S1 E1
S1E1, "A Study in Pink": Watson meets Sherlock and is pulled into a strange case of mysterious deaths across the city. Clever, gripping, and stylish. Good for learners because the dialogue is mostly clear, with everyday chunks around introductions, describing people, and asking questions, though Sherlock's fast speech can be a fun challenge.
