Ok where to begin.... Sherlock Holmes and his good assistant Doctor Watson are a very heavy influence on our main characters Abberline and Moore.
Sherlock Holmes is one of the most well known detective characters in the world, his linked to all things British and has a national treasure quality to him. He as well as one of the most well known assistants Watson have many adventures, which are written are written by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. Overall there are 56 book some novels, some short story and they span over the time of 1880-1914.
The reason I feel that Abbereline and Moore liken to Holmes and Watson is the time period in which they are both set are alike, they are a duo; but they differ in the fact that Moore works for the MET and Abberline is a slight loose cannon on the force.
Here are the to most recent and well known adaptations of Sherlock Holmes:
Sherlock
Set in modern London. Sherlock shows the detective in a new environment which shows him being how we may expect him to seem in this this atmosphere. Which is a liking for technology. I like this drama as it shows another side to the Sherlock Holmes phenomena in a different way which shows that Holmes would probably adapt to technology and be a morden man.
Sherlock Holmes
This is a 2009 adaptation of Sherlock Holmes which stars Robert Downing Jr and Jude Law. This is a Hollywood take on Holmes which I personally dont like very much, though "purists" of Homes may not be sure of Sherlock; it has an essence and a quality to it which I feel is lost in this film. Also the Holmes played in it is American!!! ITS A BRITISH BOOK!!
