IMDbThe "arena scene" mimics Paget's illustrations from the book.
In the Railway scene the "GWR" No.5 is actually former Lambton Collieries No.5, an 0-6-2 Tank Loco Built by Robert Stephenson & Co. Ltd at Darlington (Works No.3377 of 1909). The Lambton Hetton & Joicey Colliery system was part of the large colliery systems in the North East of England, a system so large it even ran its own passenger service.
Inspector Lestrade joins Holmes and Watson for their climactic stakeout in Doyle's novel. However, he does not appear in this movie despite Colin Jeavons's many appearances in that role.

"[first lines] Dr. John Watson: Finished. [stretching] Dr. John Watson: Aah! [picks up and studies walking stick] Sherlock Holmes: [with his back to Watson] What do you make of it, Watson? Dr. John Watson: What? Huh,I believe you've got eyes in the back of your head, Holmes. Sherlock Holmes: Well, I have a well-polished coffee pot in front of me."
"Dr. Mortimer: You interest me very much, Mr. Holmes. I had hardly expected so dolichocephalic a skull, or such well-marked supra-orbital development. Would you have any objection to my running my finger along your parietal fissure? Sherlock Holmes: *Please*, Dr. Mortimer. Dr. Mortimer: A cast of your skull Sir, until the original becomes available? [Holmes bursts into laughter] Dr. Mortimer: It is not my intention to be fulsome, but I confess, I covet your skull. Sherlock Holmes: Behave and sit down, Dr. Mortimer. [Gesturing to the chair] Dr. Mortimer: [dog sits beside Mr. Mortimer] Spot. Yes, good boy. Sherlock Holmes: Well, I presume it was not your phrenological passion which drew you to Baker Street. Dr. Mortimer: Unfortunately it was not, Sir."
