Sherlock Holmes: Funny bits from The Resident Patient

[phanpiggy]

I'm positive that Mrs. Hudson skinned Sherlock alive when he got back!

[mrtruongdeptrai]

Why Edward Hardwicke didn't play Watson in ''The adventures of Sherlock Holmes'', He played Watson in every movies with Jeremy except ''The adventures of Sherlock Holmes''

[thosenightswrong]

-HOLMES!!!

-Whats rrrrrong?

xD love his pronounciation(?)

[textthing]

Holmes does seem to love his Beethoven.

[GlassCtiy]

-oh thank you Mrs. Hudson I...must run.

yes watson run. and run fast

[tiemedown]

David Burke is my favorite watson, he is intelligent and friendly but there seems to be this edge of sadness to him.

[catherinespark]

Holmes plays the violin - the same bit he's been playing for ages.

Hears Watson's grunt and the scratching as he crosses out "The Brook Street Mystery". Gives a triumphant HA ; he's got through to him. Starts playing the same bit again, but quieter.

Watson crosses out 'Brook Street Residence'. Holmes's hears the crossing out and he stops playing. Then starts playing the same bit again.

Watson writes and doesn't cross out. Holmes continues onto a new bit this time, knowing he's got his way.

[MakeMeAChannel]

How does this have 129 likes, 2 dislikes? Both clips are a waste of your time. Do you really have nothing better to do than watch this?

[weirdlightsaber44]

@MakeMeAChannel You my friend are a complete arse. That or you haven't figure out that sarcasm doesn't work in text.

[InsertZipCode]

I feel SO bad for Mrs. Hudson.

[Rexicano]

Oh shut yer yap Miss Hudson...

you can be replaced by a young hot Lass who not only cleans and cooks but also lets Sherlock use his pipe on her in new and interesting ways.

[Trampadoo]

Oh gosh, I just love those little, intimate moments in the series. They always have me cackling with delight. Both are wonderful actors and brought Holmes and Watson alive. I also have to comment Jeremy Brett on the violin "playing". I used to play the violin and it always annoys me a bit when I see actors not even making an effort. You can tell he is not really playing it but it does look as real as even possible. Well done, Mr. Brett. :)

[swastikausa]

jeremy brett is so like stewie from family guy even the face.

[HimekaHaruna]

Poor Mrs. Hudson. She always has to clean up after Holmes' crazy shenanigans :/

[lordrandal90]

my mother looks like ms hudson when she enters my bedroom XD

[allyndeimos]

he needs a filing cabinet.

[prolifeprincess]

@allyndeimos Indeed! Hahaha!

[ImzadiJB1]

Great moments from the episode. I am rereading the Canon but I love the depth we get from the series - the nuances - the interplay between Holmes and Watson.. And yes I agree - both Watsons have their allure. David Burke is cute and cheeky and Edward Hardwick is loyal and with are real affection for JB that comes through. What a wonderful series the likes of which we will not see again. RIP beautiful Jeremy.

[ThreePipeProblems]

Bookstreet mystery...no doubt it will suffice...

Epic =D

[Elfdragon12]

Definitely some choice parts of this particular episode. These scenes are also pretty great since, while they're funny, they show just why Holmes is such an exasperating housemate. XD

Jeremy Brett is an absolutely wonderful Holmes. David Burke makes an amazing Watson too(not to say Edward Hardwick didn't too). Heck, Burke isn't too short on charms himself--I find myself drooling over him when I see him in that red smoking jacket in the Copper Beeches episode.

[AllHailAkemi]

-¡Holmes!

-WHAT'S wrooong?

dunno why but this part makes me laugh like a lunatic xD

[DecembersSunshine]

LOL Watson finds it right away after Holmes has torn the place apart. Poor Mrs. Hudson.

Did Jeremy Brett really play the violin?

[darijoe]

@DecembersSunshine I'm quite sure that he didn't. You may be able to tell that the playing isn't quite in sync with the music and there are other times throughout these episodes where it is a little more noticeable, but Brett does a wonderful job considering!

[radogost7]

@darijoe That's right, Brett didn't play the violine himself - I read somewhere that the daughter of Patrick Gowers (the composer) played all the Holmes's violin parts in the series - sorry I can't remember her name - she was around 15 back then and Patrick wanted Holmes's parts to be played by somebody very talented, but not a professional - as Holmes supposedly would have been.

[SETIat1420MHz]

@radogost7 also Jeremy Brett was left-handed but he played Holmes right-handed...

[Lyrictheac]

@SETIat1420MHz Really? I did not know that. That would be so difficult to do!

[textthing]

@darijoe

You can also tell from the fact that he doesn't play with vibrato, which is a dead giveaway.

[darijoe]

@textthing Well spotted.

[Milky111wtf]

@darijoe You can see that he was well coached, though. He moves in a clear imitation of the way an excellent violinist moves. For instance his bow distribution is very accurate. Vibrato is a bit more advanced so he couldn't fake that, but what he could do he did very well.

[darijoe]

@Milky111wtf All that is certainly the sign of a talented actor.

[Frenchaccro]

@DecembersSunshine Jeremy Brett didn't play violin (here, he his dubbed), but he played piano and sang very well.

[firetrucksnfishcakes]

"Oh thank you Mrs. Hudson I must run..." Her face when she sees Holmes's mess is soo freaking funny. I would have said... "AH CRAP ! HOLMES HAS DONE IT AGAIN!" 1:17

[cesspitpool]

I only recently started reading Sherlock Holmes. After hearing so many people swear that Jeremy Brett was the best. So I looked it up and...

I'M IN LOVE!

[VampireOuji]

How on earth can he find what he is looking for while throwing it around like that ? xD - Best Holmes ever, Brett rules !!

[SnapeAngel]

there at the beginning where he is digging through is office...that looks like my office when i am searching for something! LOL (and I wish I had a watson to find where i misted stuff! lol)

POOR POOR Mrs. Hudson!

[owl4]

lolol

[ronvins]

LOL

4:06

"HA!"

[WishingOne]

What is the name of the song Holmes is playing? I know it's from Bach...

[pastcloud]

@WishingOne : It's Beethoven's violin concerto in D Major, the 3rd movement. I love this series, and especially this episode. So cute Holmes and Watson

[WishingOne]

@pastcloud Thank you thank you so much! I've been itching to play that piece on my violin for some time now. :3

[ThePunisherFreak]

so what made jeremy brett so sick? sry, im still new.

[lightinthestars]

playing holmes made him so sick =/ kinda...

[ruthmeb]

Not really, he had a bad heart.

[ruthmeb]

heart condition plus psychiatric meds for bipolar

[fingerprint211b]

The man is a legend. I love every minute of every episode, although later you can see him getting worse progressively...

Also, this was the best watson

[OCoptimusconvoy]

evrytime i watch a sherlock holmes video, it has lame advertisement on it! wtfwf?

[IIIXBlackxCatXIII]

lols! I do this with my papers too! LMAO!!

[lmalory]

this is so wonderful!! david burke at the end reminds me of will ferrell. just hilariou!!

[sleedolfine15]

I read all of the Sherlock Holmes stories when I was a kid and must say that these productions are true to the spirit of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's original tales---But it is'nt just the marvelous performance of the great Jeremy Brett,it's the whole production from David Burke solid acting to the accurately detailed late 19th century english environment.Bravo!

[yamifannetje]

it doesn't matter how old you are to love this, right? Sherlock Holmes makes every girl's heart melting. And so does Jeremy Brett acting Sherlock Holmes. One would be out of her mind to not be touched .

[allaria8700]

I am glad that I am not alone feeling like that towards Jeremy Bretts Sherlock Holmes :) My heart melts everytime, I love him :)

[yamifannetje]

Me too. -sigh-

This great character, so perfect, so ...complete is not just an idol of a hero. Not even a God. He's an authenticity...

[ThreePipeProblems]

@yamifannetje Age, gender, (sub)culture doesn't matter. Everyone loves Sherlock Holmes =D

[foxcaty]

@yamifannetje i know you gotta looove sherlock <3 and JB is the best actor that ever played the part

[alguien1234]

Why Holmes said HA???

XD

[MagicansForce]

@alguien1234 *super belated* Because he got Watson to get rid of the first title. XD After that, it was only a matter of time before The Resident Patient became the title. The seeds of doubt had been sown. XD

[TheDevilsGuard]

This and the Red Headed League are absolute gems of television.

[coramunroe]

It's called "The Resident Patient" because Mr Blessington (aka Sutton) was a live-in, or "resident", patient of Dr. Trevelyan's.

[coramunroe]

20 years old.

I've been watching these since I was a kid, thanks to my parents =)

[nas703z]

XDDDDDDDDD

[yrti0121]

If youre watching this video

please answer this question;

how old are you???

i'm 16, and i wanted to know if any others, my age, are watching this?

[Shangas]

22 years old.

[DominoDisguise]

I'm 18...and loving this series!!

[mfoxie0x]

I'm fifteen, and possibly the only fifteen-year-old Holmes fangirl. But I don't care. :)

[coramunroe]

That's awesome! I'm glad you loves these too. (20-year-old fangirl here)

[lightinthestars]

lol dont worry im 15 too ;D you arnt the only one

[ThePunisherFreak]

@mfoxie0x You ain't the only 15 year old Holmes fangirl.... believe me..... I'm a 15 year old Holmes fangirl myself.......XD

[firetrucksnfishcakes]

@ThePunisherFreak I myself am one as well. :D! He is the imortal

[ultraviolet128]

@firetrucksnfishcakes snap!!

[kshitijnigam12]

'm 16 rt now but i hv watched dis since i was 14

[ThreePipeProblem]

16 at the moment, just a few more weeks and I'll be 17 =D But I have watched and read Holmes since I was about 7 years old.

[prolifeprincess]

@yrti0121 I'm 16 too and an obsessed SH and JB fan!!!

[Starryvideos]

@prolifeprincess

here here

[FraxinusDipetala]

How could you not know why it is entitled "The Resident Patient"?!

And lol, the state in which Holmes left the room reminds me of my own messy room.

[coramunroe]

Win.

[ThreePipeProblem]

It's called the resident patient because mr. blessington (suton) is a resident patient. He's a patient who lives in the same house as his doctor.

[Theta101]

Wow, certainly a leap of logic that March comes after February and January. Good all, Watson.

Damn, they are definitely so married. Hell, they might even be better than married. A married couple would hide stuff like addictions, secrets, and scandals. These two live a life full of the latter two and unapologetic for the first.

[Shifterred]

I love you and your comment.

<3 Marry me?

[doctorscompanion95]

Poirot would never be so messy**

love you sherlock

[GodsWildfire]

But Poirot has an annoying theme song.

[doctorscompanion95]

You think so? I love it, weel but everyone has there own poinion :-)

[WomaninBlack215]

Does anyone else find these scenes addictive???

[changingowl10]

Run, Watson, run!!

[beanmontag]

They are so married.

[doctorcropcircles]

*LOls* they are.

[WaysideFlower]

I just realized how strikingly similar this Watson is compared to Wilson on "House" (which, I know, is based loosely on Sherlock Holmes). Others may not agree, but I find the comparison to be quite close.

[sherlocklover89]

lol! watson tells holmes off for playing the violin so holmes goes and plays it in another room instead! lol the looks watson gave that door! and whats with the random HAH! from holmes?

[ShawDAMAN]

I think the random "hah!" is because he's trying to learn the beethoven piece better and he thinks he's getting it. Brett's "hah's" were always so funny =D

[morgan5154]

i THINK MS HUDSON HAD A STROKE

[2horsefanatic]

lol these are funny :D

[DrKillogic]

hahahahaa

[AppleScruffWitch]

Poor Mrs Hudson! *laughs* Her reaction was the funniest part, I thought.

[DarkLadyLavena]

I agree!!!

[strikinine]

wonderful video. 5*

[mmcrosbie]

This is wonderful. Too bad you have to have the web site address on top of it though!

[Luciferwolf777]

Lol XD I love when Sherlock laughs when he's behind the door.

[CryWolf9]

I feel for Mrs. Hudson. XD

[1992KCWolf]

XD yeah..

[Shangas]

Agree. Poor old darling, coming in and seeing her living room in such a mess!

[wadyano]

i love this pair. in the words of jeremy in an interview "it was friendship when friendship was allowed and respectable".

[WomaninBlack215]

When Mrs Hudson comes along, I just think "Run, Watson, run!"...

[sailorearth2007]

Ha, but it is Holmes that should run...he made the frantic mess, when all he had to do was look in the very "organized" files...like Dr. Watson. :D

[potatofiend]

Ha! Oh, I adore David Burke's Watson. The two of them are so cute together.

[WomaninBlack215]

This is just hysterical! But I have to ask, has anyone else noticed how weird it is that they found an actor who not only looks like Sherlock Holmes (seen the official illustrations) but also walks a classy walk (watch carefully from 1:00 to 1:04) talks a classy talk, and can pay the violin? Jeremy Brett was born to play this part!

[EuskaltelEuskadi]

I didn't know JB could play the violin! I thought it was dubbed over or something

[WomaninBlack215]

Ah, no, sorry, just found out the violin WAS dubbed over. Apparently it was someone called Katherine Gowers who really played.

[EuskaltelEuskadi]

yes, it must have been patrick gowers' wife (he wrote the theme music)

[Shangas]

I think Katherine is his daughter, actually.

[EuskaltelEuskadi]

well any relation to him that she may be

[RFTC69]

the best crime fighting duo ! ever

[onegin1971]

Holmes violine playing is in some way like a psychological warstrategy and he gets his will.

I like holmes "HA!"

[EuskaltelEuskadi]

that is so funny. holmes ought to come back in after watson's written the resident patient and say "thankyou watson" that would be hilarious.

[Thompsch]

Love how the two interact with each other(not in a bad way), the death look sent toward Holmes door when he continued playing was absolutly hilarious. And poor Mrs Hudson!

[Dandeleo]

The song is great but yes, Holmes'with his "what's wrrrrong" and his expression at Watson's title, and the following "No doubt it will suffice..." it's just so coolly funny. So much character in so little dialogue and action. Superb.

[AlexC2827]

It is catchy! I love Watson "Um, I must run" I would kill Holmes or make him clean it up. :)

[hene777]

The song Holmes is playing is quite catchy.

[herodotus53]

Maybe Watson just doesn't like Beethoven?

[sherlockwannabe]

I love this vidieo-I must have watched it 10 times and I still crack up every time I see it again. Holmes is such a slob! Actually, he is a piler, meaning he's the kind of person who keeps every scrap of paper he ever got and can usually pull a 2 year old phone bill out of a 18 inch stack of papers. I think that Holmes had just finished his once a year "clean up" and hadn't re-learned the location of everything yet. Sounds like me after I clean my room.

[tarinisingh]

"wats wrrrrrrong?"

lol...super!!!!

[AngedeMystere]

If you're still wondering, it's called the Resident Patient because it's referring to the guy - I forget his name - who hung himself and was part of that previous robbery. He was the patient of the doctor who sought Holmes' help, I believe.

Poor Mrs. Hudson. *giggle* She has to put up with so much. I loved Holmes and Watson's exchange when the latter is trying to write and the former is trying to play his violin. Holmes' quiet reluctant consent is hilarious.

[glancesherlock]

When Watson says "I have to run," I always imagine him running like the dickens as soon as he gets off camera to get away from Mrs. Hudson's fury which is sure to come. :)

[SuchNuch]

I love Burke and all, but the way he says "what are you looking for" at the beginning just sends me into hysterics. lol. it's probably just me!

[Chebmeh]

I think this is top notch acting. Especially when you compare it to the actors of today.

I love Edward Hardwicke all the same, but I think I prefer Burke, since he fits the character in the books a bit more. What do you think?

[Orypeci]

I always found Hardwicke just a little too melancholy sounding-not that he isn't a great Watson! I just prefer Burke, who always seems so cheery.

[Elanel]

Yeah, Burke seems more Watson to me.

[birgittesilverbow]

LMAO Watson finds the file in like six seconds. And I love the way Jeremy Brett trills his R's.

Thanks for posting!

[HolmesRocks]

If I were Mrs Hudson I would STRANGLE HOLMES! The man may be utterly brillient but he is SUCH A SLOB! LOL. Thanks for posting this.

[glancesherlock]

I neerly died of laughter when Holmes started playing behind the door and melted because I love listening to him play the violin!

[slatkasrca]

I know, I love that part!

[Richiepookinshoo]

I loved his "HA!", almost as if he sensed Watson changing the title of his writings XD

[glancesherlock]

Holmes is psychic that way.

[Helga2391]

Love the way Watson says "Thanks awfully,".

Nice video, cheers for posting.

[doctorcropcircles]

I think he's wonderful as Watson.

[Chebmeh]

He is. The perfect combination, in my eyes.

[lafemdilletante]

loved these bits from the resident patient! thank you!

[Iricsh]

Sherlock remembers me myself when I'm looking for something... I need a Watson; I love the way he says, "don't let influence you" and he does. Thanks

[PhantomAnge]

Holmes laugh at the end sent me into horrible giggles. Thank you.

[TheSleepingSage]

Same here! My mum thought I was asleep and then I burst out laughing. Holmes does love to tease his Boswell, no? ;P

[OrontesRM]

brett (behind the door): HA!

XD
