Blog2005 ≫ Like Sherlock Holmes bumming Watson...

Been meaning to write about this for a while, but keep forgetting... VERY exciting TV news, there's to be a new adaptation of Sherlock Holmes, starring Stephen Fry and Hugh Laurie! Their take on Jeeves and Wooster was one of the best series ever to be on TV, we still watch the DVD's quite often even though the tales are so familiar... Hopefully this will do the same for Holmes.

IMDB has nothing1, and this fan site says "unconfirmed"2 though this story from last year, shows it was being planned a while back... Clare SWEARS she's read somewhere that "The Sign of Four" is in post-production... Good to read on that beeb story that it's Stephen Fry who'll be playing Holmes and Hugh Laurie to be faithful sidekick Doctor Watson, and not the other way around...

UPDATE: This never happened then... That "bumming" thing is from a Goldie Lookin' Chain song btw.
