Sherlock Holmes (TV-1955) THE RELUCTANT CARPENTER (S1E21)

[@user-oj5bw7sl8p]

What a superb episode of an excellent show! Strongly recommend to all people, who love Holmes.

[@elizabethschaeffer9543]

I love the chemistry class scene with Le Strade and Wilkins! Perfect back and forth timing! This is the only Sherlock Holmes series that gives these two so much fun. We can enjoy it along with them.

[@greatmatth3093]

I so enjoy the character Sgt Wilkins. He's so smart and humble. He adds to the humour of the show. Love it!

[@eliotreader8220]

shouldn't Wilkins have been in plain clothes if he was working with the inspector?

[@ronaldmessina4229]

I personally do love 💗 all of the Sherlock Holmes movies, the english accent, no (dirty language whatsoever) and I do hope that these movies 🎥 will NEVER be out of style 😊

[@im-gi2pg]

The English have plenty of “dirty language.” There was a censorship dept back then.

[@MadderMel]

These Sherlock Holmes movies with this cast are quite fun to watch , very short and to the point !

[@WolfMaiden11]

Although Wilkins isn't present in every episode, he's quite adorable in his open mindedness when it comes to working with Holmes, and keeps what he learned from him for future use.

[@suecollins3246]

I think Wilkins is brilliant. He made Inspector Le Strade think that it was his - Inspector Le Strade's - idea to go and get help from Sherlock Holmes.

[@jamesl9371]

Yeah

[@patriciajrs46]

These are always great stories. Thanks.

[@gailwilkinson8848]

I have seen all series of Sherlock Holmes, but have only just come across the series with these actor's Howard and Crawford..and in my opinion I think they are the best, they have brilliant humour installed in them and all the actors seem to "Jell" together so we'll

[@gailwilkinson8848]

Exactly what feel too..

I love to watch these blokes perform over and over.

[@stangets]

I will repeat again. I love these Blokes.

[@glennhoddle10]

25:34 Love that shot of the 3 of them with Watson's hand on Holmes' shoulder and Holmes's hand on Lestrade's shoulder. A splendid crime fighting trio.

[@charmainebriggs4068]

Love these oldies so clean and descent and quite entertaining. I'm in quarantine with no TV only my phone so thank you

[@piehound]

What you mean is DECENT. *Descent* means "a journey downward." No charge for the English lesson.

[@danadavis6097]

I'm a huge Sherlock Holmes fan from when I was a young girl. These are the absolute best! Didnt know there was any other Holmes and Watson. The actors are phenomenol! All of them. Thanks so much pizzaflix for these! I'm so delighted!

[@user-oj5bw7sl8p]

This show is famous for it's witty dialogs, perfect actors & real Victorian spirit.

This is such a fun and enjoyable series. They nailed it with just the right amount of humor. Perfect for a lazy day with a good cup of coffee. Thanks, PF. The less known films you upload are so well chosen! :)

[@feralbluee]

i never realized how well written (by Sheldon Reynolds) these Holmes stories are - good twists, plenty of humor, and mystery. not to mention, of course, the acting, direction, and all the production (also Sheldon Reynolds) choices. really a charming show :} . . . and Holmes, Watson, and Lastrade tiredly walk towards the back of the set. . .

[@SavetheEarth2000]

I totally agree with you this is the best Dr. Watson I have ever seen. No actor has this ingenuity and lightness in performance like him.

[@feralbluee]

[@morningatsea]

Yes, I realized the magic Sheldon Reynolds creates in less than half an hour after watching several movies in this series. So much so well presented in such a brief time frame. Truly outstanding!

[@Тамара-ю7в1ц]

Какой страшный фильм! Я так перенервничала, когда смотрела. Сперва я переживала, как бы Уилсон и Лейстрейд не взорвали квартиру, которую снимали Холмс и Ватсон, занимаясь химией, в которой они ничего не смыслят. Потом я переживала, успеют ли найти место очередного запланированного взрыва, потом я опасалась, как бы они все там не взорвались вместе с преступником, а потом -- как бы этот портфель не взорвался в руках Холмса, когда он его бросал. И это при том, что я знала, что все должно закончиться хорошо, потому что впереди еще есть серии! Как велика сила искусства!!!

[@feralbluee]

part of what makes this a good series is the interplay of the characters including the lesser parts. they're reactions are included. it's not just the main characters! :}

[@doug1863]

[@acelynfury9992]

Thank you for this Awesome Great Sherlock Holmes movie.🙂

[@TheKinlock]

ive thoroughly enjoed these episodes, after finishing all the jeremy brett episodes thanks

[@cindymckee6704]

I wonder how this Watson would work with Brett.

[@arnepianocanada]

Ron Howard's father was superb English actor Leslie Howard. You can see the likeness. I like some of the lighter touches in this (somewhat uneven) series and prefer this Dr. Watson to the fool portrayed by Nigel Bruce. Alongside classic Basil Rathbone, Howard seems a more human, fun and friendly Holmes though rather less imposing.

[@victoriataylor5457]

Yes Leslie was quite a good actor.His death was a tragedy, when his plane was shot down, Ronald went on to write a book about his father's death, for his death was under suspicious circumstances, I think Ronald had alot of unanswered questions about his father's death. Its quite intresting reading the information about Leslie's death. He played in many great movies Berkley Square, Of Human Bondage, Gone With the Wind ,are just a few of his father's films. and Ronald certainly followed in his father's footsteps. And yes he does resemble his father a great deal. Although I do like Basil Rathbone & Nigel Bruce, this is right up there in the category of some of the best actors, that has played Sherlock & Watson. I think if your a fan of Sherlock Holmes, you enjoy watching either.They are both good. I prefer the older episodes, the newer actors just dont seem to have what it takes, to play those parts, at least that's my opinion.But I'm just another opinion. We all have our preferences.

[@bluenetmarketing]

@William Sirman Yes, I too like Bruce's portrayal. And I agree that this series and the Rathbone series are both good. Almost all of the Holmes shows are worth the viewing. You can't go wrong with towering characters like Holmes and Watson, like peanut butter and jelly, you choose which is which.

[@doug1863]

I too like this Watson more than Bruce

[@WolfMaiden11]

@@doug1863 Same here.

[@WolfMaiden11]

Ronald Howard was the first Sherlock Holmes I watched as a child, and I found him quite charming and sweet, even though he wasn't as tall as Basil Rathbone whom I also admire, but I prefer H. Marion Crawford's portrayal of Watson.

[@vampgirl92496]

I love how Wilkins is actually more astute and smarter then the inspector, but he maintains respect for his boss

[@TheGoldfish03]

Having found this version of Sherlock Holmes I am of the opinion that Leslie Howard is by far the best Sherlock Holmes. He is very natural acting and it comes over as if he does it without trying.

[@rebeccaeddins808]

You have the wWrong Howard

[@josephjohn31]

Frigtening situation for Inspector Lestrade being supported by Holmes and Dr Watson with some funny experementing having the right security arrangements in the right track and catching the suspect tools at the right time is worth watching with interest.

[@WolfMaiden11]

Damn, talk about tense. This is one of the most tension filled episodes I've watched since The Case of the Perfect Husband.

I agree they are great fun :) and because of Pizza Flix over use of adds , I’m so happy that other people have uploaded the whole series without adds and sometimes in better quality. 😊

Own perhaps every DVD of any S Holmes video ever made. Each has a special desirable set of qualities. Also own the superbly written complete compilation of ACDoyle's novels. This book is about 10 X 16 and has footnotes for every and any detail of every S Holmes story. ACDoyle wrote other novels which are as desirable if not more entertaining than the Holmes stories.

This episode should be called "The Case of the Four Cases".

[@erbiemurat2271]

Nice bit of convoluted double chat. Interesting departure from the norm with our police friends taking control of the crime scene before the crime has been committed. Remarkableness of Holmes and Watson almost being hoisted by their own petard but not quite. Peppered with the choice slapdash comedy of the simple minded complexity of the officers of the law playing with a child's chemistry set, and then being mistaken for the real thing. And then, of course it gets serious. What a gem. .
