Perfect!

I cannot live without brainwork. What else is there to live for? Stand at the window there. Was there ever such a dreary, dismal, unprofitable world? See how the yellow fog swirls down the street and drifts across the dun-coloured houses. What could be more hopelessly prosaic and material? What is the use of having powers, Doctor, when one has no field upon which to exert them?

Re: Jeremy Brett Picture Thread

Jeremy was so agile and nimble in the first series of the Adventures.... too bad his state deteriorated later.
Still, great pic!

Re: Jeremy Brett Picture Thread

It is a shame but even when he wasn't in the best of health, he could still deliver a fine performance. He always remained in character as the master detective.

Yes, he was a real professional and a talented man.

Re: Jeremy Brett Picture Thread

He looks quite worn out and tired in those ones. I guess he had a time of depression in his bipolar disorder there.
OOT: I like your new avatar, Brett.

Re: Jeremy Brett Picture Thread

They are just comfortable with each other in every single scene, that is wonderful to see. They were friends in real life also, weren't they?

Re: Jeremy Brett Picture Thread

mrshouse, I'm glad you like my like my avatar since fits my own personal taste as I do love both "Sherlock" and the Granada series with Jeremy Brett.

I do enjoy the later episodes as much as the earlier ones. However, its not always easy to see him that way. The reason for his bloated appearance in later series is because of the lithium tablets for his depression that he took, which caused fluid rentention and ultimately took a toll on his heart. It is sad as felt that he left us way too soon. He one of the few people where I still lament his death to this day.

Here is a brave, poignant statement he made to raise awareness about manic-depression before he died

Re: Jeremy Brett Picture Thread

Jeremy Brett died on September 12, 1995 so today/yesterday (depending on your time zone) marks 20 years since the world lost this amazing man.

Let's remember some of his lighter moments as Sherlock Holmes

The video was beautiful, thank you ukaunz, for honoring Jeremy this way.
