''Sherlock Holmes'' (a.k.a. ''We Present Alan Wheatley as Mr Sherlock Holmes in...'') was a 1951 television series produced by the BBC featuring Alan Wheatley as Sherlock Holmes, Raymond Francis as Dr. Watson and Eric Maturin as Colonel Moran. This was the first series of Sherlock Holmes stories adapted for television. ==Production== Some sources state that a BBC filmed adaptation of "The Adventure of the Mazarin Stone" starring Andrew Osborn as Holmes and Philip King as Watson was a pilot episode for the series〔〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Sherlock Holmes )〕 while others claim the "Mazarin Stone" adaptation was a separate thing entirely〔 and was filmed for the Festival of Britain.〔 Series star Alan Wheatley claimed that the genesis of the series resided with a review of his performance in a television adaptation of Patrick Hamilton's ''Rope''.〔 C. A. Lejeune did indeed pen the scripts, writing all six episodes. Lejeune claimed the series strived for accuracy noting the first episode as "the first of many adaptations to trumpet canonical authenticity as the ''sine qua non'' for essays into Holmesesian lore." In an interview for ''Radio Times'', Lejeune stated "we picked the stories that seemed likely to give a variety of subject, while rounding out the portrait of the man..."〔 Each 35 minute episode was aired live〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The wide world of Sherlock Holmes )〕 and consequently no tapes exist of the series to date.〔 Live television had its pitfalls of which Wheatley later complained. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Sherlock Holmes (1951 TV series)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
