Granada's adaptation of The Man with the Twisted Lip.

This has to be one of the most original story plots I have ever seen. The unique way it is told is simply amazing.

"Are you coming? " "Of Course!" [violin] And the game is afoot!!

[@JuliBom]

"Watson...there's a hint of skepticism in your voice that gives you no credit." LOL Holmes look so different in that disguise. Plus the way that he was limping towards Watson outside of Upper Swandon Lane was quite hilarious XD

[@takeshihiraoka5310]

This captures the essence of what it must have been like in that time period. A lot more so than the other episodes. Brilliant.

[@celticlofts]

Poor old Watson he never gets to eat !!

[@SiliconBong]

Only in England would a den on iniquity have the cleanest of cobblestones :D

[@GodsWildfire]

Trippy place. Love the disguises.

[@BEVERYCUMMINS]

Some stories are not proper crimes as people asked Watson to do a proper crime story. They are so clever though.

[@johnshields6852]

I unfortunately got hooked, it is brutal, insidious drug, luckily still alive to see this.🙏

[@CSK513]

peels off false eyebrows, takes off false beard, HOLMES again

[@Chikin1ninjas]

@obiwanobiwan13 In actuality, Holmes was not addicted to opium, as it is a substance which dulls the mind, unlike cocaine which stimulates it. For Holmes to be addicted to opium would be incongruous to his character, just as alcoholism would be.

[@ShawDAMAN]

The disguises were very good for Brett usually but this one was even better than usual :D

[@textthing]

@celticlofts It's part of Holmes's Investigative Weight Watchers programme.

[@mahound9]

Interesting: A woman who has to claim that she is not a hysterical, nor given to fainting. What a different time and place this was to the present.

[@Mosflow]

THey always do a good job on the settings in this series

1:05 crotch grab, poor Watson.

[@TheGreatZurEnRaah]

@obiwanobiwan13 That would be brilliant!!!!!! I would love to see something like that. House and Holmes are both such extraordinary characters that the magnitude of their presence might be too much for viewers to be able to endure HA

[@obiwanobiwan13]

"I hope you're not smoking the substancein that pipe, Holmes." "Only to the extent necessary to merge with the surroundings." LOL How great would it be if through some miracle of time Holmes could meet his American counterpart based off him, Dr. House. Imagine it- Holmes and House working on a great murder and medical mystery with Holmes alternating cocaine and opium, House keeping up the steady stream of Vicodin pills... And both Watson and Wilson exasperated Brett and Laurie!

[@mikkel2169]

I like Mrs. St. Claire....:)

[@BEVERYCUMMINS]

totally legal , no prescription drugs back then. Still was very dangerous

[@obiwanobiwan13]

@Chikin1ninjas I know, just saying it'd be a funny duo...

[@mfjdv2020]

He's not a Malay, he's a Chinese!

[@rachelcartwright570]

Mairwen 99 : could be Chinese Malaysian.

[@hadassah179]

@sitithesecond how do u know that?

[@matero30]

Why was Watson so surprised by building bricks?

[@celticlofts]

@textthing: lol...

[@waterpimpernell]

[@mfjdv2020]

He's not a Malay, he's a Chinese!
