Yep it's a genre now. But Rupert Penry-Jones and Phil Davis gave it a little more weight. And of course Steve Pemberton was in it, with his peculiar animalistic appeal. There is another series. Not sure if it will be the last.

I liked the way it was shot. It's certainly not supposed to be realistic, so it does exist in its own slightly off-beat world.
Episodes 1-3 of series two are currently up on BBC ONE / THREE

A Scandal In Belgravia
The Hounds Of Baskerville
The Reichenbach Falls

I'll give it a try.
