This type of person that portrays the inspector is one of the things that makes a police force such a farce of justice. Rather than putting ego aside and working towards the goal of bringing justice to the case he would rather play games with Holmes. All to make a name for himself.
Aleatha Vogel and be annoying to boot in his portrayal of some kind of inspector. This guy failed in school many ways... being the character and yes being a jerk to Holmes.
@Lyrictheac Whilst not shown on-screen, the actress certainly does portray someone who is drugged, so kudos to her or the writer for remembering to keep that detail in even if the reason is never shown.
@Songsmirth She was too drugged to scream according to the book. She was, however, able to regain enough of her senses to realize she was in danger, and to therefore attempt an escape.
These adaptations of Sherlock Holmes always manage to find the creepiest, chubbiest, most pink faced men possible. If you'll recall Dr Roylott in the Copper Beeches, he also had a fine example of a "rape voice."
@FredericDaguerre It's so dangerous nowadays with the crazy drivers! But that is a poor excuse. I guess most people are simply either too lazy or too busy to enjoy a bike ride on a nice day. It is a rather enjoyable diversion.
