Sherlock at his usual best!

Plot twists and turns keep you guessing till the end but the surprise switch will make you laugh and of course it's elementary.- Was this review helpful to you?

(3)The La - erm, Diamond Vanishes
By Squizz (43 reviews) from Lancaster , 28 Jun 2007The usual criminal mastermind steals the usual priceless gem, and Sherlock must trace it in the usual manner (to be fair, they do have the grace to acknowledge this shamelessly blatant repetition in the script!). The twist here is that the Star of Rhodesia vanishes on board the London-Edinburgh express under the noses of Holmes, Watson and Lestrade.
As with 'The Spider Woman' this benefits from being a more compact mystery than usual, albeit with a particularly abrupt ending. Worth watching for the chap in the flat cap, who gives one of the most bizarre performances in screen history - which is saying something in this series!- Was this review helpful to you?

Not Rathbone's best outing
By a customer from Essex, England , 11 Jan 2006Although a solid enough story, with Holmes being hired to prevent the theft of a huge diamond known as 'The Star of Rhodesia' and an atmospheric train trip from London to Edinburgh, this is not one of Rathbone's best Holmes' performances. Watson is as charmingly bumbling as ever, and there is a lovely scene where he attempts to question a fellow passenger about a murder and ends up making a complete pig's ear of it! Overall definitely worth watching, but the dynamic duo have had more intriguing cases to solve.- Was this review helpful to you?
