Dear friends who enjoyed Jeremy Brett as Sherlock Holmes, his first guest star, Gayle Hunnicutt, who played Irene Adler in the series first episode, “A Scandal in Bohemia” has died at 80 years old. Her Adler was superb.
I love them all. Striking Loretta Swit is a Goddess.

For fellow Granada Holmes fans:
Completely agree!
Sexual orientation and gender identity are innate; people have no more control or choice over them than they do their eye color, handedness, place of birth, etc. It’s long past time to do away with archaic, disproven, and harmful beliefs. It is NOT a “lifestyle choice”, “an abomination”, “disgusting”, “unnatural”, “degenerates”, or a “sin”. LGBTQIA people have the right to live their lives free of discrimination, ignorance, fear, shame, and violence. People’s civil rights, safety, dignity, and humanity are much more important than your “deeply held religious beliefs” are. LGBTQIA people exist and are valuable members of society.

I am often asked if I feel Life at Collinwood to be stressful. Well, of course! My first wife was a Phoenix, my second a literal witch, and my wife to be, the former Victoria Winters, is now several years older than I, after multiple travels through time.

You’re allowed! We have our preferences! I’m an old school Granada fan, and fell in love with the show forever when Jeremy leaped over the sofa and told Watson that he couldn’t have come at a better time! That along with Charles Gray as Mycroft, Eric Porter as a genuinely fearsome Moriarty, and I was hooked!
But now I need to plunge into the radio versions…
