The story of our famous show about Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson started with the script. Julius Dunsky and Valery Freed once came to the Linfilm creativity of television films and put on the desk the editor-in-chief, Alla Borisova, who was not ordered by anyone. It was their personal initiative to screen the two early works of Arthur Conan Doyle, the Towers of Bagra Tones, and the Fat Lane.
That's what Victor Okowite, the painter of a combination film:
" I want the tigers to appear on paper after the cliff, " the director spoke. " I've already thought how to do this, where to get the old English ducks, how to make the writings appear so that it is in the style of the painting, and so on. Another shot he wanted with a bulletproof or a cologne that sprayed the mystery liquid with the letters. And I was married in 1978, and I was given a French cologne in an unusually beautiful flashlight. I have adapted it to this version of the letters. "

Furniture, paintings, dishes were found in museums, bought from the public. The English, when they saw the movie, they were surprised, the details, until the table was clear. The Lebanese tube really smokes, and on the violin, it only simulates the movement of a professional musician who showed how to do it.
By the way, there were three pipes in the movie. The same, they were only branded. First was made by a famous Fyodorov master, called Ded, who was also making tubes for Stalin and Simenon. He did the first phone and nearly immediately after that, he died under the wheels of the trolleybus. Between the first and second films, the phone was stolen. Fyodorov's students picked up the second tube. After a series of films, the second tube was cut into the Lenfill Museum. The third is no longer known who was doing, and it's not known why the second one could not be used. But this third tube has been removed and stored in Lebanon. He smoked it with the Golden Run (although another version of Amphoru). The tube was so big that it was hard to keep in the teeth, it was one third of the pack.

Igor Maslennikov didn't think to do a show. He wanted to limit himself to one movie. But success was so that he had to take off the continuation. In the end, five films from the 11 series were filmed. And no one, at least in our country, doubts about what Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson look like.
