We had never actually seen this until a couple of years ago and we must confess to having had serious doubts about it when we read the synopsis that told of a modern day (1976, that is) cop who hits his head and upon waking up thinks he’s Sherlock Holmes and starts working on a big embezzlement case. Hmmmm, we thought. Hmmmm. Then we read the magic words ‘Larry Hagman as Sherman Holmes’ and we were rooting around for a blank tape before you could say Kristeen Shepherd.

Blue Peter
Thursday, 17.30, CBBCNews this week that Blue Peter are launching a new badge to encourage participation in sport was accompanied in the press release by the more interesting news to us that this programme’s now got a new editor, one Ewan Vinnicombe. We’ll put aside our disappointment at not being headhunted to take the job ourselves and wish him all the best, although research suggests he doesn’t appear to be on Twitter, thus seemingly preventing us from being able to bend his ear and directly influence Blue Peter policy. Meanwhile, last week’s episode came in its entirety from the garden, showing off that it’s quite a versatile space and, despite the fact there’s a tram stop right next to it and a tram appeared to arrive during the programme, is actually quite quiet. The tranquillity of Salford, there.
