This is a wonderful discovery. Thank you so very much for posting one of the most kind and literate interviews it has ever been my privilege to experience. Mr. Brett was certainly the definitive Holmes, and how much passion and care he brought to his art! Rest in peace, Mr. Brett, there are so many who love and remember you.
That was best 20mins I had in long time thanks for posting this. I feel he was very underated as an actor.I remember seeing him in Rebecca I was 13 and fell in love with Maxim. Thanks again.
@hadassah179- There are 60 total stories, 4 of which were novels. So sad to hear Brett wanted to finish the canon here but we know now he never got the chance. Damn that woulda been awesome.
@hadassah179 Different people have different ideas of what "the canon" is. Doyle had originally killed Holmes off in the final problem and hadn't intended to bring him back. Public outcry eventually brought him to his senses. So it depends. There are either 24 or 56 unless you count the novels and then there are 60. Some might even count stories which were not written by Doyle. For example, the phrase "elementary, my dear Watson" never appears in Doyle's writings but is synonymous with Holmes.
