The Sign of the Four Part 1 (Timbertoe)
(12/10/1989)
Clive Merrison Holmes
Michael Williams Watson

In 1987, Bert Coules, a freelance writer for radio drama, approached
the BBC with the idea of producing a new version of "The Hound of
the Baskervilles" to radio. In May of 1988, this show aired, with
Roger Rees as and Crawford Logan as Watson. It was a success with
the press and the listening audience. Two more novels were to
follow, "A Study in Scarlet" and "The Sign of the Four", but Mr. Rees
was unavailable. It was decided to go with a new cast and Clive
Merrison became Holmes and Michael Williams became Watson. These 2
stories were presented in Novenber and December of 1989. Again, both
were successful and, once again, a plan was put forth to produce more
shows, this time, a series six of the short stories. The BBC
rejected this, instead suggesting the entire canon be dramatized.
