I truly like the Holmes tales. Has anyone here noticed the brilliant similarity in a modern vein of the TV program MONK to the Holmes mileau.   Think about it---Monk is the Holms character, his nurse is the Watson pesona---and the detective is none other than a version of Lestrade---all updated in the modern era and done in a truly artistic and clever way.

Hope some of you have noted the similarity---sorry to have digressed from the canon.
