MASTERPIECE Sherlock: A Study in Pink

London 2010. Sherlock Holmes — loner, oddball, genius. John Watson — doctor, war hero. Two men who couldn’t be more different, united by adventure. Thursday at 9 p.m. on PBS-HD 6.

Blowing away the fog of the Victorian era, the world’s most famous detective enters the 21st century in Sherlock, a thrilling contemporary version based on Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s Sherlock Holmes.

A wave of suicides grips London, but Sherlock suspects the victims are not, as the police believe, voluntarily swallowing poison capsules. “We’ve got ourselves a serial killer,” he declares. “I love those!”

With his new found friend and flat mate, John Watson, Sherlock seizes on the minute details of the most recent victim, a lady dressed entirely in pink, to reveal a mastermind with the perfect cover—and a diabolical motive. But can Sherlock escape becoming the next “suicide”?

Thursday at 9 p.m. on PBS-HD 6.
