There is only one Sherlock Holmes and that is JEREMY BRETT!!!!
Amen. I enjoyed Rathbone but Lyle is correct (did I just say that?) before JB got ill - he was Holmes. He used to carry a book of the stories about with him ensuring the dialogue was exact. The illustrations often made it too screen. Gotta love that dedication to the canon. He had the height & the hollow look.

As much as I like robert downey jr, I don't see him as Holmes...at least he'll have the drug experience.
