Sherlock's personal view? (7,3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

private eye

'sherlock's' is the definition.
('private eye' can be a synonym of 'sherlock')

'personal view?' is the wordplay.
'personal' becomes 'private' ('private' can be similar in meaning to 'personal').
'view?' becomes 'eye' (I've seen this before).
'private'+'eye'='PRIVATE EYE'

(Other definitions for private eye that I've seen before include "50 today" , "Spade, say" , "investigator" , "Freelance detective" , "Satirical magazine - undercover detective" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
