A different look at these incredible characters!!
Revisado: 07-20-22
This is an amazing story and revisiting of the most wonderful literary figures! What if Holmes WAS a tool of the government because of his brother, a very nasty, Mycroft Holmes? What if Watson isn't the greatest human being on the earth? What if Professor Moriarty was an innocent and charitable character to which his greatest writings was supposed to be a gift to the world? And where does "the woman" belong in all this? Well give this fantastic audio drama a chance and you will be amazed at how Charles Kindinger has reworked all of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's creation. I think you will find it thoughtful, provocative and a story that grips you and drags you along to the end of its shocking climax. ENJOY.

Revisado: 05-04-22
This is one of the finest things the BBC has ever put out! Thomas is a psychic in Glasgow that offers, reluctantly at times, the police with help in their investigations. He is appreciated and also referred to as a freak and a charlatan when things don't turn out to be true. Thomas' gift/curse helps to solve some of the higher profile cases and in one episode makes himself the angry target of a serial killer who he purposely goads on a radio show, and then drives out in the country to wait for the killer to come to him. They are very well written and fleshed out detective stories and do a great job of driving the listener through the emotional gamut. These stories are not for the extremely sensitive (Oh I can't believe I went there!), but definitely not for children. Not a shot is fired from Thomas. He simply uses his gift as efficiently as one could use such a gift. Enjoy.

Modern technology is terrifying. The average smartphone carries out 3.36 billion instructions per second. The average person can carry out only one instruction in that time. Stop and think about that for a second. Sorry, that’s two instructions; you won’t be able to do that. But what if modern technology was...literally terrifying? What if there really was a ghost in the machine? Travel through the bad gateway in this modern ghost story as award-winning writer and performer Tom Neenan discovers what horrors may lurk in our apps and gadgets....

Historia
Two BBC Radio 4 adaptations of Victor Canning’s comic novels about the exploits of a shy Solicitor’s Clerk, starring Richard Griffiths. Edgar Finchley is middle-aged, unassuming and not in the habit of taking holidays - but in these two delightful dramatisations, he unexpectedly discovers the delights of travel as he crosses the Channel to the Continent and explores the English countryside.

Mr. Finchley's adventures away from home.
Revisado: 04-20-21
This is two separate adventures of what one can only assume is a typical Englishman's adventures away from home. They are done a little tongue in cheek perhaps, but they have a lot of character and are a very easy listen. Sorry though, as there is no shooting, fighting, foul language or sex in it. Not even a hint of one's sexuality preference is mentioned, thank God. Just a simple light comedy and an amusing listen. I only wish that more were made.

Historia
Late Victorian London. When James Miller, the most respectable of Scottish businessmen, is pulled, dead, from the Thames, his daughter is drawn into an investigation which reveals a whole world of secrets and corruption. Alongside local detective Culley, Catriona’s search for her father’s killer leads all the way to the tragic truth behind the ghostly legend of The Darkwater Bride and the power of her deadly kiss. The Darkwater Bride combines the genres of the Victorian mystery thriller with the equally classic Victorian mode of the ghostly tale.

This is a very harsh story.
Revisado: 09-05-20
I really struggled to finish this story as it is really one of the nastiest audio dramatizations I have heard. I really count Marty Ross as one of my favorite writers from BBC Radio. If you don't mind bad language and really grim scenes you might like it. I won't listen to my copy ever again.

Maurice Denham & Michael Gough are two of my favorite actors. To find them both in a detective series like Maigret is like icing on the cake. Check this out!
