Dr. Watson addresses Sherlock Holmes (this is from the last ep of the Russian series, "Adventures of Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson", filmed from 1978-1984 or so)

"As I recall the good old days, these killers, rippers, other criminals whom you'd pursued in the last century, they seem to me innocent babes, naive lambs, compared to the wolves whom we've met recently. A person could steal a million, or to kill a wealthy uncle--those, I can understand.

Livanov, who played Sherlock Holmes in the series, receives a government award and makes a little thank-you speech:

"Dear Vladimir Vladimirovich, ladies and gentlemen, friends! I thank you, Vladimir Vladimirovich, for honoring me with this award. Recently, when you were in Chelyabinsk, you have troubled all of us when you verbalized your thoughts about the fact that perhaps you should no longer be working as the President. You know what, Vladimir Vladimirovich, if sometime you attentively raise your eyes to the sky, you will then hear a voice, "Don't even think about it." And that will be a voice of your and our great homeland, Russia. Thank you."
