This is an outstanding run, The Return of Sherlock Holmes is in my humble opinion the best run for Brett, and the newly installed Edward Hardwicke.
It's a superbly produced series, with energy and vigour. I would argue that we see Brett at his very best, he's healthy and bursting with charisma and personality. Edward Hardwicke has replaced David Burke, and whilst he wasn't perhaps as charming, he was more the character in the book, perhaps the better fit, that's not to take anything away from Burke, he was fantastic.
There isn't a single weak link in this series, however my personal favourites are Devil's Foot, The Empty House and The Musgrave Ritual, although every single episode has terrific merits.
Many wonderful guest appearances, two of my favourites being Dennis Quilley and Patricia Hodge, you could pick from a list full however.
How it should be done. 10/10
