Our take on Sherlock

This modern update drops Arthur Conan Doyle's detective into 21st-century London, where a brilliant, abrasive Sherlock and his steadfast Watson crack crimes with dazzling deduction. Stylish, twisty and electrically performed, it reinvented the sleuth for a new era. If its clever mysteries and crackling chemistry hooked you, seek out detective series and modern whodunits built on genius, banter and ingenious puzzles.
