The Government Man
Mycroft Holmes is one of the important secondary characters of the English television series Sherlock. This series, which currently includes three seasons of three episodes, is a modern version of the adventures of the famous detective Sherlock Holmes. Mycroft is the older brother of Sherlock Holmes. We discover him in the first episode when he asks John Watson, his brother’s new friend and roommate, to watch him for him. What John refuses, thinking then that this one is an enemy of Sherlock. Mycroft has, like his brother, an extraordinary intelligence and is, like him, disinterested in any human contact. He has a very high position in the English government and more particularly in the secret services. He will be present, in a more or less important way, in almost every episode of the series. An amusing detail is that the character of Mycroft Holmes is played by Mark Gatiss, one of the two creators of the series.
