A gripping collection of fifteen BBC Radio full-cast dramas written by Bert Coules, inspired by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's original stories.

In the fifty-six short stories and four novels Arthur Conan Doyle wrote about his great detective, how many times did Dr John Watson tantalise us with references to cases which were never written about in full? These original adventures flesh out those unrecorded cases to wonderful effect.

Clive Merrison plays the great sleuth hiimself, with Andrew Sachs in the role of Doctor Watson. The star casts include Tom Baker, Jane Asher, Tim West, Toyah Willcox, Lindsay Duncan and Mark Gatiss.

The stories in this collection are:

The Madness of Colonel Warburton
The Star of the Adelphi
The Saviour of Cripplegate Square
The Singular Inheritance of Miss Gloria Watson
The Abergavenny Murder
The Shameful Betrayal of Miss Emily Smith
The Tragedy of Hanbury Street
The Determined Client
The Striking Success of Miss Franny Blossom
Thirteen Watches
Peculiar Persecution of Mr John Vincent Harden
The Ferrers Documents
The Remarkable Performance of Mr Frederick Merridew
The Eyes of Horus
The Marlbourne Point Mystery

Amazing dramatization. Wonderfully written and portrayed. Just sad it is over and wish there was more!

The inclusion of these case names in Doyle’s stories was always thought provoking. Bert Coules did a fine job giving them life, and the fully cast production was a pleasure to experience. I appreciated that the end of each story has a production summary that includes a citation to the original Holmes adventure.

Doyle Would Be Pleased

Just enough left to the imagination to encourage a close listen, these new stories woven from the scant threads Conan Doyle drop-stitched throughout his famous tales, will enthrall the most hardcore Sherlock Holmes aficionado. The performances are intelligent, rich and impassioned with all the twists, turns, and emotional depth of the classics. The two-parter entitled, 'The Marlbourne Point Mystery' takes up the mantle of Conan Doyle’s famous stories and provides Clive Morrison and Andrew Sachs ample space to breathe fresh new life into Holmes and Watson, which the actors do masterfully well. The production team created a beautiful, dynamic setting for each new adventure,and despite a few moments in different stories where the verisimilitude of both production and performance necessitated a bit more amplification, the spell was never broken for this loyal reader/listener.

Brilliant new adventures written and performed with finesse and spirit!

I would recommend this audiobook to fans of Sherlock. Better than anyone else I have read so far, at bringing Conan Doyle’s character to life once more. Not quite Conan Doyle’s depth, but very enjoyable nonetheless.

A Very Worthy Sherlock
