German Sherlock Holmes recommendations??? :D

Hey ho, for sure! I have a playlist for that right here. The most extensive German Sherlock Holmes I'm aware of (and probably my personal favorite) is the 1967-68 show with Erich Schellow and Paul Edwin Roth, which depicts six canon stories with some extra side quipping (including various hidden alcohol).

For films, there's the slightly more well known "Der Hund von Baskerville" from 1937, which frames the story a bit differently than other adaptations. From the same year there's "Der Mann, Der Sherlock Holmes War," otherwise called "Two Merry Adventurers," which is a non canonical comedy film about two detectives impersonating Holmes and Watson to get business, and apparently no one knows Holmes is a fictional character. Those are both Nazi era films, though the latter is the one with traceable hints of that. Then there's "Conan Doyle und Der Fall Edalji" from 1966, where ACD kind of becomes Sherlock Holmes, which I'm sure ACD would never resent.

I also just found the 1992 kids series "Sherlock Holmes und die Sieben Zwerge," in which a police officer named Holmes rescues a kidnapped Snow White??

There are other films and show episodes that were made, but either I personally can't find them, like the 1955 "Der Hund von Baskerville," or they're lost to time, like several 1920s silent films and the 1954 "Sherlock Holmes Liegt im Sterben," of which only a fraction remains. Many English language versions were and still are popular for German speakers, particularly Rathbone and Cushing, and East Germans are also likely to be Livanov Holmes enjoyers.

Unfortunately, I've only found the two 1937 films with English subtitles, though I'm sure the others can be found with English elsewhere. If anyone else knows of better links to these or of other German Holmeses that I missed, please let me know! (Maybe @flammentanz can help?)

German Johnlock, or The 1968 Copper Beeches

This is about the six-part German TV series of 1967-1968 which is a little treasure trove. For me the last episode is the best, Johnlock-wise.

Violet Hunter: “The two of you are regarded as inseparable.” Watson: “True.” Violet Hunter: “I’m really pleased.” Watson: “So am I, for both of us.”

Holmes calls Watson his “Vertrauter” (someone who is very close and familiar and with whom you share almost everything).

But it gets even better. Holmes once promised Watson that he may help himself to the contents of Holmes’s tobacco tin “for life”. To put it another way: they intend to stay together. For life. Until death do part them. How could they be more married than that?

To me this may not be the most dramatic or beautiful, not the most adventurous or colourful, but surely the funniest and most warm-hearted Holmes/Watson pairing I know. (And, what is more, they use the informal German “du” throughout, making it very intimate. Which the German dubbing of BBC Sherlock only introduced in the best man scene in TSoT)

(Thank you, @ebaeschnbliah, for providing the screenshot)

Sherlock Holmes (1967), episode 5, The Beryl Coronet.

With Erich Schellow as Sherlock Holmes and Paul Edwin Roth as Dr. Watson.

This hat has not been brushed for weeks. When I see you, my dear Watson, with a week's accumulation of dust upon your hat, and when your wife allows you to go out in such a state, I shall fear that you also have been unfortunate enough to lose your wife's affection. (The Blue Carbuncle)

Here Holmes certainly doesn’t let his Watson go out untidy ;)

Thank you so much @flammentanz!

Erich Schellow as Sherlock Holmes and Paul Edwin Roth as Dr. John H. Watson in “Das gefleckte Band” (”The Speckled Band”)

It's a running gag in this wonderful television series that Dr. Watson uses the cane of his umbrella as a vessel for alcoholic beverages (mostly whiskey but also cognac) They drink like a fish throughout the whole series. Mrs. Hudson also likes to drink a lot, she even has a hip flask.

“Die Liga der Rothaarigen” (“The Red-Headed League”)

Erich Schellow: Sherlock Holmes Paul Edwin Roth: Dr. John H. Watson

(the sleeping gentleman is Helmut Peine as Jabez Wilson)

Watson: “Holmes, may I remind you, that we wanted to go to the concert tonight.” Holmes: “We’ll have to cancel the tickets.” Watson: “By "we" you are probarbly refering to me.” Holmes: “You guessed it. And please inform Mr. Merryweather. How I judge him, you will find him at St. James’s Hall. He shall be at the bank at ten o'clock in the evening.” Watson: “Shall I escort him hither or shall I come back?” Holmes: “Neither. I think your pleasing zeal is enough for another task.” Watson:” Well, for a hundred, if I can fulfil them self-reliant.” Holmes: “Then go and see Inspector Jones. I don’t want to withheld the arrest of John Clay from him.” Watson: “You can rely on me.” Holmes: “As always, my dear Watson."
