Detective television series based on the works of Arthur Conan Doyle. Five films about Sherlock Holmes, shot by Igor Maslennikov earlier, were remounted in 2000, a connecting story about Conan Doyle's literary secretary, Mr. Wood, who is preparing an anniversary collection of stories about Holmes for the beginning of the coming XX century. Sir Arthur receives huge mail every day, addressed not to him, but to Sherlock Holmes. And then one day a letter arrives with a plea for help, and Doyle begins an investigation...
A plane is preparing for departure. The captain’s co-pilot has fallen ill, and replacing a partner right before takeoff is considered a bad omen. Passengers are already seated, and a performance of Jesus Christ Superstar is playing in the cabin. The captain wishes everyone a Merry Christmas and a pleasant flight. But soon after takeoff, a flight attendant informs the captain: the plane has been hijacked.
He is overly intelligent... He is genius... And he's just trying to make his life a little bit better in an new era post-communist Russia.
The final film of the television series "The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson." It is based on the late and little-known stories of Arthur Conan Doyle, united by the theme of the approaching world war and the struggle of the legendary detective with foreign spies.
This film version was released before the premiere of the full two-part television version (The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson: The Twentieth Century Approaches). In this version the entire plot of the story “Bruce-Partington Drawings” was deleted.
