Re: Kilts in new Sherlock Holmes
It can be indeed hard to recognise the plots as being Conan-Doyle at all.
A name is used and made something entirely different (Baskerville is not a hall but a top secret testing establishment for example) and the massacre of the plot continues with the hound being some drug induced hallucination. Cringeworthy stuff IMHO and I wonder how many Holmesians would be that enthusiastic.
Perhaps I am just too big a fan of period dramas being kept in the period in which they were set.
