Five years after the supposed death of Sherlock Holmes at the hands of his arch-enemy Professor Moriarty, The Strand Magazine published two apparently unrelated mystery stories, each quoting an un-named criminal investigator. Devotees have long debated the identity of this person: was he Sherlock Holmes or not? In this ingenious new play, M.J. ELLIOTT’s dramatisation tells how Holmes and Watson did investigate the baffling disappearance of a special train.

JIM CROZIER and DAVE HAWKES play Holmes and Watson. The play was directed by Roger Johnson and recorded by David Booth and John Rhodes at Pigpen Studio.
