Summary:

This programme offers three levels of engagement with a Sherlock Holmes short story with a particular focus on The Red-Headed League. In The Magic of Sherlock Holmes, well-known author Philip Ridley shares his enthusiasm for the Sherlock Holmes stories both as a reader engaging with the language and characters, and as a writer appreciating the skill of Conan-Doyle. In Holmes' London, Original London Walks Guide Corinna Marlowe, gives us a flavour of Victorian London, focusing on aspects of Time and Place, Crime and Detection, and Class and Society. In Storyboarding An Extract, director Simon Cellan Jones - whose TV credits include 'Sherlock Holmes and the Case of the Silk Stocking', talks us through his 6-frame storyboard of the dramatic bank vault scene in The Red-Headed League, and his strategies for translating the tension from text to screen. And don't miss the 60-second extract of the same scene from Granada's 1985 version of The Red-Headed League with Jeremy Brett.
