I started Watching the Sherlock Holmes series on PBS. In "The Copper Beeches" Sherlock is smoking an old Churchwarden (or almost) at breakfast. It goes out and he wanders over to the fireplace, grabs a lump of coal and lays it atop the pipe to light it. Way to fuck up a vintage pipe Jeremy!
By the way, I read the stories before I ever watched the series. I perceived Sherlock as being a bit overbearing, sure. But I never thought him to be the enormous dick that he's portrayed as in the series. |
