Sherlock Holmes was created by Arthur Conan Doyle in 1897 and he became the world's most famous detective. He is the most portrayed character in all literature with thousands of depictions in films, tv, theatre and cartoons. Joolz visits locations connected with the BBC Sherlock starring Benedict Cumberbatch and also the Guy Ritchie Robert Downey Junior version. We tell the story of how Sherlock Holmes came about and ended up facing his nemesis Professor Moriarty at the Reichenbach Falls. There is also mention Irene Adler known as The Woman who got the better of Holmes and we meet the actor playing Holmes in The Hound of the Baskervilles at The Lost Estate. It's a high pace, frenetic whirl around London.

Another classic, Joolz. Terrific video, be well best from Montreal to Lou & Simon too!
"I say Holmes, why have you painted the front door yellow?"
"Lemon entry my dear Watson"
😂😂😂😂😂
One of my cousins used to tell a ruder version of that joke. 🥴
Jeremy Brett personified Sherlock Holmes. Brett's iteration is Sherlock in his purest form, a disarming genius obsessed with unraveling even the thorniest mystery, perfectly capturing the detective's mercurial genius.
He studied Sherlock Homes very deeply to the point where he struggled to separate his own personality & stayed in character for weeks on end. Jeremy Brett should’ve been knighted for his services to acting. He was / is a national treasure 🇬🇧.
Jeremy Brett rises above all others in his Holmes portrayal.
Granada studios seemed to be meticulous in making sure the scenery, clothing, and overall haunting atmosphere was of the late Victorian era. Dr. Watson did not seem to be a comedic foil as much as how Nigel Bruce portrayed him (I have not read the original books (yet) so I don't know how Dr. Watson was portrayed).
@@RighteousReverendDynamite I've been reading the books lately, they're fantastic. The Nigel Bruce take is way off.
@@RighteousReverendDynamite The Granada Watson is true to the books. A man of above average intelligence & resource, whom Holmes depends upon for his practicality and good nature.
I was fortunately enough to see Brett and Hardwick on stage in The Secret of Sherlock Holmes. Not only were they brilliant on stage, but both gentlemen were very kind and accommodating to the fans, even when they must have been exhausted.
We lived on Manchester Street, parrallel to Baker Street in the 70s. Saturday mornings, out shopping on Baker Street (before this mock-up was built) and informing American tourists who were looking for 221b that in fact Sherlock Holmes was a character of fiction. Over half didn't believe us, including a woman who burst into tears and ran off to look for a policeman!
Happy Days indeed...
Jeremy Brett was by far the best portrayal; Basil Rathbone is next.
RDjr is next best.
Another glorious trip back in time with the effervescent Joolz Guides team. Don't ever change.
What is Sunday morning without a Jools guide,& one about my favorite fictional character
Jeremy Brett was the best Holmes. End of discussion as far as I'm concerned, Joolz. Great video as always - loving your work.
Sherlock Holmes is what got me interested in London so many years ago. I watched Jeremy Brett's portrayal in the 80s and 90s with my family, and his death was devastating. So glad you've covered SH!
I was recently in London and found the Sherlock Holmes pub on Northumberland Street, which is an absolutely fascinating place, well worth investigating. I've been waiting for Joolz to do this video for ages. Great work, my dear Joolz.
As a child, I did send a letter to 221b Baker Street. No one in my family had the guts to tell me he is not real since they knew I would be crushed. Obviously I figured it out later and can't forget the shock and sadness went through my body. I was the victim of the Sir Arthur's masterpiece writing and Jeremy Brett's genius acting. Love this episode!
Great adventure, Joolz!
I've always loved Jeremy Brett's portrayal of Holmes and sadly he was taken from us much too soon.
Sherlock Holmes. ‘The man who never lived and will never die.’
Christopher Lee played Holmes 3 times, played Mycroft to Robert Stephens' Holmes & Sir Henry Baskerville to Peter Cushing's Holmes, as well as reading many of the stories for audio books. Tom Baker's Doctor did a tribute to Holmes in The Talons of Weng Chiang; Baker went on to play Holmes himself in a version of Hound of the Baskervilles. Baker also played Holmes on stage in The Mask of Moriarty.
"The game's afoot!" What a super Sunday afternoon with Joolz and the Baker Street Irregulars! Thank you, Joolz and team, for another brilliant video tour!
Jeremy Brett will always be my Sherlock. Think I need to visit some of these places
Growing up, I had seen the Basil Rathbone movies on TV, but truly got into Holmes with Brett's version. For the past few months, I've been listening to the stories, watching Brett again, and even surprised myself when I found a DVD of the Granada version while packing for a move. My son was a young teen and also a fan of the Sherlock series, so we were both thrilled to visit the Baker Street site many years ago.
Joolzy, the game's afoot! Conan Doyle was initially friendly with Houdini who explained how fraudulent mediums and spiritualists worked their tricks. Despite this Conan Doyle remained a believer and they eventually fell out over it. Conan Doyle's wife producing a long message supposedly from Houdini's dead mother in perfect English rather than Hungarian didn't help.
I wanted to include this and more but it’s always tricky trying to balance what will appeal to everyone. It’s an amazing story!
@@Joolzguides Anyone who wanted to delve deeper into Conan Doyle and Sherlock will have watched Lucy Worsley’s excellent documentary.
True. It's hard to believe that ACD could fall for such obvious trickery. BTW, Houdini was also taken aback by trance-induced mentions of Christianity and symbols of the Cross when the Weiszes were Jewish.... oops!
The bizarre thing is that Holmes is the epitome of logical deduction but Conan Doyle became more and more involved with spiritualism and eventually moved to the Crowborough and the New Forest as he was convinced that woodland fairies and elves were real.
Yes, a very odd contradiction indeed.
I'm glad he didn't really incorporate spiritualism into the Holmes stories. It would have damaged Holmes' whole persona!
"Funnily enough, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle was a Free Mason." Not so exceptional my dear Watson as the occult has always been de rigueur in certain elevated circles. It's interesting how various adaptations of Sherlock Holmes run the gamut of genres; from action, comedy and drama with each generation stamping its own imprint on his character - some of which are very weird indeed. Great tour, as ever, Joolz.
I know that my dad would had enjoyed this video because he asked for Joolz guide to make an episode a while back . His favorite was Jeremy Brett and I did enjoy rewatching those episodes with him. We would also watch and rewatch the two movies with Downey and Law. Besides Tolkien , Conan's famous detective was his favorite. He did buy the hat and my mom did give him his calabash pipe for Christmas. He read from other authors vision of Holmes. I kinda wish this came sooner so he could have seen it. Miss you dad ✝
Robert Downey Jr is definitely my favourite Sherlock Holmes. Another fab video Joolz.
5:14 in 2011 wife and I took our first trip outside of the USA. Met up with an Internet friend that took us on a tour. At the Spot where this video is, we happened to walk through the filming production of Sherlock. We had not watched British television so we’re totally unaware of the TV series. But we got our picture at the phone booth at the spot in the that you see in the spot in the video. And it was in a season where I think someone died from a fall or something. But it’s right there in one of the most recent Cumberbatch Sherlock episodes.
Best program on TH-cam we enjoy it so much. Thank you, lools 😊
I'm a SH fan so this was a wonderful surprise that you've featured Conan Doyle's London. Thanks so much!
Jeremy Brett is the greatest Sherlock Holmes of them all. His stories are the closet to the originals. And they are on TH-cam
Basil Rathbone is my go to Sherlock Holmes.
The Speckled Band, the Hound of the Baskervilles and The League of Red Haired Men are the stories I've read that stick in my mind.
Thanks so much for doing this particular episode on Sherlock Holmes. I am one of those followers. Back in the mid 1980s my family and I visited England. It was my first time in England and in fact my first time across the Atlantic. We spent 7 weeks travelling all over England. We should have planned more time for London but we gave it several days. We each had one place we particularly wanted to visit. My husband wanted to visit Greenwich our son wanted to visit Hamley's and I wanted to visit the Sherlock Holmes Pub. Back then I don't think there were as many Sherlock Holmes locations as there are now. We did take a London cab up to Baker St. and I think we saw the location of 221B but I don't recall there being any people around at all. We had to hurry because we had a reservation for dinner at the Sherlock Holmes Pub and we didn't want to miss that. Too bad we didn't have your guide book back then. I had read all the Sherlock Holmes stories many many times. One of my favourite TV series was the one with Jeremy Brett - seemed very authentic. I also liked the Benedict Cumberbatch / Martin Freeman very modern version of Sherlock Holmes until it started to get rather weird toward the end. I liked the way they depicted his reasoning of problems. My grandfather studied medicine at Queens College in Belfast and also at the University of Edinburgh. I don't know if Dr. Bell was still lecturing there when my grandfather was a student. It would have been in the late 1800s or early 1900s. Sadly my grandfather did not complete his education because he fell in love with a Catholic girl and they ran away to Canada.
Jeremy Brett will always be the best
Basil Rathbone will always be the "real" Holmes to me!
Definitely
Jeremy Brett, please.
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle came to Staffordshire on his travels collecting stories of murder and mystery for his books. The murder of Christina Collins on the canal in Rugeley Staffordshire was of such interest to him, he visited the Globe Public House in Rugeley, shortly after the horrific event took place. Poor Christina was laid out in a back room of the pub, and it is still there today.. the pub, not her body! 😳 This tragic story is known locally by "The bloody steps", a set of steps near to the spot where Christina's lifeless body was found floating in "the cut." Reputedly, if you visit this spot on the anniversary of Christina's murder, you'll see blood on the steps. 😬Christina is buried in the churchyard of St Augustines Church in Rugeley and you can visit there, to pay her your respects. This story was utilised as an inspector Morse novel "The Wench is Dead".
Always happy to see Jules turn up on my phone
My favorite is a quirky version called "They Might Be Giants" with George C. Scott as Holmes and Joanne Woodward as his reluctant Dr. Watson. It is hard to explain, but is a gentle comedy with look at delusional insanity. It's one of my favorite nobody's ever heard of movies.
Some people think pirates are fictional and Sherlock Holmes was a real person 😅
😂😂
Sherlock Holmes was a pirate
He was real, he married miss Marple. Remember?
I’ve spoken to Americans who actually think that’s the case. 🧐
He is real. He lives in Baker Street number 221 b.
Jules I don’t usually get you same day. I lived in Newham and Tower Hamlets for 5 years. Your vids of London remind me of my time there, in the best way.
I came to this channel because I love London and wanted to improve my English! Now I love you & your tours ❤ Thank you for your great work. Many greetings from Lübeck/Germany
It's coming along very nicely
@@chriswalton4955 thank you very much 😁
My wife and I where just in London to visit with my brother and his wife and we went to see Tom Carradine's Cockney sing-A-Long. We all enjoyed it, thanks for the tip. They live in the Seven Dials area and didn't know about it. I turned them on to your page and left them your book. They have done several of your walks already.
Thank you, thank you for this film ❤❤❤ From Polish SH fan with love.
Joolz's channel is the best one for those who love London, but can't afford a trip there. Or who do, and want to have a real life experience of the place. I enjoyed this video very much, and now I'm looking forward to another literary favourite: Agatha Christie.
We here in America can also thank Sherlock Holmes for one of the most famous quips when somebody says something obvious "no sh*t, Sherlock!"
Common here too. I wonder who started it🤔
Jeremy Brett was an uncanny version of Holmes.
How timely as I've just started rereading all the Sherlock Holmes stories - Thanks Joolz! And the best Holmes on the screen...Elementary my dear Joolz - Jeremy Brett.
These are much better to watch than the rubbish they put on regular TV. Great work Joolz. How about doing a James Bond related walk through London.
Thank you for the upload joolz, hope all is well sir 👍
Another totally enjoyable episode! Your mum was certainly very proud of you and Lou.
If there is one character who represents the subtext to Sherlock Holmes, it is Mycroft (Holmes), who in the words of his younger brother, ''Occasionally, he (Mycroft) is the British government''. It is Mycroft who can keep a track on everything Sherlock does as the proto-British Intelligence...draw your own conclusion....
Mark Gatiss as Mycroft in the Benedict Cumberbatch Sherlock was absolutely brilliant.
Hugh Laurie plays a great version of Holmes, although they did rename him House, and Watson became Wilson, but they did keep his drug addiction.
Interesting how many fictional characters are spawned by a fictional character, isn't it? The Dr. Who inspiration theory was interesting, as well.
I know this is pretty out of the blue, but thank you for making this content after all this time. My mom and I used to watch your videos, making long plans to go to some of the places youve taken us in these episodes. Ovarian cancer took her last november, and its always nice to come back and follow your tours for a bit. If I ever do make it to London, one of your tours is at the top of my lists of things to do, if merely just for mom. Your reach is wide Joolz, and your passion and love for your work has helped make memories for so very many. Please, by all means, keep carrying on =)
This was amazing!!! Loved this so much! Wish I lived in London right now! One day!
We love your videos. This one's is great! Thx for making these. Keeping London alive for us.
My favorite Sherlock Holmes is Jeremy Brett. I believe wholeheartedly he embodied Sherlock Holmes more than anyone else who ever portrayed him.
BTW... Thank you for doing this episode.. I really loved it!
Splendid! A great episode, and, for me, a favorite subject. The interplay / cutting twixt you and LIL is great and adds to the overall exposition. Loved it. Do more SOON!
Thanks....we argue all the time so it's lucky I don't include those b bits! 😂
I can get through any locked door with a piece of fruit. There's nothing complicated about it. It's Lemon entry.
I can't believe none of the passersby mentioned Jeremy Brett!!! Definitely THE best Sherlock Holmes. I made my German husband watch the Jeremy Brett Sherlock Holmes series with me and he agrees now.
Doyle had recounted a lecture by Prof. Dr. Joseph Bell at Edinburgh University Medical School in which he asked students to figure out what was the substance in a vial of fluid by smell, sight, and taste. He dipped his finger into the vial and then stuck his finger in his mouth, making a contorted face as to indicate how vile or bitter the unknown substance was. The vial was passed around and each student tried tasting it with their finger after dipping; each almost yacked. Then Dr. Bell sadly told the student that their powers of observation were still very poor; he explained that he dipped his index finger into the liquid but licked his MIDDLE finger. This story is told in almost every med school. Sometimes the story is changed to the substance being urine and the med student had to see if the patient was diabetic or not.... (as that why in Greek, diabetes mellitus, means "to pass through [like a siphon] (urinate abnormally in large amounts), sweet".... and doctors used to taste urine to diagnose it. Thank God that is not done anymore.
Jeremy Brett is the ultimate Sherlock Holmes 👍
What a wonderful episode. Thanks for this and for all the time it took both of you to put this together!
Yesss two of three interviewed visitors in the queue said "Livanov"! 😎💪🫵 And no wonder as even the Queen admitted that Vassily Livanov was the best living Holmes of all times and gave him a British national award for his role. By the way ,my favourite and first route in London I took when I was there. I even got tears in my eyes when I heard the main theme from the Soviet film in the entrance🎉
Favourite Holmes: Jules, you read my mind! Which is incredible since you recorded this long before I saw it! I agree - Basil Rathbone is *the* classic Sherlock Holmes, but the American Elementary series put wonderful twists on the premise with Lucy Liu as Dr. Jane Watson, and Natalie Dormer as Jamie Moriarty, and this Moriarty had also pretended to be Irene Adler.
A very enjoyable video to watch on a Sunday morning.
Outstanding and fascinating, Joolz. Thank you.
What a wonderful video that was. Thank you Joolz
Wonderful! Really enjoyed this one!!!
This was a delightful production Sir! Well done! Thank you
Jeremy Brett was undoubtedly the best Holmes!
Best one yet , more please
This is utterly one of your best ever videos! 👍
To think that Dr. Watson's backstory was a de-mobbed veteran of the wars in Afghanistan during Queen Victoria's time. A hundred years later, in the updated contemporary versions, his backstory is still the same, de=mobbed army doctor who served in Afghanistan.
Should make you think.
I was very pleased a number of years ago that one of William Gillette's Sherlock Holmes films was found and restored, and that I got to see it at the San Francisco Silent Film Festival. That role made him quite a star.
I've never seen one!
Sherlock Holmes is classic! 🤩🎩
Fabulous episode. Joolz rocks.
Best production on TH-cam!
One of your best Joolz!
Another joyful video from Joolz. Most interesting.
Wooohoooo!!!! Another great video Joolz, really enjoyed it, nice one.
Have watched for years, Best one yet. Top hole old man.
The best Holmes and Watson by far, Peter Cook & Dudley Moore in their rendition of The Hound of the Baskervilles
My favourite Joolz episode! 🕵🏼
Sherlock Holmes and Joolz what a great Sunday evening!❤ Thank you so much! If I will ever get to London I will definitely visit all these places!
The use of that central in-focus/ periphery blurred camera effect at the beginning is cool. Makes normal cityscapes look like models.
man i've missed these videos - another awesome nugget
I met Martin Freeman at a grocery store in our small town just east of Toronto two years ago. He was so sweet and very handsome. He said he was filming close by but didn't disclose where. He was kind enough to listen to me babble on. This is a great video Joolz. I'm on my way back to London for the third time is a few weeks. It's such a brilliant city
Thanks for this Joolz. Brilliant film! Now spending the afternoon watching the Cumberbatch Holmes series 😎😎😎👍
Brilliant one of your best
Great video joolz can't wait to come back to London!
bloody great, excellent episode!
Ahh Sunday evening viewing in Sydney, love it
Joolz, Your travels are always such a pleasant way to start s Sunday morning. PIP PIP!
This was one of my favorite videos of yours. We love when your sister makes an appearance. You both were wonderful as Holmes and Watson. Great fun, informative and of course beautiful London locales. Keep up the amazing work. Thanks for brightening our Sunday morning.
What a great video. I enjoyed every second. Have a great summer.
This film is so very interesting, Joolz. Very well presented indeed, a lot of the information about Sherlock Holmes and Arthur Conan Doyle, I knew nothing about. The followers are keen indeed, and the locations associated are completely stunning. Many thanks for this presentation.
So tickled to have you show up in my notifications yesterday. Well done!
Love this episode ! When I first arrived in Canada from England I was living in remote place in the depths of winter and fortunately there was a library with all the Holmes stories to get me through 😉
Great narrative and film work🎉
What a treat what a video 🤩 Exelent Joolz & co 💫💫💫
Thanks, you do the best videos!
As always - delightful, informative and compulsory viewing (and some nostalgia for my 13 years of London life some many years ago) thanks again : )
I visited the Reichenbach falls and the town of Meiringen in Switzerland, its a must for any Holmes fan and there is much to see. Really enjoyed your video, thank you.
None of those ppl mentioned jeremy brett, the best Holmes ever! I grew up in northwest Florida and the adventures of sherlock holmes used to air on public television. My dad was a HUGE holmes fan ( i became one as well) and we would always watch together. He had a paperback copy of the complete sherlock holmes from his college days that wad falling apart from being reread so much lol.
