The sort of made for tv production created for the Christmas schedules,which may well be the best version of this old favourite.
The plot moves forward at a good pace, cheerfully waving past any inconsistencies. All performances are likable, with Richard E Grant a stand out. The Cornish setting is used well, with good period detail.
And there is some genuine suspense and a few thrills.
A must for Holmes enthusiasts, a well crafted and enjoyable diversion for others.
