Sherlock actors together in non-Sherlock shows
Not sure where to put this, feel free to move it if necessary,
I was watching a Miss Marple last night, Murder Is Easy, with the delicious BC playing her offsider (lucky old girl!) when who should pop up as the village bobby but Russell Tovey, who, of course, plays Henry Knight in The Hounds of Baskerville.
Have you spotted any others?

Re: Sherlock actors together in non-Sherlock shows
You could say Benedict & Jonny Lee Miller in Frankenstein, seeing as they are both Sherlocks.

Re: Sherlock actors together in non-Sherlock shows
Not sure if it's exactly what you were looking for but Hugh Laurie plays 'House' who is loosely based off of the character of Sherlock Holmes and here we see him play the father of our BBC Sherlock.
The show was called 40 something.

LOL, remember we thought that was the answer to that really random question on the Scavenger Hunt?

Re: Sherlock actors together in non-Sherlock shows
I think Benedict and Mark Gatiss worked together in Starter for Ten

But the thing is, we've taken away all the things that can possibly have happened, so I suppose the only thing that's left, even though it seems really weird, must be the thing that did happen, in fact. (Miss Marple)

Yep. Benedict and Andrew Scott have performed together on stage, I believe.

He was in Appointment with Death. Both Andrew Scott and Rupert Graves were in Garrrow's Law. Rupert played Sir Arthur Hill and Andrew played Captain Jones.

Re: Sherlock actors together in non-Sherlock shows
Well, having just watched 'Hawking' I noticed that John Sessions and a Benedict performed. Benedict as Stephen Hawking and John as Professor Sharma. John played the brother of Connie Prince in A Study in Pink.

Re: Sherlock actors together in non-Sherlock shows
Also, not an actor I know, but the screenplay for Hawking was...Steven Moffat.

Re: Sherlock actors together in non-Sherlock shows
Just finished watching 'Murder is Easy' with Benedict and Russell Tovey. Loved the motorbike scenes. Luke Fitzwilliam. Thought Russell was actually rather good in this too.
