An old schoolmate of Dr. Watson's, Percy Phelps (David Gwillim), has asked the long-time friend of Sherlock Holmes to intercede on his behalf with the famous detective. Phelps, a member of the Foreign Office, has stolen a copy of a naval treaty with serious international consequences, but the document has been missing for two months. His nerves shattered from worry, Phelps is under the care of his fiancée (Alison Skilbeck), but so far the treaty has not surfaced. Holmes (Jeremy Brett), aided by Watson (David Burke), agrees to take the case, which is handsomely adapted in this episode from the Granada Television series. As usual, Brett is the most fascinating, most complex, and truest of the many Holmes portrayals in film and TV history, Burke is solid as the good doctor, and Rosalie Williams is delightful in her fleeting appearance as the Baker Street housekeeper, Mrs. Hudson. --Tom Keogh

"The Naval Treaty" along with "The Crooked Man" are my least favorite episodes in "The Adventures of SH" series. I give it four stars though because it was well done. I probably just don't like it as much as the others because "The Naval Treaty" was never one of my favorite short stories. But it is definitely worth seeing, if for no other reason, then just for Jeremy Brett's definitive performance as Sherlock Holmes.
