I wasn’t aware of this, but apparently there’s a new, modern-day version of Sherlock Holmes on BBC… and guess what kind of notebook Sherlock uses:

You werw not AWARE of the new Sherlock? Oy! Climb out from under that rock, Nifty. This is one of the most fabulous series to come out of the BBC in decades. If you’ve got Netflix, put on some tea and take time over a couple of lazy Sundays to watch the three episodes that are currently available in the States.

LOL– I am indeed under a rock sometimes when it comes to TV, though I’ve been a fan of many BBC series over the years, starting with Doctor Who. And I read all the original Sherlock Holmes stories as a kid– not sure if that would make me like the new series or whether it would seem sacrilegious!
You must, of course, accept the writers have taken certain liberties with the Doyle to adapt to modern physics, communications devices and, ummm, stuff.
But I think you will find the episodes at least engaging if not totally ripping.
It’s some of the best television of all time – and yes, guys, I AM factoring in your stuff (‘The Wire’, ‘The Sopranos’, etc); any worries about sacrilege (I had more than a few myself) are washed away by the wit and intelligence on display in all areas of the production. If you kinow the original stories you get to smile – and laugh – at all of the excellent jokes and references. In the latest episode – ‘The Hounds of Baskerville’, Sunday 8th January 2012 – Sherlock used his pocket Moleskine (soft cover, plain paper) a couple of times.
