Well, I was reading again through “Bending the Willow” and read in the afterword, that this Show - the Granada Show - might will be forgotten, and I just made this “Business Cards” and I will leave them everywhere I go.
Like the sub or shopping center. Just place it somewhere and maybe someone will see it and will be curious.
I don’t know. It is not a big thing (rather quick creation in a break), and probably 99% will not care. I just had the feeling, that I wanted to do more.
This show is to great and Jeremy Brett’s performance to wonderful to forget about it.
What a nifty idea! I’ll have to slip a few of these into some copies of the books next time I’m at the bookshop.
I remain cautiously optimistic that this series will never truly fade away. Granted it’s over 30 years old but look at the renewed interest the Guy Ritchie films as well as the BBC and CBS series’ have sparked in the Sherlock Holmes community. I doubt anyone involved in the production then could have imagined such a renaissance occurring now. Certainly they never would have anticipated entire websites or blogs devoted to the series and actors.
Nevertheless this is a genuinely good idea. Perhaps we could do something similar to the BBC Sherlock fandom’s
#ibelieveinsherlockmovement to bring about more awareness.
Thoughts?
That is a very cool idea! So we would need a name for the movement.
#RememberGranadaHolmes, something like that? I am not good at this right now. Anyone an idea? Send an ask!
Oh I really would like this, when we could do this together.
