Even in the UK, hotel telly is rubbish.
I was reduced to watching quite the worst Sherlock Holmes TV Movie I have ever seen.
It starred Edward Woodward. I like Edward Woodward. But as Holmes? *shudder*.
Anthony Andrews was Moriarty. Moriarty, it turns out, is an only-slightly-more-embittered Sebastian Flyte, cast back a generation.
This is it:

They are enjoying themselves fully, immersed in the terrible, terrible dialogue. Putting the subtitles up added to my enjoyment. I could read the line before they said it, and try to imagine how they were going to spit it out.
