The Game's Afoot! Review ofSherlock Holmes And The Case Of The Silk Stocking DVDby

Advantages: Great performances, enjoyable who-dunnit mystery Disadvantages: Not overly faithful to the books
...'s performance as Watson in both this and the BBC adaptation of "Hound of the Baskervilles" from the year before; he's second only to David Burke in the "Best Watson Ever" stakes, in my opinion. Too often Watson is either portrayed as a complete blundering idiot (e.g. Nigel Bruce, the "classic" Watson who starred alongside Basil Rathbone in the 1940s) or just not nice enough (e.g. Edward Hardwicke) but Hart plays Watson as an intelligent individual with a kind heart who's just a bit of a sucker when it comes to his good mate Holmes, and, you know, I can live with that.

Allow me to state clearly, the show is not bad. Not at all. Brand's unique charm and his audience interaction are as good as ever. His confessional style to comedy is back, as he once again shares some embarassing and hilarious stories from his own life with the crowd. Most of the material is new and Russell on several occasions is able to demonstrate his great...
