The case of “The Five Orange Pips”, from the late 1880s, was one of Sherlock Holmes’ rare failures: he identified the doom that stalked the Openshaw family, but could not prevent the murder of his client.

JIM CROZIER and DAVE HAWKES played Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson. The story was dramatised by M.J. ELLIOTT and directed by ROGER JOHNSON.
