Sherlock Holmes – Death in the North Sea

Sherlock Saturday takes us back to 40s radio and murder. Premiering on June 16, 1947 as part of The New Adventures of Sherlock Holmes radio program, Sherlock Holmes (Basil Rathbone) is hired by Edith Fairmont in a predicament involving the death of her husband with all evidence pointing to the man’s partner, who is also Edith’s lover, found in the locked room with the body. Aspects of the episode  involving the motive and method of murder would be reimagined 65 years later for an episode of Elementary – “You Do it Yourself.”
