Re: The Case of the Silk Stocking

PBS ran the new BBC Sherlock Holmes production The Case of the Silk Stocking last night, which was enjoyable for what it was. Rupert Everett struck me as too young to portray Holmes at the stage of his life implied, but that’s forgivable. The design of the police station seemed too parallel to CSI: and Without a Trace. I liked Neil Dudgeon’s Lestrade the most— he’d make a great Claud Eustace Teal.

Rebecca Eaton of WGBH/PBS served as one of the film’s Executive Producers, a role played during the peerless Jeremy Brett Granada series.
