This series re-creates the adventures of Conan Doyle's Victorian detective with impeccable faithfulness to the original story first published in Strand magazine during the late-19th century. Thirteen of the Holmes short stories were adapted in this series, which was followed by two sequels, Return of Sherlock Holmes and Casebook as well as several TV movie adaptations. Linda Rasmussen
