Sherlock Holmes and the Baker Street Irregulars is a 2007 BBC television drama about Sherlock Holmes and the Baker Street Irregulars, a gang of children who would occasionally help him. It stars Jonathan Pryce as Sherlock Holmes and Bill Paterson as Dr Watson with Anna Chancellor and Aaron Johnson. It was possibly a two-part pilot episode because of the theme song at the beginning of both parts and credits at the end of the second, for a TV show that never came to fruition. A tease at the end is also present, but a followup has not been produced in any form.

Plot The Baker Street Irregulars investigate as several of their members go missing, while also trying to prevent Sherlock Holmes – who is undergoing a personal crisis – being convicted of murder.
