Holmes disguise in this one is awesome!

I like this episode because the original story by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle was a good one, and also this episode was the first aired(not sure about taping order) in the series, which means Jeremy Brett still looks thin and healthy, and David Burke was Watson(as we know from the credits above). Together they made a great representation of Doyle's characters.

David Burke was the first Watson in this Granada series and all these early ones are really enjoyable. Not that I don't love Edward Hardwicke as Watson also, but sometimes I think the first episodes with Burke as Waton are the best.

And of course this is the episode with the great Irene Adler, "of dubious and questionable memory."
