The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes, Episode 6Type of material: Audio Cassettes Author: Arthur Conan Doyle, read by Edward Hardwicke Publisher: CSA Telltapes (6A Archway Mews, London SW15 2PE) Year: 2003 Pages: Price: Review: The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes episode 6 comprises The Priory School, The Red-Headed League and The Blue Carbuncle, told by Edward Hardwicke. You really do get the feeling that if Watson did recount his experiences to a privileged group of friends over whisky and cigars, this is what it was like. Mr Hardwicke conveys every quirk of character, every nuance of atmosphere, and it’s a pleasure to listen to that mellow but authoritative voice. This two-cassette pack was first released in Canada by Tangled Web as Tales of Avarice. CSA Telltapes have done us a favour by issuing it over here.
