Sherlock Holmes (Jeremy Brett) peers through a wire fence
Actor Jeremy Brett, in character as Sherlock Holmes, looks with heightened awareness through a wire fence in The Casebook of Sherlock Holmes. Brett played the famous detective in a long run of movies and series episodes on English TV from 1984 to 1994. Brett, alas, died of heart failure in 1995, aged just 61.
