The Missing Three-Quarter | Sherlock Holmes BBC Radio Drama

Sherlock Holmes is the overall title given to the series of radio dramas adapted from Arthur Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes stories that aired between 1952 and 1969 on BBC radio stations starring Carleton Hobbs as Sherlock Holmes and Norman Shelley as Dr. Watson.
All but four of Doyle's sixty Sherlock Holmes stories were adapted with Hobbs and Shelley in the leading roles, and some of the stories were adapted more than once with different supporting actors.
Faithful to canon and with brilliant voice acting to add, this series of radio drama is sure to be a favorite for any Holmesian.
