SHERLOCK HOLMES COLLECTORS LIMITED EDITION DVD GIVEAWAY
Time Life / Region 4 / Released November 10, 2010

In our opinion there really has never been a better portrayal of Sherlock Holmes than that of Jeremy Brett as evidenced in this superlative 24 disc box set which gathers together all of the series of his 1980's and early 90's Adventures of Sherlock Holmes show. To celebrate the release of Sherlock Holmes Collectors Edition we have one copy to give away!



Jeremy Brett plays the legendary violin playing Victorian detective with a great deal of style, he is sided not only by Edward Hardwicke and then David Burke as his aide de camp Doctor Watson but also from the sumptuous production design and magnificent sets (Granada, who made the series, purpose built a Baker Street set which still stands today and is part of their studio tour).

Star studded casts and brilliant story telling make this the kind of show that never wears out it's welcome. This is a quite stunning box set - a wonderful keepsake of a marvellous series.

Our competition runs until December 15, 2010. To be in with a chance to win one prizepack of Sherlock Holmes Collectors Edition all you have to do is tell us what year the first Sherlock Holmes story was published?
