moonlightnrain just pointed me at this Sherlock/Watson vid and it's so good I have to share, especially with you,

And if I haven't rec'ed it before, allow me to point you at this SGA McShep vid The Tree which is one of the best videos I've ever seen period. I mean just gorgeous, and I need a copy of the song...

And my friend J-'s band seems to be doing very well in Japan, oddly enough.

Thank you. I'm having a craptastic day today, and this made me smile.

Yay!

Holmes/Watson = WIN. 8)

Oh, cool! I didn't know you were a Holmes fan! I'm something of a fanatic myself, so it was a very pleasant surprise to find this entry and vid rec. I sometimes have a problem with Holmes vids set to modern music, but this one worked for me. I love the wonderful assortment of Granada clips, especially as Jeremy Brett is my favourite Holmes.

Oh, and I have to mention the SGA McShep vid too! I think The Tree is outstanding! I'll definitely have to add it to my own list of vid recs!

Jeremy Brett was Holmes, no question about it. I own the entire series and have made a habit of watching "The Blue Carbuncle" every Xmas, because it's just the perfect way to spend the holiday :)

And I've watched and re-watched "The Tree" a bunch of times, and every time I do I think "God there should be fic for this...because oh how I want to read that story."

Uh, speaking of which, when are you going to be posting your next fic segment? Hmm?

LOL! I watch "The Blue Carbuncle" every Christmas too! Oh, and I watch the Basil Rathbone version of The Hound of the Baskervilles as part of my Halloween viewing. *g* I probably own more movies and books on Sherlock Holmes than any other subject. As far as Jeremy Brett goes, I have all the episodes and movies that were made up to about 1990. I can't stomach anything Granada made after that.

I agree with you that "The Tree" would make a wonderful fic. Maybe someone will be inspired by it. As for my own fic, I plan to post 7(a) in the next couple of weeks. I think 7(b) will have to wait until February. Uh...I'm recovering from a bad cold and just haven't been as productive lately...

I hear ya. It's hard watching the later stuff and seeing how sick Jeremy was during the filming of it. Have you ever read "The 7% Solution"? If not I highly recommend it, not the movie mind you, the book. Oh and if you haven't been, at some point in your life you must make the pilgrimage to London and do the SH walking tour of the West End. It's like Mecca to Holmes fans and well worth the sore legs, believe me.

A couple of weeks, ok I think I can wait that long :)

I have read "The 7% Solution" and it's one of my favourite Holmes pastiches. I also enjoyed Nicholas Meyer's "West End Horror" and "The Canary Trainer," though I don't think they're as good as "The 7% Solution".

While I've been to Baker Street and the Sherlock Holmes Museum, I haven't done the West End walking tour! In fact, I didn't even know there was one! I'll definitely book myself a spot next time I go to London! :-)

Oh, and when I say a couple of weeks for the next installment of my fic, I'm guessing it will be closer to about a week or a week & 1/2. Unfortunately, it will be a shorter part with only the 7(a) material, but I'm hoping that 7(b) won't be too far behind it.

Yay! That means even less of a wait than I'd anticipated. You've just made my day!

Sherlock/Watson! O the joy! I've become a bit of a fan in recent years and was delighted to find this vid on your LJ. Thanks for posting it!
