I have had dealings with MPI before about the Granada series transfers to DVD. I actually got to talk to the President / head guy and he defended the early DVDs to the hilt. I don’t trust MPI for anything! As tempted as I am to purchase this set, I’ll wait for Rhino, Shout Factory, A&E or somebody I trust to do it right someday. 5 stars for the entire Granada series of course, but only 1 star for MPI having the rights to it!

The item Sherlock Holmes: The Complete Granada Television Series (12 DVD) (Purchased on 11/06/2009)was received and upon playing the discs, I found that one disc was impossible to read and would not play at all and, another had problems with search mode and transitioning to the next episode. I complained to Amazon and they refunded a partial payment. The item should have been pre-tested to avoid such problems.

The quality of the recordings is excellent. We enjoyed the early episodes, when Jeremy Brett was healthier. In the later episodes, it is clear he is not well and to compensate, he seems to be overacting.

There is a major problem with DVD’s like these,the original Granada tapes were mastered and shot in England in the PAL format for English tv- which runs at 25 frames-per-second. BUT this box has been slowed down to the NTSC format of 24 frames-per-second and thus it is an inaccurate representation of Jeremy Brett’s frenetic performance. Basically an extra minute is added every 24 minutes.I ordered my complete set from Amazon.co.uk in the original 25fps PAL format. Why have remastered picture and sound at the wrong speed??
