And 2024 marks the 40th anniversary of the program's first airing.</p><p>Who better to lead a celebration of this iconic show and all who were associated with it, than the team from <i>The Jeremy Brett Sherlock Holmes Podcast</i>? Gus and Luke Holwerda return to IHOSE to talk about their plans, along with their producer David Youell. This trio is planning a jam-packed agenda with members of the cast and crew of the Granada series, and may have a few surprises up their sleeves.</p><p>They're also busy at work editing their latest episode — a doozy: they cover <i>The Hound of the Baskervilles</i>. We discuss what makes a good version, what might have made it better, and some of the technical details.</p><p>Join us for a roundup of Sherlockian news and another round of the <b>Canonical Couplet</b> quiz. The winner, chosen at random from all correct answers, will receive some gems from the IHOSE vaults. Send your answer to comment @ ihearofsherlock .com by April 14, 2024 at 11:59 a.m. EDT. All listeners are eligible to play.</p><p>If you become a <a href="https://ihose.co/ihosepatron" target="_blank">supporter</a> of the show, not only will you help to ensure we can keep doing what we do, covering file hosting costs, production, and transcription services, but we have thank-you gifts at certain tiers and ad-free versions of the episodes for all patrons.</p><p>And, we have 15 minutes of additional conversation with Gus, Luke, and David for our supporters. Don't miss a chance to hear where the conversation led.</p><p style="text-align: center;"><a data-patreon-widget-type="become-patron-button" href="https://www.patreon.com/bePatron?u=2318606">Become a Patron!</a></p><div><div><div style="margin: 0px;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh6GgMgvnqNkwRQpmx1Tmwm5RyO_Hz17KUPWIVFc8O-52kIDI72WNeecX1D-p6gKEAGu-5Y-HB8PZd28mPFR1p9wbWoCEvqIAUryGVlo8ipcBlm8I-AK1hE2c-ZP7knpj9mHaTtfPOYFPuZLxpyZQ4G93BQTD_hMuAJZIQInY_2THPJovhwEdrzXoPz-oq-/s1736/BrettCon%20banner.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="552" data-original-width="1736" height="204" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh6GgMgvnqNkwRQpmx1Tmwm5RyO_Hz17KUPWIVFc8O-52kIDI72WNeecX1D-p6gKEAGu-5Y-HB8PZd28mPFR1p9wbWoCEvqIAUryGVlo8ipcBlm8I-AK1hE2c-ZP7knpj9mHaTtfPOYFPuZLxpyZQ4G93BQTD_hMuAJZIQInY_2THPJovhwEdrzXoPz-oq-/w640-h204/BrettCon%20banner.png" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><h3><br /></h3><h3><a href="https://traffic.libsyn.com/ihearofsherlock/ihearofsherlock284.mp3" target="_blank">Download</a> [Save As] | File size: 94.9 MB, 1:07:34</h3><iframe allowfullscreen="" data-dashlane-frameid="3927" data-dashlane-rid="eb50f1894b44d4c2" data-form-type="other" height="192" mozallowfullscreen="true" msallowfullscreen="true" oallowfullscreen="true" scrolling="no" src="https://play.libsyn.com/embed/episode/id/30609208/height/192/theme/modern/size/large/thumbnail/yes/custom-color/509aa9/time-start/00:00:00/playlist-height/200/direction/backward/download/yes/font-color/FFFFFF" style="border: none;" title="Embed Player" webkitallowfullscreen="true" width="100%"></iframe><div style="color: #cccccc; font-family: Interstate, "Lucida Grande", "Lucida Sans Unicode", "Lucida Sans", Garuda, Verdana, Tahoma, sans-serif; font-size: 10px; line-break: anywhere; overflow: hidden; text-overflow: ellipsis; text-wrap: nowrap; word-break: normal;"><br /></div><div style="color: #cccccc; font-family: Interstate, "Lucida Grande", "Lucida Sans Unicode", "Lucida Sans", Garuda, Verdana, Tahoma, sans-serif; font-size: 10px; line-break: anywhere; overflow: hidden; text-overflow: ellipsis; text-wrap: nowrap; word-break: normal;"></div><div style="color: #cccccc; font-family: Interstate, "Lucida Grande", "Lucida Sans Unicode", "Lucida Sans", Garuda, Verdana, Tahoma, sans-serif; font-size: 10px; line-break: anywhere; overflow: hidden; text-overflow: ellipsis; text-wrap: nowrap; word-break: normal;"><br /></div><h4 style="line-break: anywhere; overflow: hidden; text-overflow: ellipsis; word-break: normal;"><span style="color: #0000ee; text-decoration-line: underline;"><a href="https://www.episodes.fm/258126625" target="_blank">Listen to I Hear of Sherlock Everywhere anywhere</a></span></h4><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://www.episodes.fm/258126625" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" target="_blank"><img border="0" data-original-height="232" data-original-width="639" height="145" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjIyAfMy7WsxQV7D-7YxXoJ7uyOK4l3ZKzNMFZT0_e2g_3u8z2Gbtn4x3WQzTw0OqaSsP-k13-QHde9EnFgO3uzikjHmQ3rK2_0Xmvb_v6ggUV32CnZ2ZeqiSrAkGL0SUYMvr0JEiMJupjFvq8dQL8CuZqAWTTbMcYBZVV1NHgYP4X5XME7qekOhj2fZg/w400-h145/Pod%20Link.png" width="400" /></a></div></div><div><br /></div></div></div><h2 style="margin: 0px;">Sponsors</h2><div style="margin: 0px;"><ul><li><a href="https://mxpublishing.com" target="_blank">MX Publishing</a> regularly issues a <b>Thank Holmes It's Friday</b> newsletter, filled with first-to-know information and discounts for regular subscribers.

The implication at the end of the story is that Holmes is the boy's father. </p><p><br /></p><p>But the version I find most intriguing comes from comic books. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://i0.wp.com/comicsworthreading.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/immortal-x-men-8-scaled.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="800" data-original-width="520" height="800" src="https://i0.wp.com/comicsworthreading.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/immortal-x-men-8-scaled.jpg" width="520" /></a></div><p><i>Immortal X-Men</i> #8, out November 2022, was written by Kieron Gillen and illustrated by Michele Bandini, with cover (above) by Mark Brooks. In it, readers find out that the great detective was really the shape-changing Mystique. Destiny, another shape-shifter and her lover, was Irene Adler. </p><p>So what does this have to do with Holmesian heirs? Well, Chris Claremont, noted X-Men writer for many years, had originally <a href="https://www.cbr.com/x-men-rogue-mystique-father-destiny-mother/" target="_blank">planned to reveal</a> in the 1980s that Destiny and Mystique were Nightcrawler's parents. They're both shapeshifters, but both usually present as women, so Marvel said no to what could be seen as a same-sex relationship. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjl7OuyTWYaniRiaP-zDRSoiNj3D3-YH3rhDyCIgrji4tchznENIhcAMBbeI2B8oSMTLqkPAWYWPDGhhteBB1M0jBz-FWRwduJgef4-Ztlzu3Y7nOZJ7wsmOOLqy8dHp-stakRAQ0hxB4teK77VQFHQ6TuFvUFxbGscyV-zPeyhs_2dEy354wZAcnufY_Ml" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" data-original-height="612" data-original-width="400" height="662" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjl7OuyTWYaniRiaP-zDRSoiNj3D3-YH3rhDyCIgrji4tchznENIhcAMBbeI2B8oSMTLqkPAWYWPDGhhteBB1M0jBz-FWRwduJgef4-Ztlzu3Y7nOZJ7wsmOOLqy8dHp-stakRAQ0hxB4teK77VQFHQ6TuFvUFxbGscyV-zPeyhs_2dEy354wZAcnufY_Ml=w433-h662" width="433" /></a></div><br /></div><p>However, in <i>X-Men Origins: Blue</i> #1 (written by Si Spurrier, penciled by Wilton Santos and Marcus To, cover by Francis Manapul, out November 2023), that origin for Nightcrawler was restored.

Maybe some of it will come out in the upcoming <i>X-Men: The Wedding Special</i>. Due out May 29, this <i>Marvel's Voices: Pride</i> one-shot anthology includes the ceremony where Mystique and Destiny renew their vows. </p><p><br /></p><h4 style="text-align: left;"><b><i>Editor's Note:</i></b></h4><p>And if you can't get enough of Sherlock Holmes and children, check out <a href="https://www.episodes.fm/1198869691/episode/MjU1NWMyYmM5MWQxNGJmOWIyZWJmOTM1YTQ2Yjc4Mzc=" target="_blank">Episode 97 of <i>Trifles</i></a>:</p><p><iframe allowfullscreen="" data-dashlane-frameid="2017" data-dashlane-rid="637e073b82278071" data-form-type="" height="192" mozallowfullscreen="true" msallowfullscreen="true" oallowfullscreen="true" scrolling="no" src="https://play.libsyn.com/embed/episode/id/7479500/height/192/theme/modern/size/large/thumbnail/yes/custom-color/0b7407/time-start/00:00:00/playlist-height/200/direction/backward/download/yes/font-color/FFFFFF" style="border: none;" title="Embed Player" webkitallowfullscreen="true" width="100%"></iframe></p><p><br /></p>

This group of rag-tag street urchins made a memorable first appearance in <i>A Study in Scarlet</i>:</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"></div><blockquote><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">“What on earth is this?” I cried, for at this moment there came the pattering of many steps in the hall and on the stairs, accompanied by audible expressions of disgust upon the part of our landlady.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">“It’s the Baker Street division of the detective police force,” said my companion, gravely; and as he spoke there rushed into the room half a dozen of the dirtiest and most ragged street Arabs that ever I clapped eyes on.</div></blockquote><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"></div></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">By the time we get to <i>The Sign of Four</i>, they appear again — and appear to have doubled in number, once again exasperating Mrs. Hudson:</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"></div><blockquote><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">At this moment there was a loud ring at the bell, and I could hear Mrs. Hudson, our landlady, raising her voice in a wail of expostulation and dismay.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">“By heaven, Holmes,” I said, half rising, “I believe that they are really after us.”</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">“No, it’s not quite so bad as that. It is the unofficial force,—the Baker Street irregulars.”</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br />As he spoke, there came a swift pattering of naked feet upon the stairs, a clatter of high voices, and in rushed a dozen dirty and ragged little street-Arabs. </div></blockquote><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">Sherlock Holmes warned them against future tumult when he delegated authority to Wiggins:</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><blockquote><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">“In future they can report to you, Wiggins, and you to me. I cannot have the house invaded in this way.”</div></blockquote></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">Thus has the tradition continued with Wiggins, who Sherlock Holmes called “my dirty little lieutenant.” The head of the <a href="https://bakerstreetirregulars.com/" target="_blank">Baker Street Irregulars</a> (which now count their membership as a little over 300) is called "Wiggins," and the office is currently held by Michael Kean.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

The authors are all members of the<b> International Association of Media Tie-In Writers</b>, so they know how adaptations work. As the project page says, </p><blockquote><p><span face="Inter, sans-serif" style="background-color: white; color: #282828; font-size: 16px;">"Our writers have placed the archetypal detectives into new genres, new alien worlds, or new historical time periods that may or may not exist. We go from medieval India to futuristic military sleuths, from 12th-century manhunters to gender-swapped consulting detectives, from…well, you get the idea."</span></p></blockquote><p>I interviewed book co-editor Carrie Harris and project manager Bob Greenberger about the genesis of the volume. <a href="https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/iamtw/multiverse-of-mystery" target="_blank">The Kickstarter</a> is open for two more weeks, and pledges are available for paperback, hardcover, and/or digital copies. </p><p><br /></p><h4 style="text-align: left;"><b>I Hear of Sherlock Everywhere: Why this topic, now? Did the characters going public domain have an influence on timing? </b></h4><p><b>Carrie Harris:</b> When the project team got together, we discussed potential topics for the anthology, with the only caveats being that the project had to be tied into a license (since it’s sponsored by the International Association of Media Tie-In Writers), and the license had to be in the public domain (for simplicity’s sake). I brought up the idea of using Holmes and Watson for a purely self-serving reason: I love them. I was also hot on the heels of seeing <i>Everything Everywhere All at Once</i>, which is where the multiverse idea came from. I was thrilled when it made the final cut.</p><p><b>Bob Greenberger: </b>Holmes and Watson have achieved universal affection, largely because Sir Arthur Conan Doyle gave us something so unique it resonated with the general public. The love for the duo forced him to resurrect his dead detective, and he's been unkillable ever since.</p><p><br /></p><h4 style="text-align: left;"><b>IHOSE: Any theme beyond Holmes and Watson? Or was it anything goes on stories? </b></h4><p><b>CH:</b> No other theme. We wanted it to be clear which character was Holmes and which was Watson, regardless of their names. I love random Easter eggs for folks who are fans of the original stories, and we’ve got some really great ones, but we didn’t require them. </p><p>I think leaving the gates fairly wide open gave us the opportunity to see the wide range of where these characters could go. Some have been moved into other genres or historical time periods. Some stories move them onto other worlds. Some play with the relationship between the characters. But they are always identifiably Watson and Holmes, and the game is always afoot.</p><p><br /></p><h4 style="text-align: left;"><b>IHOSE: How were creators for this anthology selected / determined? And please tell us more about The International Association of Media Tie-in Writers. </b></h4><p><b>CH</b>: This project is the IAMTW’s second anthology, and therefore, the call was only open to IAMTW members. These folks are seasoned professionals, and they gave us some spectacular pitches, so the selection process was quite easy. The IAMTW is an organization that promotes the craft of tie-in writing, provides networking opportunities for tie-in writers, and sponsors the Scribe Awards to recognize the best-licensed works each year. Our members have written for just about any franchise you can think of, and probably plenty that you can’t! There’s a real craft to writing licensed fiction, and these folks are experts in the field.</p><p><b>BG</b>: The anthologies and essay collections we've done to date are all ways to publicize our organization and showcase our members. Unlike, say, SFWA, we can't produce a collection of award-nominated stories since we don't control the copyrights. Going [public domain] made the most sense. Each collective is brainstorming their own themes, and people sign up as their schedules and interests allow.</p><p><br /></p><h4 style="text-align: left;"><b>IHOSE: Have any of the contributors written Holmes before? </b></h4><p><b>BG</b>: Aaron Rosenberg, Keith DeCandido, and Scott Pearson have all previously written the traditional Holmes & Watson. Christopher A. Abbott has been producing annual collections of novellas, and they've contributed to these, as I will for a 2025 book. My schedule didn't allow me to do more than project manage this book for Carrie. I am running the Kickstarter campaign and will help coordinate the back-end as needed.</p><p><br /></p><h4 style="text-align: left;"><b>IHOSE: What makes this collection stand out from the many other Sherlock Holmes books out each year? </b></h4><p><b>CH</b>: This is an excellent question! I’m personally excited to be a part of this project because of the talent and experience of the contributors. These writers are experienced at diving into an established world, identifying what makes it special, and using those elements as a backbone for creating something new and interesting. We’ve seen a lot of takes on these characters over the years, and from day one I felt confident that we could contribute something special to that body of work.</p><p><br /></p><h4 style="text-align: left;"><b>IHOSE: Do any of the stories feature a Holmes and Watson who are more than just friends? </b></h4><p><b>CH</b>: Yes! When I was working through the pitches, I really wanted to explore the potential in this relationship. The dynamic between the two of them is one of my favorite elements of the original canon. Could their friendship turn into something else? Hate? Romantic love? What would that look like? We’ll be exploring all of that. Honestly, I can’t wait.</p><div>--</div><div><br /></div><div>Support Multiverse of Mystery <a href="https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/iamtw/multiverse-of-mystery/description?ref=section-publishing-projectcollection-10-discovery" target="_blank">on Kickstarter here</a> at a level that works for you.

<br /><br /><a href="https://amzn.to/49vPNmF"><i>Sherlock Bones and the Horror of the Haunted Castle</i></a> is the fourth in a series of Puzzle Quest paperback books from author <b>Tom Collins</b> and illustrator <b>John Bigwood</b>. This “Sherlock Bones” is not to be confused with the character in one of <a href="https://www.ihearofsherlock.com/2015/03/the-earliest-sherlock-holmes-star-trek.html">The Earliest Sherlock Holmes-Star Trek Crossovers</a>. <br /><br />The adventure follows Sherlock Bones and Dr. Catson as they help a wealthy dog couple who have inherited their wealthy cousin’s kennel, a castle in the Catpathian Mountains, complete with a ghost. The couple brings the detectives to the castle to help rid them of said ghost. <br /><br />Throughout the mystery Sherlock Bones stays rooted in reality, searching for a perpetrator and motive. Dr. Catson’s breakthrough in the case comes when she trusts her own eyes rather than what others have suggested, which is always a good lesson. Even though Holmes did not find a three-bone problem in this mystery, he did share his latest experiments which involved making chewing bones chewier.<br /> <br /><br />It is satisfying to see that Dr. Catson is portrayed as an action-oriented part of the detecting team, quick to bound after suspects and take risks of her own. Her contributions to solving the mystery are vital. I also agree with her ideas about what does not make fine cuisine. <br /> <br /><br />The target audience for this book is children aged 7 to 9, and this might be a good way to introduce those in your life to the famous detective and his Boswell. The book comes complete with engaging twists and some hair-raising situations. The fourteen chapters tell an interesting tale with several different animals featured.<br /><br />The twenty-eight puzzles that appear as part of the story were fun and also helpful for keeping track of the different characters. The giggle-inducing mention of "underpants" is sure to entertain. All-in-all experiencing the whole book is a great activity. <br /><br />Although I am not in the book’s target demographic, the story was very pleasant and a good read. The characters were fun, and the mystery itself built to a satisfying solution that was not completely obvious. While following Holmes and Dr. Catson along their journey to solve the mystery, I found myself pausing to solve the puzzles. <br /><br /><br />If you have a reader aged 7 to 9 who enjoys mysteries and chapter books, or if you enjoy and collect this genre of pastiches, you should find this an enjoyable book. You and your young reader may also be pleased to see some parallels between this story and <i>The Hound of the Baskersvilles</i>.
