I feel so bad for anyone trying to have hobbies in a cozy murder mystery town like Cabot Cove.
Oh, your Competitive Knitting Team is down two people but Father Brown, Miss Marple, and Jessica Fletcher have offered to step in?
Cancel the competition and never knit again or end up murdered =(

One of the first fictional detectives: Mr. Bucket from Dickens's Bleak House
"Time and place cannot bind Mr. Bucket. Like man in the abstract, he is here to-day and gone to-morrow—but, very unlike man indeed, he is here again the next day."

Thought this kid in Murder She Wrote looked familiar, and it's Joaquin Phoenix (still known as Leaf), with real life sister Summer.

I found that the old Russian Holmes series is on Youtube with English subtitles. These were made by Lenfilm for Soviet television from 1979-1986 starring Vasily Livanov and Vitaly Solomin. Good Sherlock adaptations if you've never seen them. www.youtube.com/watch?v=saVN...
