Jeremy Brett gave the definitive performance as Sherlock Holmes, on the whole the productions were very good to excellent. The Dancing men was in particular a good offering. The story is intelligent, and the episode moves along nicely, it's dark pacey very enjoyable. Holmes definitely proves his usefulness and genius, depicting a cryptic code as only he would now how. Brett as always is excellent as the lead, David Burke supplies the usual credible performance as Watson. The only negative I can think of is the character of Abe Slaney. I found his attire a little overdone and some of his dialogue is a little questionable too.
