Grew up watching Basil Rathbone and Nigel Bruce. Of course, as others have said, Jeremy Brett was fantastic.
Then there is Ian Richardson in
Murder Rooms: The Dark Beginnings of Sherlock Holmes
One of my favourite Holmes movies is
Without A Clue. A comedy with Michael Caine & Ben Kingsley.
For the novels, besides a 2 volume omnibus set of Doyle's stories I've also got a number of pastiches written by other authors.
