1:58 Oh, shiny. :P

[MyHe4dIsInTheCl0ud5]

@julielaughs14 the meaning of sherlock is bright hair... that bit definitely illustrates this :)

[julielaughs14]

@MyHe4dIsInTheCl0ud5 Oh yes indeed. :D

[9ferretx]

Stomach like a bag of ferrets = LOL !

@ragdolltwisty In the book, after letting Ryder go, Holmes states: "If Horner were in danger it would be another thing, but this fellow will not appear against him, and the case must collapse"

Ryder would also presumably tell Cusack not to testify against Horner being as Holmes knows all.

[phanpiggy]

That mean old hag doesn't deserve her stone back.

[Revetnere]

did anybody saw Rider catch the stone with his right hand on 7:08?

[ragdolltwisty]

What a great and wacky episode XD One thing I don't get- if Holmes kept the carbuncle for himself, how did he prove to the police that Horner was innocent? O.o

[9ferretx]

@ragdolltwisty Like this - ( Holmes speaking ) " Inspector , Homer is innocent , and unless you release him at once I shall produce the blue carbuncle and expose how you have botched this case from the beginning , and with her Ladyship involved I'm sure it will cost you your job " .

[EuskaltelEuskadi]

3:28 that beckon is just creepy!! 0.o

[danbo1984]

fabulous ending, and more cracking incidental music; the scoring and arrangements for this series are just peerless, I hope Patrick Gowers garnered some awards

[MikeAM78]

There's actually no mention of what Holmes does with it in the story. There's certainly no specific passage where he puts it into his locked desk drawer like we see in this episode. For all we can tell in the story, it will be returned to Lady Morcar after the end of the story. The 1968 episode with Peter Cushing, however, actually ends with Holmes returning the stone to her so that she can give Peterson his reward money for finding it.

[2manynegativewaves]

Lols, what on earth was in that guys pipe for him to think it was a good idea to shove a diamond in a Goose???

[FullmetalShortOne]

Umm...Sherlock....is that diamond just gonna chill in your desk now? O.o You should, you know, return it maybe? xD Could someone clarify for me the reason why he kept it? I'm trying to remember if it says in the actual original story but my memory is failing me....

[hzy126]

@FullmetalShortOne I just re-read the end of that story, and it goes exactly as they've portrayed in this episode. So yeah, I guess he just keeps it :P

[FullmetalShortOne]

@hzy126 Huh. Yeah, I couldn't remember them giving a reason but it's been a while since I read it so I thought I had just forgotten.......that's so odd. xD I wonder why he just kept it....

[niravmaurya]

can't believe Albert Broccoli turned Jeremy Bret down for the James Bond role. Fortunate, I suppose, for the greatest portrayal of Mr. Sherlock Holmes in the history of the performing arts...

[gelert456]

@niravmaurya no offense but I'd pick Sean Connery over Jeremy Brett for James Bond any day of the week. Jeremy Brett is more suited to more serious dramatic roles rather than action films

[cliffhanger143]

"I'm not retained by the police to supply their deficiencies.." Holmes rocks!!

[amit79ful]

Sherlock always is sensitive to the poor and innocent, he leaves his meal to let the poor innocent man out of jail so that his kids can enjoy Christmas with their father.

[sherlockinaforever]

Oh this "get out" ! Wonderfully sexy !

[jawa808]

A pleasure to watch. The great Mr. Brett

[wincipoet]

cute geese ^^

[lordrandal90]

"My name is Sherlock Holmes, it is my business to know what other people don't know"

[suryalinaten10]

What a great episode! The sudden Holmes outburst against the police was completely unexpected.

[maddyreid18]

@LudwigZhi you have an excellent point.

However, as a major jeremy brett/sherlock holmes fan, I must take his side.

I mean, come on. How smart and awesome is he?

[LudwigZhi]

Does it strike anyone that Holmes may have wrongly blamed the police for defficiency in this case. It's not like in Devil's Foot or Abbey Grange where the police knows everything Holmes knows and couldn't deduce from there. In this case Holmes caught a huge break by KNOWING where the stone is and where it came from.

[Phaze252]

@LudwigZhi

They were deficient. Sure, Holmes had a substantial advantage. But the fact that the police were wrongly accusing a suspect with lack of evidence and investigation of the suspects alibi can easily make them inadequate to their job title.

Just because he was there on the day they automatically arrested him, yet the maid nor anyone else was accused. If that's not deficiency in a job, then what is?

[LaSeuleEtoile]

hahaha, looks creeeeeeeeeepy 1:56 to 2:10.

Thanks so much for posting, i LOVE Jeremy Brett :D

[naeema]
