For anyone who loves the book, this film is a faithful adaptation of Doyle's famous story, with superb scenes from foggy marshes, the original and idiosyncratic detective techniques of the brilliant Holmes, and an atmosphere that could be chopped up in places. Never mind that the ravages of time have done a bit of work, with the excellently portrayed and haunting spectre, this film is still impressive.

The film only has one flaw - it's a TV film, which is a shame. For me, it was the best treatment of this story, deserving a much bigger budget. Without it, it obviously hasn't aged very well. Nevertheless, I enjoyed watching it again. It made me remember how I had always liked Makepeace. I was also pleased by the appearance of Martin Shaw and Connie Booth, and Brian "Cheswick! Fresh horses!" Blessed raged like a beast again.
