Holmes in your home

The History Channel pays tribute to the legendary fictional character Sherlock Holmes with a new series.



WITH STYLE Sherlock Holmes.

Sherlock Holmes, arguably one of the greatest detectives in literary history, will visit your homes from this Tuesday night.

The History Channel is starting a series, "The Adventures of Sherlock Homes", about the revered detective and his aide Dr. John Watson to be aired every Tuesday at 9 p.m.

A faithful adaptation of the original collection of stories, The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes, the show brings alive mysteries such as A Solitary Cyclist, The Speckled Band, The Naval Treaty amongst others that not only enjoy worldwide recognition but still continues to fascinate readers across the globe.

Jeremy Brett, as Holmes, successfully captures the essence of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's favourite character through his power packed performance. Joy Bhattacharjya, Senior Vice President, Programming, The History Channel, says, "From time immemorial, Sherlock Holmes has enjoyed universal appeal.

The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes is one of the most successful historically set drama series and we feel privileged to air this classic on our channel. Such programmes are in keeping with our strategy of broad-basing the channel to widen its appeal for all viewers."
