The last “official” appearance by a 52 year-old Boris Karloff as the Frankenstein monster gives this 1939 entry a melancholy tone that’s dispelled whenever Lionel Atwill and Bela Lugosi appear as the one-armed Inspector Krogh and the double-dealing Ygor. Basil Rathbone stars as the unflappable Wolf von Frankenstein though the notion of giving life to the comatose monster makes him as excitable as his old man. The impressively lofty sets were designed by Jack Otterson.

In 2009 the ex Mr Madonna (otherwise known as Guy Ritchie) called upon the unlikely pairing of Robert Downey Jr and Jude Law to bring back to the screen two of crime fiction’s greatest heroes – Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson.
The pair are up there amongst the most filmed literary characters, Holmes has been sticking his nose into other people’s business since the earliest days of the cinema with one of the first versions being a Danish short from 1908 pitting him against his arch nemesis Moriarty and Raffles, the Victorian gentleman thief – now that really would have been a showdown worth seeing.
So, as Ritchie prepares to throw Downey and Law together again, we decided to do some sleuthing ourselves and find six of the pipe smoking detective’s best screen adventures. The results have proved anything but elementary!
