Don't agree that Jeremy Brett was a great Sherlock. One, he's too short. Two, he acts like he's high all the time, and Holmes' use of 7 % cocaine is only mentioned in two of the early stories, and in none of the later. He wasn't wired like Brett portrays, and wasn't quite as dismissive of Watson in the novels. So, we differ, but it was a wonderful article. Thanks.

PS Basil Rathbone looked and acted like Holmes, but the writing was horrible.
