Product Description
The 2-disc set includes four episodes:
The Patient’s Eyes – A beautiful young woman is haunted by a masked cyclist who pursues her through the woods. To Doyle’s surprise, the pursuer is real. And so are the hideous murders connected to a gruesome incident in the Boer War.
The Photographer’s Chair – Doyle and Bell investigate a serial killer’s victims, all of whom bare unusual markings. Doyle looks to a spiritualist for answers and is cautioned about his investigation from beyond the grave. Little does he know about the murderer’s plans for his victims in the afterlife.
The Kingdom of Bones – When an ancient Egyptian mummy is unwrapped in public, a recently murdered Englishman is found, involving Doyle and Bell in a bombing conspiracy.
The White Knight Strategem – Two men with knowledge of a woman’s suicide are murdered, setting off a heated disagreement between Bell and an old police rival. At the risk of alienating Bell, Doyle sides with the policeman, but both men prove only partly correct.
Customer Reviews
The MOVIE- My biggest complaint is that they haven't released the rest. If you like mysteries in general, or Sherlock Holmes specifically, then you'll find Dr. Bell & Mr. Doyle a great little film. I found the whole premise of the origins of the idea of the Holmes character to be great plot. The acting is wonderful.
I'd pick this up before someone gets the bright idea to put it out of print.
Murder Rooms is a brief TV series (four feature-length stories) that imagines Doyle working with Bell and solving crimes together. In short, this collection has four excellent stories, all with good acting, writing and production values. And just a friendly warning this is fairly dark stuff, though the mood is somewhat relieved by one ray of light: the bond between these two gentlemen as they pursue the truth. Ian Richardson is excellent as Bell (he actually played Holmes a few times too) and it hardly matters that he barely attempts a Scottish accent, his presence and excellent acting skills are more than enough.
The original pilot for the series (with the two of them meeting) was called Dr Bell and Mr Doyle, and is not included here, though it is available. It isn't exactly required viewing for the rest of the series as the stories all stand on their own, but will certainly add to your understanding of the characters.
