In the March 2023 episode of Merry Britsmas, I explore some alternative, little known (but brilliant) British indie christmas songs from the likes of Oh Wonder and Gaffa Tape Sandy. I also look at how nurses and hospitals dealt with the festive season during World War II, and take a gander at a BBC Sherlock Holmes episode set during the holidays.  Oh Wonder - This Xmas  Citizen Helene - On Xmas Day  Mary Hepworth - The Wolf & The Woods  Gaffa Tape Sandy - Black Xmas 

Well done for making it this far to Episode 2 of 'Have You Ever?' the podcast where two friends Rowan (woman) and Svein (man) recommend things for the other to do, see, read, watch or listen. It's that simple. And funny. Episode 2 sees Rowan and Svein report back on the recommendations made in Episode 1. These were Project Runway and the BBC Sherlock Holmes radio plays. Episode 2 Recommendations Rowan: Mary Queen of Scots (Anamorphosis) Svein: Virtual Reality Gaming In Episode 2 we also chat about: Superhero abilities Geocaching The Haunting of Hill House The Woman in Black Marion Cotillard falling down a hole Michael Fassbender LINKS: Mary Queen of Scots (Anamorphosis) https://www.nationalgalleries.org/art-and-artists/3239/anamorphosis-called-mary-queen-scots-1542-1587-reigned-1542-1567 EVR (Virtual Reality Arcade) https://www.e-vr.co.uk/

Live from BSI Weekend! BSBs Curly, Lyndsay, and Maria got to sit down and chat with Bert Coules, head writer and creator of the BBC Sherlock Holmes radio series starring Clive Merrison and Michael Williams. This radio adaptation of the canon was the first to present all 60 stories (plus more!), and for many is the truest “Victorian” adaptation. We learn how the series came to be, how it kept expanding, and some fun tales from the recording studio.  Links: Bert Coules' Website:  About Bert, his other work, and future projects.

   In , we explored some of the early days of Sherlock Holmes on radio with Bert Coules. We're pleased to present the second part of that episode as we make a deeper dive into Sherlock Holmes as portrayed in radio productions.   The bulk of our conversation with Bert centers - appropriately so - around the BBC Radio 4 series starring Clive Merrison and Michael Williams (). After selling a dramatized version of The Hound of the Baskervilles to the BBC (which starred Roger Rees), Bert was given the green light to dramatize all 60 Sherlock Holmes stories, serving as the head writer.   The striking resemblance between Sidney Paget's Sherlock Holmes (r) and Clive Merrison in the role (l).     Bert discusses the casting of the new series, including what was required in a Watson that was an equal partner - and a zinger aimed at Nigel Bruce - as well as the increased comfort felt by the characters and actors over the course of the series recording.You may be surprised to learn how the stories were assigned to the writing team (a scientific method from the BBC, no doubt) and how the writers were "imaginatively faithful" to the stories. Not to mention the backstory behind an alternative ending to "The Solitary Cyclist."       Of particular interest for us in this show is a multitude of sound clips from the BBC series - including the music that played such a prominent role in so1me episodes. We did a bit of our own sound design in this episode in keeping with the spirit of the theme.   We also discuss some of the more intriguing guest stars on the series, such as Peter Sallis, Desmond Llewelyn, Brian Blessed and Tom Baker, as well as the "new" Watson during The Further Adventures of Sherlock Holmes, Andrew Sachs. Bert has a great story about how he ended the series in a manner than ensured it will not be continued.       CONTEST ALERT: This episode contains a contest.  We mentioned Denis Quilley and Patrick Allen as two actors who have been in the BBC Sherlock Holmes radio shows (as Bob Carruthers [SOLI] and Leon Sterndale [DEVI], respectively) and who have also been guest stars in the Granada series (as Leon Sterndale [DEVI] and Col. Sebastian Moran [EMPT], respectively.   There are at least two other actors who have also had guest starring roles in each series. The first individual who  the names and their respective roles and stories in each series will win a copy of Bert Coules' book, .   The Baker Street Regulars - recurring members of the cast (L to R):  Clive Merrison (Holmes), Stephen Thorne (Inspector Lestrade),  Joan Matheson (Mrs. Hudson), Michael Williams (Watson),  John Hartley (Mycroft Holmes).       Our Gas-Lamp this episode, we return to The Baker Street Journal of January 1952 (Vol. 2 No. 1 (New Series)) for Edgar Rosenberger's poem "Four Ages," representing the evolution of Sherlock Holmes as portrayed by various actors.       Links: , maintained by Bert Coules.  - a new editions, revised and expanded - by Bert Coules       More links available on on ,  and of course, our .       Please  and be kind enough to leave a rating or review for the show.
