To the  above British mysteries I'd like to add the Granada Sherlock 
Holmes series  (1982-1994) starring the late Jeremy Brett. His 
eccentric interpretation  of Holmes is controversial to some, but to 
me he's the best Holmes ever.  Certainly the post-Granada actors 
don't measure up.

Another series I love and taped most of the  episodes. Jeremy Brett was the 
best Holmes -  EVER. I was just crushed when  he died. I will have to look for 
this on DVD too. Another series mentioned that  I snipped is David Suchet's 
Poirot. I love that one too, and think he is the  best Poirot ever too. I taped 
a lot of those and I do have a couple on DVD. 
 
My VCR broke back in September after providing  me with 7 years of 
entertainment. It was like losing an old friend. But I  figured no big deal, I would 
just buy a new one. I couldn't believe they don't  make them anymore. I did get a 
used one because with over 350 tapes I continue  to use a VCR more than the 
DVD player. When my tax check rolls in I am buying a  combo player. One of the 
ones with all of the bells and whistles so I can  transfer as many tapes as 
possible to DVD. Some of my tapes are nearly 30 years  old and not in great 
shape, so if they can't be transferred I will just have to  buy DVD's to replace 
them. I got a good deal on discs so they are sitting here  waiting.
