Simple Sublime

Another Perfect set of Stories!
Only problem is Chapter 17 is not the greatest quality.

Bravo!

As a longstanding SH original and pastiche fan: Well written; well produced; well performed!

Bravo!

Classic Radio replicated and improved

Holmes and Watson half hour stories ran on American and BBC radio weekly for 3 decades. Many featured Nigel Bruce as a buffoonish Watson introducing the episodes as reminiscences. Later and better episodes ran truer to the ACD intention with Watson as a useful sidekick. True AC Doyle stories ran out so many more Sherlock dramas were invented with variable quality.
Jim French wrote many more stories and presents them very much like the later American and BBC dramas. The 2 main actors are superb. The other actors and the storylines are variable in quality. While there is much improvement in production quality, sound effects are greatly lacking.

Great group of stories

A very enjoyable time listening to this audiobook, especially The Two Watson and Lady
Sannox story!

Great as always

I hope the entire Jim French catalogue of stories eventually makes it’s way to Audible!!

Good stories

This is a great listen if you are used to old time radio turn the speed to 90% of full speed.

Holmes Fans Rejoice!

Once a decade or so I go through a Sherlock Holmes phase - in the past, I would read the collected works of ACD. This time, I listened to an unabridged audio collection of all Sherlock Holmes short stories and novels followed by all available recordings of the Rathbone/Bruce radio show. This was a wonderful find - top notch! Writing is superb, clever stories that are true to the tone and style of the originals and a Holmes that is uncannily close to the Holmes Basil Rathbone created nearly a century ago. Bravo!
