Great news! This series always had excellent production values, but the DVD's are a but murky.

Certainly excited for this....I was always a tad troubled by a lot of the liberties taken with some of the source material, but then I am a bit of a Hol;mes purist by my own admission....but the show was never less than flawlessly made, and Brett was just superb as this incarnation of the great detective.

The first few series took very few liberties, it was only till later, and especially with the TV movies that they went into a different direction with some of the stories.
But still riveting. And Brett remains the definitive Sherlock Holmes for me.
