a capable counterpart as an eager Watson, less brillant but with people skills Holmes lacks. Brett and Hardwicke truly capture the unique chemistry of the energetic and brillant but mercurial Holmes and the solid and patient Watson. Special kudos are due Rosalie Williams, the long-suffering Mrs. Hudson, landlady of 221B Baker Street throughout the series, who gets a prominent role in "The Empty House."
This installment in the Grenada Television Sherlock Holmes series is very highly recommended to fans of Sherlock Holmes, who will find these one hour episodes to be highly entertaining and enjoyable.
