Synopsis

This extract centres on Jeremy Brett’s decade-long portrayal of Sherlock Holmes and the qualities that made his interpretation so widely celebrated. It reflects on a performance described as dashing, arrogant and moody, while also considering the intensity and emotional depth Brett sought to bring to Conan Doyle’s detective.

Created to offer a Holmes-specific version of the material, it is intended for readers who want the Sherlock Holmes section without the full 468-page biography; those who already own the complete book are advised there is minimal additional content.
