The Golden Pince-Nez

Though I am not a fan of detectives, I am definitely a fan of Sherlock Holmes. However it's only recently that I started to watch the 1984 - 1994 TV version of Sherlock Holmes.
I really love the directing of this series. I notice that the directing of this series is not from the same person, but I just post the screen shots from The Golden Pince-Nez episode below as it's the latest I have been watched.

I barely know about directing, but I really like to talk about the directing of this drama series. I love how the camera focus on the characters through various media: drinking glass, mirror, broken window,etc. There are many reflection are being used. For example the 7th pics down from the right side , although you can't see Sherlock Holmes, his reflection on the portrait on the wall is obvious.

The composition of scenes at different places are beautifully constructed as well.

Last but not least, Sherlock Holmes(by Jeremy Brett) No wonder it's said that his portrayal of Sherlock Holmes is the most memorable one.

P.S. I tried not to screen shot too many pics, but it's really hard to pick.
