Rathbone's Sherlock

Are there any Sherlock Holmes fans around here? Particularly the books and the Rathbone and Bruce series made around WWII.

Yes, the film, "Hound of the Baskervilles" is a fav of mine. I have never read any of the books.

We still get the series with Jeremy Brett but someone at Auntie Beeb decided to do a new series with some young actor that is a bloody disaster IMHO.

Bathbone was THE Sherlock Holmes, as far as I'm concerned.

I believe his version is still available on DVD either from Acorn or BBC.
