Description:

On the set of The Hound of the Baskervilles in 1939, Basil Rathbone and Nigel Bruce tackle the mystery and the ups and downs of playing the famous Baker Street sleuths for the first time. They became firm friends on and off set – whilst becoming synonymous with playing Sherlock and Watson – for one of them, it would be "hound" on their back that they were unable to shake off, no matter how hard they tried. A wonderfully evocative piece, with music and songs from the era. Howls of laughter.
