It is no wonder that fans adore the early years of Sherlock, after re-watching the first episode I was once again drawn back into the magic that was created when Sherlock first debuted. I cannot throw enough plaudits at 'A Study in Pink,' it's intelligent, funny, dramatic, bursting with energy, and just generally fabulous in every possible way. The whole premise and setup are beyond genius, I love how the scene was set, with introductions and back story.
Jeremy Brett will always be Sherlock Holmes to me, but Cumberbatch is Sherlock, a new and updated version, his performance was simply iconic.
I found Series Four a bit of a disappointment on the whole, finding it somewhat self indulgent, none of that here, yes it's clever, but not smug.
Superb production values, amazing script, captivating performances, in particular from Phil Davies, what a stellar talent that man is.
Virtually perfect. 10/10
