Brilliant

Basil Rathbone & Nigel Bruce as Holmes & Watson - pure heaven. Rathbone is fantastic as Holmes & Bruce, playing a bumbling Watson is also excellent. This has loads of short story Sherlock Holmes stories - some better than others. This is brilliant.

Nostalgic Sherlock Holmes

Great Adventures of Sherlock Holmes starring Basil Rathbone and Nigel Bruce.
The radio shows have been cleaned up to make for a great listening experience for fans of the tv shows.
Although loosely based on Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s Sherlock Holmes, the adventures starring Basil Rathbone and Nigel Bruce have always been my favourite Sherlock Holmes and Doctor Watson.
Great radio shows which include the adverts for the time, mainly Petri Wine, which adds to the nostalgia of listening to these great classics from a bygone era.
