Enola Holmes - 2020 - 6/10

Sherlock and Enola share a moment, before the narrative throttles up.
Better than anticipated new thread of the family Holmes.
Youngest child Enola (alonE) wakes to discover mother has disappeared.
Summoned brother Mycroft takes charge. Telling Sherlock to find mother, while he opts to send highly independent Enola to a repressive finishing school.
Sure enough, Enola takes off for London to locate Mom on her own.
Fast moving narrative is hardly canon (Sherlock is faithful enough, Mycroft is badly rewritten).
Shows a degree of political correctness, but not irritatingly so.
Seems aimed a younger viewers. Adults can watch without cringing.
