You’ve probably heard this a thousand times; but, this is my favorite of the Sherlock Holmes stories; and, I’ve found rest listening to your narrations since 2015. Now that I’m fighting cancer, rediscovering your work has been incredibly helpful in setting a routine for relaxation. Thank you again.
I hope your struggle achieves the outcome you desire. Best wishes to you.
I’m sending up prayers for you ❤
Thank you
I hope you are doing well! Well pray also for you.

These stories have helped me feel safe and okay on many a night where I couldn't sleep or felt depressed
Thank you very much
Phair Lovett - glad they helped. All the best!
Me too
Me three.
Me too! I listen them whenever feel uncertain or depressed
Me fife, though I'm not Scottish.
I've been a fan of Sherlock Holmes short stories, and the novels for sometime. I'm now pregnant with my first baby, and listening to these audiobooks are literally the only way for me to fall asleep. THANK YOU so much for offering these to us. Such a gift.
Glad their helpful. All the best to you both!
@@sherlock_holmes_magpie_audio I knew I wrote a comment on one of your videos whilst pregnant! Here we are. She's 3 months old as of today, and pretty soon you'll have a new listener!

You're reading of these wonderful works are without comparison. I have listened to many of these 10 or more times, and even though I obviously know the outcome of the mystery, I so enjoy your performance that I keep coming back over and over again.

Excellent characterizations, differentiation of the voices and interpretation of the work. Obviously an actor, and not simply a 'reader'; this is excellent!
Indeed, Mr Greg Wagland is arguably one of the best narrator's period . Cheers
Cheers Deon. Kind of you to say so.
Tis the wonderful voice of Greg Wagland. Capitol. Such a treasure to serenade the ear whilst my hands create a filet thread treasure. Merci.
I am thanking you again for your wonderful voice . Thanks again, so Kool!!! Steve D.
Thanks for listening
What a pleasant and smooth voice! The accent also suits this type of audiobook perfectly. Thank you ever so much!
2024. I am much enjoying your reading of many Sherlock stories that I did not know existed!
I can assure you, they DID exist. Of that there can be but little doubt.
I read all the Sherlock Holmes stories over seventy years ago We had a copy of Study in Scarlet at home-the others I borrowed from the public library .I have never enjoyed the books as much in other versions-until now Thank you so much!
This is my first Adventure, but it won’t be my last. It was an enjoyable, listening pleasure, as I did my chores. I gave a thumbs up, and I subscribed. Thank you.
Actually I prefer listening to your rendition than watching any of the movies or TV shows.
Excellent job
Always enjoy listening to these amazing stories before bed just wonderful. Thank you. Greatest ever read
Thank you
Absolutely nothing can compare to your voice for relaxing me. It is a great quality indeed.

Sir Arthur is a true legend with sherlock stories and Mr Greg has a awersome narrator voice.what a team great work👏👏👏
Thanks for listening
The very highest praise and appreciation for your organization and those who contribute to it A cultural landmark and soul saver thanxx
Greg I love your readings! Thank you for bringing these back to life for me. I read every Holmes story when I was in my 20s, and now I'm reliving the joy of Sherlock and Watson all over again. Thank you very much indeed.
Greg's readins love you.
And that's the power of storytelling.
Excellent! Definitely one of my favourites. Cheers as ever Greg.
Wonderful. The voice is perfect. Thank you.
I am particularly impressed that you avoided impersonating Jeremy Brett in his spectacular dressing down of the young policeman in the tv series, and have put your own stamp on Holmes. I really admire the voice and intonation you use in your interpretation of him. Whilst Brett is my favourite Holmes on visual media, you, sir, make an impeccable Holmes on audio media.
I am in complete agreement.
Its like an unwritten rule. Such as the actors aren't replaced.
Yy put K
Absolutely.
If it ain't Basil Rathbone it ain't Sherlock Holmes!
The Adventure of the Troubled Night.
This is one of the shortest cases that my dear friend Holmes ever had to deal with. Indeed, it would have gone unnoticed save for the particulars I had jotted down on a breakfast napkin.
Holmes and I had just finished a wonderful breakfast afforded us by Mrs. Hudson, when a slightly bedraggled old fellow came to our door asking for our help. "Do come in, Mr. Grey. I received your note yesterday afternoon." said Holmes.
"Watson, allow me to introduce the Earl of Grey. Now, sir, please have some tea. How do you like it? " "Black please. " said Mr. Grey. "Very well. Now sit down in that corner chair if you please. Now sir, you say you've had something stolen from you?" Yessir I have. Or I think I have. For the past three nights I've noticed certain hours of sleep missing from my schedule. You see sir, I am in the habit of watching RUclips videos late at night. It's the usual sort, try not to laughs, cats being funny, etc. But lately I've been catching up on your stories. In audio form. Your stories are most intriguing, but the voice telling them is so soothing, that I cannot tell if I'm actually listening to them or dozing off in the middle. Indeed, if I am listening, then I am robbed of sleep. But if I fall asleep at some time, then I am robbed of your exploits. "
I started. "Audio form?", I thought. "I've only recorded my friend's adventures by hand, not by voice on any Victrola cylinder. "
Holmes thought for a minute. "I deduce that you are listening to the recitations of a Mr. Greg Wagland. He is well known for having an engaging and yet soothing voice.
I advise that you must listen to my memoirs at an earlier time of day. Let Mr. Wagland's voice occupy your attention then. As for sleep, a warm glass of low-fat milk should suffice. There now, you're all sorted out."
Mr. Grey rose and thanked Holmes and shook our hands, and quickly departed.
"I must confess, Watson, that that man was not the real Earl of Grey. "
"How do you know, Holmes?" I said.
"I happen to be an acquaintance with Mr. Grey. Plus he is often seen with his good friend Mr. Twining. No, that poor fellow was just a bored RUclips viewer who needed to know how to sleep. Now let us peruse the morning paper for items of interest."
I say, I have the same affliction!
Haha. Fuckin great! 😆👍👍👍
And I thought I was the only one who put on an audio book to fall asleep by!
Well done! Accurate, too!
haha...A chuckle, dear boy, a definite chuckle!
I love to listen to those stories. This one in particular.
To listen to these stories loves you.
…Given that I am a Woman with a more Masculine Name and the handwriting of a Third Grade Boy, it would be deeply amusing to think that a letter from me might boggle the mind of the great Sherlock Holmes 😂 I have just discovered these audiobooks and I love your voice, keep up the good work! ❤
Thanks BonnetBee. Kind of you!
A very big thank you I loved it
So glad!
Excellent, very well read, I really enjoyed listening to your voice .
Another great story and great listen! Thank you!

Brilliant story and sound of reader is stunning
Thanks Abdallah.

You can’t call it reading if you are just listening hahaha🤦🏽
@@sherlock_holmes_magpie_audio q aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa@aaaa@aqaba aw away a 😎f
Appreciation for these..well done.
This is still such a great one to go to sleep too, because listening to Percy makes me tired. 😅
You are an exceptional narrator, Mr. Wagland.
ACD would be most pleased with your recordings.
As am I myself!
Finally looked it up, because I wondered why they would consult "the well-known specialist of dancing". 😅
Careful navigation of the usage of "her rich tints" there, could have all gone wrong. Top work.
Tints up, perhaps?
While I don't like the idea that Watson was helping to bully another child at his school, when you meet Percy, you do also sort of want to hit him with a wicket.
Schools in those days, especially boys' schools were vicious places. The teachers usually led the way.Doyle was sent to boarding school as a child.
Love these stories!
Same
Me too!
Another interesting story to listen to, thank you.

Thank you tremendously!🌹
Pleasure!
Mr wagland, do you do podcasts? Personally I think that would be a great hit. Your voice is perfect for listening to and relaxing.
Hi Greg, Your own Holnes/ACD podcast (with guests) would be great. And/or a listeners Q & A. Any plans for this in the future?
Thanks! Jo
Wow, this was a really good one! And fantastic reading~
Pray tell me, who on earth would take the trouble to listen then give a thumb's down?
Well, Giles. It's a bit of a mystery. I guess it's people with time to spend doing something they dislike, or alternatively...
Ppl jus don't no a gd story wen thay hear it
I have done that before. Giving a thumbs down. But i didn't have my glasses on and thought it was a thumbs up lol Error was corrected when the specs were back on lol Love your work mate. Keep it up!!!!
The generic "how could anyone dislike this" comment. Up there with "129 professor Moriartys [mutatis mutandis] disliked this video", "who's watching in 2019" and other popular favourites.
I have a channel elsewhere with 30 videos, a mere 4000 views and only 2 dislikes - but if I hit the big time, I'm perfectly prepared for it not being some people's cup of tea.
Though I hope the likes outweigh the dislikes, as they generally do on these channels
maybe moriarty ' s friends!
brilliant ... as usual ...
Great interpretation
This is a brilliant one.
Thanks for all been enjoying!!
The addition of so many ads makes this unlistenable. I’m devastated but will find another way to listen to this Greg.
Now disabled Elizabeth. Thanks for letting me know. Cheers.
Thank you so much. I’ve been loving listening to these before I sleep each night and I was gutted to have to stop. Thank you for taking the time to change it back x
So glad you found something to whine about.
This is awesome, great reading
Thank you!
Perfect narration!
Ah brain fever. What men got instead of hysteria.
Yes, much more manly!
Seems a lot of people had brain fever back then.
Hysteria was diagnosed for mature females and was relieved by doctors using an electric vibrator or manual digitation to bring the patient to a climax. "Brain Fever" was diagnosed for both males and females, young and old, and covered everything from "nervous breakdown" (psychotic episode) to meningitis.

@@jdenmark1287 need a bit of context there. A tiny number of therapists used the genital stimulation method, it was never mainstream.
Hmm, a surprisingly long one. The Naval Treaty sure carried a lot of weight with it.
Big fan of your channel!
Excellent reading thanks so much for them.
Thanks for uploading!!
As narrator of these excellent stories you, sir, are the nonpareil.
Thank you kindly, Keith. Nonpareil is one of those words I have to look up, to check the pronunciation.
Thank you!
Many sher hol...stories are excellent.....thanks that you share

You are most welcome, Bree!
i can`t help but picture Peter Cushing as Sherlock Holmes whilst listening.
-Just figured it`s actually YOU reading, dear Sir.
Amazing effort, indeed!
from germany
Thanks Blex.
I like Peter Cushing, but I prefer Christopher Lee.
Thanks for your comments and support!
Oh, Watson. Surely the July immediately succeeding your marriage was made memorable by...your new marriage? No??
love your work
Odd that there are dislikes, but no negative comments. Very mysterious.
Yes. The oddest dislikes are those on Part Two or Three of something. You would have thought they might have made up their minds on Part One.
As for negative comments there are some here if you seek them out, but I don't get many (which is nice - Fast Show)! And any that I consider over the top, or containing words and thoughts I find beyond the pale, I simply bin.
FANTASTIC
Thank you! Cheers!
Perfect Holmes!
Thank you
thank you
You are soooo superb!
Ringpop - you spoil me once again!
Cheers
So sweet when you say Cheers! Luv u luv u You are the best actor ever
These stories rendering just carry me along in comfort.
Glad to hear it, Greg.
The stories are good.
Thanks from Germany....we adore everything english because we are most related to England.... Anglosaxons...as we are....
Proud to have had a small role in this.
I was listening with my eyes closed, but they snapped open at 9:54 😆😆😆
Yes!
Tints! 😅
Ohhh, that. Dang, Watson! 🤣😐🙄
Can you do the Japanese Sherlock Holmes stories? I love this, it helped a lot. :)
Japanese..?🤔

Greg, you're the best! I have revisited many of your works 4 or 5 times, no others can compare, and I just appreciate the superb quality. I wonder if you might consider a reading in your style explaining the turbo encabulator?
Tell me more about the turbo encabulator! What's that?

Totally awesome 👏 and great 👍 too
Thank you! Cheers!
Totally welcome 🙏 keep up good job 👍 on Sherlock 🕵️♂️ homes audio books 📚
Doyle was forever using "brain fever" as a convenient literary device. He did so in half a dozen stories. As did many other authors. The term showed up frequently in Victorian literature and characters were always being afflicted by it, like Catherine Earnshaw in Wuthering Heights as well as Emma Bovary and Pip in Great Expectations. (See the write ups In Wikipedia, among other sites.). Evidently the term referred to encephalitis or meningitis, but the Victorians were so ignorant of disease pathology and medical practice was so rudimentary that they actually thought that these bacterial and.viral diseases were brought on by emotional distress and even "excessive intellectual activity." In any case, this ignorance and the resulting misconceptions made for fanciful literary flights employed by innumerable authors from
Alexander Dumas to Bronté to Conan Doyle.
So, why was Percy in danger of losing his job when
the commissionaire was the one sleeping on the job? isn't he the building's security? Percy is a diplomat. Sure, he could have taken the papers with him to the bathroom or wherever but he still could have been mugged, he's a wimp.
Good point! Cheers!
Awesome!!
Thanks Will Icarus!
Thanks!
Thank you, John. Appreciated!
A particularly lengthy Holmes short story.
Learning British accent is way too much easier with you being narrator. I don't want to speak American English, at all. But may someone please explain what does, "Pray, what did you do then?" mean exactly? I couldn't get, why the word 'pray' was used there.
Love from Turkey💜💜💜
Pray. It's like saying Pray tell me. Please tell me. I pray that you tell me. In older language it might be ' I prithee'.
Thank you.
@@sherlock_holmes_magpie_audio Thanks❤ you're so kind.
The word "pray" comes from the Latin "praedicare." Like the other Latin word for "pray" that came from Latin into Spanish, "orare," both words can in context mean to beg or ask for something. This sense of "pray" differentiates it from a recitation of a formulaic statement, such as the Nicene Creed.
People are usually asking God for something when they address him. Thus "pray" means "to ask for" or "beg." To inject the word "pray" into an utterance today is considered archaic. It was not an especially archaic expression among the educated of late-nineteenth-century England, nor was it associated with religion. "Pray" was used in its etymological sense of "beg, beseech, ask for." The question, "Pray, what did you do then," simple means, "[I] pray [that you tell me]: What did you do then?" I hope this clarifies the usage of "pray" in the context you provided.
Nice one!

Hi Greg did you know that this story is posted elsewhere by Ernie Koppes not sure if it's a tribute or plagiarism especially after all the trouble you've had recently. Keep up the good work All the best👍😎📕
Good of you to let me know. Was aware of this and know that this cut and paste operation is tolerated by RUclips. Happy to terminate and demonetize me but allow direct clones which then attempt to monetize and bizarrely have succeeded in the past. Go figure. It's all part of the same picture. The process of getting these things taken down is Byzantine in its complexity. But if you are a corporation it's automated 😎 Getting to be untenable.
@@sherlock_holmes_magpie_audio . Very grateful for your reading. Thank you

Kinda funny how the big worry at the time was that the French would try something, when of course we know now the Germans would be the ones to begin it.
Why on earth do these have so many dislikes?
That is a very good question. I must be doing something right ;-)
well read matey
Great stories. Thanks for posting. What is this brain fever everyone seems to get ? lol
Good question!
nervous breakdowns, I guess. The pressure gets to you and you crack.

WHEN did Holmes have occasion to make inquiries about Joseph and Annie Harrison? They went directly to Woking, as far as I can tell, without time for him to send telegrams, let alone receive replies, and immediately after their meeting Holmes furnishes Watson with background information.
Ok, Holmes does say that he sent telegrams from the train station. And now I am wondering what was going on when he was making that speech about roses and goodness. Was he stalling for some reason? They never say what that was all about.
@@helenamirian908 I actually was half asleep when I heard that part and was wondering if i dreamed that uncharacteristic speech .
I'll have to listen again.
And im one of the many who use these readings to fall asleep. I actually look at the click to see if it's near bedtime to start listening . Sometimes I can't wait and turn it on on the way to the bedroom .
Thank you so much with helping with my insomnia. That may not sound flattering to the performance, I know .
And it's frustrating to not know the endings or even the titles , which are hard to read the way the list is set up , like " Sherlock Holmes and the .. " , being unfinished . If you hit on that it starts up instead of completing the title . What a waste of timt hunting thru dozens of titles . At least a few have them on the image above .
So it was the girl with the anchor tattoo.
Time for bed 🥰 😴
Brain fever much? Any comments on the STORY PLEASE? Ok so we all love Mr Narrator buy I’m looking for any input on the story, please. Now I’ve got to see what all the hoopla is.......=)

You won't hear "what, a queer thing to do" all that more often than you do in a Holmes adventure. When it's the same as the word weird.
