The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes, starring Basil Rathbone and Nigel Bruce.
The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes The makers of Grove's Bromo quinine tablets bring you another adventure of Sherlock Holmes with Basil Rathbone as Sherlock Holmes and Nigel Bruce as Dr. Watson. A cold is a miserable thing. A cold may become a dangerous thing.
Even a so-called light cold can take a serious turn. Be prompt. Be decisive in your treatment of a cold.
At the very first sign of a cold, take Grove's bromoquinone tablets. Bromoquinone tablets quickly check the symptoms of a cold, quickly relieve the distress of a cold. They give you speedy results, which are very important. Don't monkey around when you can get such a dependable preparation as Grove's bromoquinone tablets. And now, here we are again on our usual visit to Dr. Watson. He's waiting for us in his study. A cheerful blaze crackling on the heart. Better leave to see you, Mr. Manning. Hasn't the weather been atrocious today? I was beginning to wonder if you'd be able to get here tonight through all this fog. Yes, it certainly is what you Londoners call a regular pea super. Yes, indeed. It reminds me of the adventure of the missing submarine plans.
A case that was solved in the underground. Underground? What you Americans call a subway.
Yes, but what does a solution in a subway got to do with a foggy night?
Well, you see, the affair started in weather exactly like this. It was the third week in November, the year 1895 to be exact. On Monday, a dense yellow fog had settled down upon London. On Thursday, it was still there, thickier and murkier than ever. At first, Holmes had turned his nervous energy to cross-indexing his huge reference books. But when, after pushing our breakfast chairs back for the fourth morning, we saw the greasy brown swirl still drifting past the windows, Holmes' patience snapped.
Holmes, if you must pace around in circles, I wish you'd change directions now and then. You're making me dizzy. Bah! It's inexcusable, Watson. Inexcusable. No initiative. No imagination. Nothing ever gets done. If you're alluding to the inactivity in this last session of Parliament, my dear Holmes... I'm not speaking of our lawmakers, Watson, but of our lawbreakers. The London criminal is certainly a dull fellow. Makes you say that? Well, look out of the window. Ideal weather for committing a crime. criminal advances on his intended victim practically unseen. He pounces and disappears into thin air. There have been numerous petty thefts, probably. Ah, petty, petty thefts. Pickpockets, ragamuffins. What's the country coming to?
Now, if I were a criminal, Watson... Well, I, for one, would move to America. Oh, hello, hello. Mrs. Hudson's knocking. Excited. What's up, I wonder? Yes, Mrs. Hudson, what is it? Oh, a telegram for me. Yes, sir. Very well, thank you. Oh, well, what's it say? Oh, wait until I open it, can't you? Ah, dear me, what next? Most unusual, Watson, most unusual. What's most unusual, Watson? What's it say? Oh, it's from my brother, Mycroft. You remember him? He helped us solve the case of the Greek interpreter. He's coming here. Why not?
Why not?
What's so phenomenal about this?
What opening scene sets the mood and introduces the Bruce Partington case?
Why not?
Why not indeed? It's as startling as it would be to meet a tram car coming down a country lane.
