Brief Synopsis:
It's Christmas, so I fancied doing a seasonal edit and what better than a Victorian Christmas with Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson!
Intention:
For Christmas, I wanted to make this most excellent episode of 'The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes' a little more "Chrismassy", focus a bit more on Holmes and to remake the prologue to remove the spoilers and add a lovely Christmas-Carol.

Editing Details:
- Cut-up, rearranged and rescored the opening prologue. One flaw of this great TV show is that the intro often gave away too much of the mystery. So hopefully I've toned that down a bit while adding a lovely rendition of 'Hark! The Herald Angels Sing'.
- Removed any scenes not involving Holmes or John Horner.
- Removed the scene where Holmes briefly decides to keep the Jewel.

This was a delightful edit and seemingly very simple. I'm unfamiliar with the source and not seen this Sherlock and I enjoyed it a lot. I didn't notice any cuts whatsoever and the story was very good and heartwarming. My only niggle would be with the strange moonlike couple. The man who was arrested and his wifes communication at the jail cell, that was very strange and there was no context and a lack of depth, whereas the other characters had flashbacks or something like that. This may be an issue with the source though, but I'm not sure, but a good edit nonetheless!
