Writer of comics since 1989, plus radio drama, articles, TV, animation, comedy, mystery, and ghost stories. Occasional illustrator and designer.
And it's still more faithful to the original than the two higher profile BBC TV adaptations.

The only time I enjoyed it was when I pulled my own name out of the hat in the office. After that I abstained, as luck like that doesn't come round that often.

Further detail from IMDb. 'Ghost story about a female sound recordist who becomes personally involved with figures from Arthurian legend one Midsummer's Eve when she is near Cadbury Hill and Glastonbury Tor in Somerset.'

Received my copy yesterday. It really is a beautifully produced book.

Bert has said that it was memories of Sellers' performance of the song that inspired him to write it into the Holmes script.

A meeting of great talents! Looking forward to AN EPISODE OF CATHEDRAL HISTORY and A WARNING TO THE CURIOUS in Glasgow tomorrow.

Wonderful! The perfect Lestrade, and also a splendid Moriarty, among so many other great performances. So good to see him looking well and happy.

Silver Blaze? Though I wonder if the change of Watsons will be puzzling.

I saw the Hammer Hound at 8 years old, on a double bill with Sherlock Holmes and the Spider Woman in BBC2's 'Masters of Terror' season. A big step on my path to becoming a lifelong Holmes afficionado (and occasional writer). Though obviously not suggesting all 8 year olds are the same.

If only there were John Carradine and Sheila Keith figures to inhabit a Doll's House of the Long Shadows!

This was definitely the scene that came to mind for me.
