thespiritualmultinerd:educatedinyellow:plaidadder:nibblesofflesh:nitefise-art:tea-at-221b-blog:His Last Bow 1917Publicity shot of Jeremy Brett and Edward Hardwicke for an unfinished episode of Granada’s series.Edit for clarity: This was intially filmed for inclusion in “The Second Stain”( Sherlock reminiscing). Producers thought an entire episode could be created from it and shelved the scene for later use. No episode was ever made, the scenes were never made public and the film was destroyed.This makes me sad ):I can’t believe this almost happened… Granada retirementlock would have been my everything.I cannot believe it. They went there! And then destroyed it!See, this is one of the great things about Granada Holmes: they saw Holmes & Watson as a lifetime partnership. They were each other’s primary Whatever, from “Scandal in Bohemia” to “Cardboard Box,” regardless of ACD Canon. So it makes perfect sense that they would have retired together. But no, we were denied.Oh, the might-have-beens! I also recently read that they commissioned and received a completed script, during the “Adventures” series, for The Reigate Squires, but for some reason were not able to film it. I love that story, and can only imagine what fun Brett would have had with it!But you know, there is something very valuable in these photographs and in the fact that they had the intent to do it. -- source link
