I'm all for keeping the characters alive, if they're close approximations of Doyles characters. If they turn Homes into something like Indiana Jones or Doc Savage though, that's not keeping the characters alive, it's creating a new character and giving it Holmes' name.

Doyles stories were about reasoning and deduction- hell, there are some stories where he barely leaves his flat.
