John Watson

*climbs out of a trash bin with a tinfoil deerstalker askew atop my head* okay but listen how did Moriarty know to tell Eurus that Molly was in love with Sherlock when the entire Reichenbach Fall stunt explicitly relied on Moriarty completely and utterly underestimating her role in Sherlock’s life

not. lying.

Holmes and Watson are two men who have a pathological need to be in everyone else’s business at all time. Very sweet that they found each other.

You do NOT want to miss this!! The Secret of Sherlock Holmes

Podcast going *in depth* on the Jeremy Brett / Edward Hardwicke stage play!!! 🎉

They've cleaned up the audio you may have heard before (on YouTube )

They describe the visuals that have been lost to time from crew interviews

They've included snippets of the crew telling backstage stories!

It was practically like being there!!

I know because I was lucky enough to actually see the play.

Part II is just commentary and is linked from this one

UPDATE: @ninasnakie asked if this was AI. I'm not sure if that means the whole play, but the the short answer is that if it was faked, it would have had better sound.

The recordings of the play (the best of which is on YouTube) were made by fans who snuck in their tape recorders, and the sound quality is pretty terrible.

So the podcaster (a reputable pro with a fantastic podcast - The Jeremy Brett Sherlock Holmes Podcast) used multiple copies to combine and cleaned it up manually and mentions in the second part that he did use AI to help clean it up, so you can make out what they're saying, and they have a really good discussion about that.

They didn't include all of the play audio, just key / most scenes and used crew interviews and descriptions / summaries in between. Even some of the key scenes are extremely difficult to hear even at maximum volume. I'm sure that a lot was completely useless.

I hope this helps!

Are you aware of the Souperwholock

Is that a kind of soup? I like Heinz tomato since you’re asking.
