No, he did not.
They asked me to improve on the previous answer. So, I thought I'd leave it and post this below. The above answer is completely incorrect. I saw the episode. It's the very first in the series... a special that was not included in the DVD boxed set - for reasons I do not know. You have to have been a fan of the show in the 80's or have watched it on PBS in the 90's to have seen it. But he most certainly did not fail to make the very first story in the series introducing the characters. Jeremy Brett WAS Sherlock Holmes. May he Rest in Peace.

Yes it has, Jeremy Brett who played Sherlock in the granada series of sherlock holmes played watson in a theatre production.
David Burke for the first series. Edward Hardwicke after that.
He's a dead English actor who was famous for playing "Sherlock Holmes".
Bisexual, in 1958, Brett married the actress Anna Massey (daughter of Raymond Massey), but they divorced in 1962 when he left her for a man. Their son, David Huggins, born in 1959, is now a successful British cartoonist, illustrator and novelist. Years later, Brett and Massey appeared together in the BBC's dramatization of Rebecca (1978), with Brett playing the haunted hero, Max de Winter, and Massey playing the sinister housekeeper, Mrs Danvers. (David Huggins also played an uncredited bit part in the film.). In 1991 Brett and Anna Massey's brother Daniel Massey appeared in an episode of Sherlock Holmes series. In 1977 Brett married American PBS producer Joan Wilson. She died of cancer in 1985. Brett was devastated by Wilson's death and did not marry again.
No!! Sherlock Holmes had nothing to do with the romance in the Hound. It was only between Sir Henry and Beryl Stapleton.
