Sherlock Holmes: The Classic BBC Series Starring Douglas Wilmer [2 Discs]

"Beginning in 1964, the BBC launched a highly popular Sherlock Holmes series, adapted from the classic detective novels by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, with Douglas Wilmer as Holmes and Nigel Stock as Dr. Watson. This compilation set presents, back to back, thirteen of the fifteen episodes from the original series - everything except for The Bruce-Partington Plans and The Abbey Garage, which reportedly no longer exist.
