Peter was a top drawer actor, I've never seen him portray a character badly,in every film he was always brilliant even if it was a cheap budget film his brilliance always shined brighter than all the other actors in the film..R.I.P true gentleman.

From everything I have read, Peter Cushing was the sweetest man ,loving husband and gentleman. Thus he is my favourite Holmes for his warmth and manners. Understand the great affection and respect for for Brett and the production values at Granada TV. Holmes and the magnificent Dr Watson are two of the greatest characters in the anuls of literature.

Peter Cushing's best friend in real life was Christopher Lee and apparently, when they got together they would spend hours sitting in Cushing's private cinema watching Looney Toons Cartoons. 😊 Also, Cushing was a collector and paintet of Model Soldiers! 😊😊

@robinhooper2190..I totally agree. Peter Cushing was the definitive Holmes. Rathbone was good until they kept pushing him into out of the 19th Century and into modern day movies. I liked Rathbone in Hound Of the Baskervilles.. However, Cushing's over the top hyper take on Holmes in the Hammer Films movie was much better. His long face and underfed demeanor fit my idea of what Holmes really looked like.

It's also due to the shooting style and production. It's shot on video for the interior shots. Video has that 'quality' of seeming LIVE. Soap operas were famously shot on video and also have this LIVE stage play feeling. Most TV shows up until this era and after were shot on 16mm or 35mm film. But for a short time many TV shows, especially in Britain, were shot on video to save costs. The look is not as professional as film. Also, the audio quality is not as good as audio on film. But still, for TV, it was fine. Sadly, the BBC reused the tapes to save money and....recorded over many, many TV shows, entire series of shows. Hard to believe. But true.

He had a concept, but never was able to work on it. 2) That we went through the age of Black Exploitation films without one made about Yasuke the Black Samurai, a historical figure. 3) That for all their greatness and friendship, we had two legends like Peter Cushing and Christopher Lee walking this Earth, who played Sherlock Holmes in various movies, yet never worked together to duke each other as Holmes and Moriarty. How crazy would that had been if we had gotten that?

The thumbnail for this video is a still=frame showing Cushing as Holmes looking through his magnifying glass, with his left eye enlarged from the distortion . . . and this very shot was spoofed in the zany comedy "TOP SECRET!" starring Val Kilmer -- produced and directed by the Zucker-Abrahams-Zucker team that made "AIRPLANE!" and the TV show "POLICE SQUAD" (which spawned the "NAKED GUN" movies). There's an elaborate scene in "TOP SECRET!" where Val Kilmer, as 'Nick Rivers', goes to an old bookstore, I think it was, where Cushing portrayed its proprietor, whom we first see inspecting something with a magnifying glass . . . only for him to pull the glass away, revealing that his enlarged eye actually IS enlarged! The entire scene is supposedly in a foreign, European nation, and the 'language' Cushing speaks is actually spoken backwards, as they filmed the scene in reverse and then played the footage forwards. It was as hilarious as it was brilliant. I suspect that the Z-A-Z guys were inspired by the shot of Cushing as Sherlock, looking through the magnifying lens, when they thought up that similar shot for their comedy.

Re-watched THE WOMAN IN GREEN (1945) with Basil Rathbone, and he's got his cigarette case with him when he visits a bar with inspector Gregson and the bartender lights his cigarette and gives him the matches...later Holmes returns to the same bar with Hillary Brooke and they both smoke cigarettes...and when he goes to her apartment she offers him "Cannabis japonica, an oriental soporific" 😂 so it's not just the BBC and Cushing getting nauseated by the nearly omnipresent pipes, Holmes indulged in all manner of intoxicants, it goes all the way back to Conan Doyle. "I was right, Mr. Holmes, you Are a difficult subject." (the woman in green hypnotist, before the law leads he away) "Thank you."

As a Ballarat boy, it's great to have Mr Holmes point us out on a map. Even if it's not a flattering reference, the Poms did export the cream of the dregs Down Under Ozzie Ozzie Ozzie

Not really dregs in many cases, since people were often transported down under for relatively minor offences by today’s standards, and anyway, it’s probably what produced the characteristically tough and universally admired qualities of you Aussies

@trustydiamond I have no proof, but more than happy to wish to be the ancestor of a "criminal " the stereotype of a father who stole a loaf of bread to feed his children. The working class abandoned in a harsh environment months away from the English aristocracy, who could adapt and learn to make do, or perish, is what made us what we became, IMO.

Wonderful, Cushing is always a joy to watch, one of several actors who were born to play the Great Detective. A lovely production but I am at a complete loss in trying to understand the purpose of extreme closeups of a face which completely fill the screen. Why go beyond head and shoulders?

Not the best Holmes but not shabby, not at all, like his figure for Holmes, lean, could use a little more height, narrow face is spot on. Watson needs work or replacement, not bad but not near the other offerings we've seen. Bruce on, for me is my favorite but still in all there have been some good others. I don't think any yet have done full justice to Morarity, in present time I would be hard pressed to pick someone for the roll. Maybe not show Morarity at all, make him more of a shadowy villain, hidden by read newspapers or such, an overlord presence.

That's Nick Tate as James, who also played Eagle pilot Alan Carter on Space: 1999. Good story! I'm guessing it was something made for British television, since it was only 49 minutes, and all the interior shots were on video, while all the exterior shots were on film.

Yes. British television back then was wondwrful, unlike usa today. Very little tv commercials. 20-25 minutes of commercials here for a 60 minute show.
