[ID: Digital illustration of Granada Holmes and Watson sharing a sweet moment. Holmes, wrapped in his favorite shawl, holds Watson by the waist. They're looking into each other's eyes, smiling softly. A faint trail of saliva connects them. Under the image, in cursive, reads: "I've told you before, my dear. I am lost without my Boswell." /end ID]

The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes - The Norwood Builder (1985)

I wanted to share my most favorite scene from Granada Holmes today 💛

One of the finest and most beloved Watsons ever to grace the screen has passed away. David Burke was 91 years old, just shy of his 92nd birthday, and he is survived by his wife Anna Calder-Marshall and his son Tom Burke.

By all accounts, he was a gentleman and a wonderful human being. He could have stayed on to play Watson much longer, which would have made many of us very happy, but he chose to leave the show to be nearer to his family, especially since Tom was very young at the time.

His was not the first intelligent and competent Watson, but this version marked a turning point in mainstream depictions, from comedic sidekick to a hero in his own right.

RIP, dear sir. You will be missed. Thank you for everything.
