Cette série soviétique est particulièrement fidèle aux intrigues d'origine écrites de Conan Doyle, tout en mélangeant parfois deux intrigues dans un même épisode en créant de nouveaux raccords « extra-canoniques » entre deux affaires. Livanov joue un Sherlock Holmes assez décontracté et capable d'un humour discret, correspondant aux écrits de Conan Doyle.

The film is divided into two separate, unequal stories. In the shorter of the two, Holmes is approached by a famous Russian ballerina, Madame Petrova (Tamara Toumanova), who proposes that they conceive a child together, one who she hopes will inherit her physique and his intellect. Holmes manages to extricate himself by claiming that Watson is his lover, much to the doctor's embarrassment.
