This has nothing (hardly) whatsoever to do with SF and is clearly a waste of the taxpayer's money it takes to get it to you, but what the h.... Those of you who are on a cable TV system may have not noticed that Tom Baker, yes, the Tom Baker of Dr. Who, is starring as Sherlock Holmes in a production of the Hound of the Baskervilles on the ARTS/ENTERTAINMENT network. First hour is airing right now, to be repeated later tonight and again at other times. My first reaction at the first few minutes was that it was NOT Sherlock, but Dr. Who I was seeing, but then when one thinks about it, the two characters are remarkably similar and it is excellent casting (even if it isn't Basil).
