I love this brotherly relationship. I hope that the new Sherlock series does more with Mycroft & Sherlock because it would be worth developing. That's the only part of the series that I don't really care for. Otherwise it's awesome. This scene is almost word-for-word from the book. I just love Mycroft Holmes. And I just LOOOOVE Sherlock. In response to the one who posted this: I'm distracted by Jeremy Brett's beauty as well. :-D

Charles Grey! God i miss that man :-(

[MrHoppers002]

why is mycroft so much older than sherlock? shouldn't he be at most a few years older?

[Dragon1813]

@MrHoppers002 He is Sherlocks elder by 7 years according to the books.

I hate David Burke....his Watson is a dork. A daffy- smiling, daft-looking, damn stupid dork.

[AngelBiLove]

Such strange names... Mycroft and Sherlock. Did they actually exist before the novels??

[GiniaKat]

@AngelBiLove They mostly exist as last names. Sherlock means 'bright hair' and Mycroft means 'my little farm'.

I think Doyle used these two last names as first names because he was looking for something unusual.

[AngelBiLove]

@GiniaKat Really? That does make sence now. Waw =o thankyou for enlightening me. I shouldve noticed ><

[soumyaaymous]

i just cannot robert downey jr's portrayal to be holmes at all..seems more like tony stark...holmes must have a debonair calmness about him ...while RDJ is well..acting like tony stark !

Jeremy Brett is the holmes i have always envisioned while reading the stories.

every actor will do it differently tho..and Benedict Cumberbatch does a fantastic job in the recent series !

[kittfaust]

stephen fry has been cast as mycroft in the next sherlock holmes movie with Robert Downey jr

[ruthmeb]

I love the way JB just glides up that library ladder

[death2utubenow]

I know HOUSE, the TV show, borrows heavily from Holmes. It would be nice if they showed his "Microft" - Stephen fry perchance???

[ThreePipeProblems]

'*gasp* Children, my dear boy. Children.'

PRICELESS! <3

[changingowl10]

When I first saw this ep, my expression was like Watson's when the Holmes brothers were showing off. :D

Jeremy and Charles really were amazing.

[raherecolston]

Jeremy Brett tries hard, but here he has the scene stolen from him by the superb Charles Gray. At  00:41 where Mycroft rebukes his brother for suggesting only 1 child is priceless. Just love the bit at 1:36 where Watson looks at the camera,he's obviously admiring the acting craft of Gray and Brett and enjoying himself hugely.

[Aorenai]

Love how Watson kind of looks at the camera at 1:36.

[TheGhostilyGhost]

Both of their voices... :D

[MoistenedBint30]

Jeremy just stunning.

[HorrorFrogPrincess]

I just love this Mycroft. He's so cuddly. I love how Sherlock seems to expect he's about to be MAJORLY shown up in front of his friend. Their interaction is so brotherly. ^w^

[Dratini999]

Oh I'm so getting distracted with Jeremy as well...he's so awesome!!!

[lordrandal90]

what are the clothes Sherlock is wearing?

[jbaynam]

@lordrandal90 What do you mean what are the clothes Sherlock is wearing? They happen to be normal 19th Century clothes

[AylinRosaYael]

[strymnky4evr]

[mcgonagall1512]

Watsons looking on full of admiration is just priceless
