Another entertaining episode featuring a brutal murder that needs the expertise of Sherlock Holmes to help bring the facts to light.
It begins in a wealthy manor where the lord of the house has been found dead from being hit over the head with a fire-poker. The lady of the house was a witness as she described to Holmes and the police that she walked in on three men robbing the house. She advised that she was beaten and tied up before her husband entered the room for her rescue. But instead, her husband was killed and the men left after stealing all the silver.
Holmes hears the story but seems interested in the woman's account of the story that involved the three men taking a drink out of the glasses on the counter. There is something to this part of the story that mesmerizes Holmes to the point of returning to the manor and again talking to the injured lady. And as we know when Holmes goes in for a second account of the story, the walls of fiction will be revealed.
Another fine episode featuring Jeremy Brett as the always interesting actor playing Sherlock Holmes. Jeremy is brilliant as his tics and facial expressions are just as compelling as the character he portrays. Good Watch.
