The six surviving episodes from the1968 BBC television series starring Peter Cushing as Sherlock Holmes and Nigel Stock as Dr. Watson.

THE ONLY SURVIVING EPISODES ON BLU-RAY FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER

Having first portrayed the legendary detective for Hammer Films in 1959, Peter Cushing enthusiastically returned to the role of Sherlock Holmes for this 1968 BBC television series co-starring Nigel Stock (THE LOST CONTINENT) as Dr. Watson. Though most of the shows were forever lost, these six surviving episodes - including the two-part The Hound of The Baskervilles adapted by award-winning playwright Hugh Leonard - showcase Cushing at his elementary best, with guest stars that include Madge Ryan (A CLOCKWORK ORANGE), Ann Bell (THE WITCHES), Nick Tate (SPACE: 1999) and Gary Raymond (JASON AND THE ARGONAUTS). This definitive presentation of SHERLOCK HOLMES - which also includes the classic cases A Study in Scarlet, The Blue Carbuncle, The Boscombe Valley Mystery and The Sign of Four - is now restored from BBC tape protection masters.
