Horrendous episode - Is it a spoof? (SPOILER)
5 July 2016
Warning: Spoilers
(SPOILER ALERT - I DON'T TELL THE STORY BUT SOME ELEMENTS CAN BE A SPOILER)

This is possibly the only awful episode in this series. But gosh is it horrible.

The main actors out act beyond what they usually do well past the point of caricature, the dialogues are laughable, the couple is positively revolting but also risible. It's a constant wonder between how could they sink so low in the ridiculous and how could they possibly not have done it on purpose. From the young romantic composing his novel under the rain to Watson flying through a window to Holmes leaving everybody on their own waiting for something to happen. Possibly Conan Doyle's fault there for the lack of inspiration but it's the only story that I have no recollection of, although I read the whole series several times over.

Avoid unless you want to see something rotten.
