One thing that Himself and I bonded on was our feelings about the Rathbone holms we thought he was fun but hated the idea of Watson being stupid. At least Bretts was reasonable.
Yes. I really hated the versions of Watson and Lestrade in those, though I really enjoyed BR. And, yes, the Watson in the Jeremy Brett version was a vast improvement, though too old. Whatever quibbles I have about Jude Law's Watson (which are minor) and Martin Freeman's, at least they get the age about right. I think I like Law's Watson best, which given that I generally don't enjoy his work, is saying a lot for how close he comes to the John Watson in my head.
