> I grew up with Jeremy Brett's Sherlock Holmes, by far, in my opinion, the most accurate representation of the stories.

Yeah, I grew up watching that on PBS Mystery! and love it. I rewatched some of it as an adult and it holds up very well.

I also really liked David Suchet's Poirot. I still have yet to watch the last few seasons though.

Suchet's Poirot is definitely good, but I should point out that it is produced by ITV not BBC (their long term rival). My mother used to watch it, so I'm very familiar with it thanks to her.

However, I've never been much enamoured with the Miss Marple adaptations. Joan Hickson's is maybe the best (even though I prefer Geraldine McEwan as an actress) but I never took to it like Poirot.

You might like the nineties Jeeves and Wooster which stars Stephen Fry as Jeeves and Hugh Laurie (of House fame) as Bertie Wooster. It is formulaic but fun. I think it's the best thing Stephen Fry ever did.

Oh my family watched Jeeves and Wooster up until my dad learned of Stephen Fry's legal issues and it became banned in the house lol (evangelical extremist family).
