For many people Jeremy Brett was, and remains, the quintessential Sherlock Holmes, featured in the Granada series for the Independent Television Network. Following a thirty year career in film, TV, and Theatre, this was the role that brought him to a much deserved international fame. His outstanding success as the remarkable genius detective would forever link him with the role much as Basil Rathbone had been fifty years earlier. However, his career covered thirty years on stage, on film and on television before he was offered the role which was to seal his reputation as a great actor.
With a foreword from David Burke who played Granada's inaugural Dr. John H. Watson alongside Brett in the series, this book is a comprehensive review of Jeremy's career on stage and screen. It contains hundred of rarely seen and some exclusive photographs with the kind permission of the Brett family, Granada Studios and many others.
