Good ol' Basil! Loved him as Sherlock Holmes. Terribly curious about his surname: Rathbone (what a bad-*** name, eh wot?)? I've a notion that it's a name with Celtic roots from Northern England or the Borders even- Northumbria and such, and that's why some of my favourite actors have such cool names (that aren't Hollywoodised), eg Ioan Gruffudd, Benedict Cumberbatch and of course the esteembale Basil Rathbone.
