English In this episode, Jeremy Brett is simply incredible - his performance cannot be described in any other way. He changes so many positions from bitter to 100% deranged... Of course, Edward Hardwicke plays an equally important role, without whose believable care it could not have been the same. The Devil's Foot is one of my favorite cases, and its adaptation certainly did not disappoint me. ()
