===Sherlock Holmes and Doctor Watson=== Macnee appeared in ''[[Magnum, P.I.]]'' (1984) as a retired British agent who suffered from the delusion that he was [[Sherlock Holmes]], in a season four episode titled ''Holmes Is Where the Heart Is''. He played both Holmes and [[Dr. Watson]] on several occasions. He played Watson three times: once alongside [[Roger Moore]]'s Sherlock Holmes in the television film ''[[Sherlock Holmes in New York]]'' (1976), and twice with [[Christopher Lee]], first in ''[[Sherlock Holmes and the Leading Lady]]'' (1991), and then in ''[[Incident at Victoria Falls]]'' (1992). He played Holmes in another television film ''[[The Hound of London]]'' (1993), along with the Canadian television film ''Sherlock Holmes: The Case of the Temporal Nexus'' (1996).<ref>{{cite book | last=McMullen | first=Kieran E. | title=The many Watsons | publisher=MX Publishing | publication-place=London | date=2012 | isbn=978-1-78092-304-8 | oclc=828139736}}</ref> He is thus one of only a small number of actors to have portrayed both Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson on screen.<ref>Alan Barnes (2002).
