Dear Mr. Wagland,
Your readings of the Sherlock Holmes stories have sustained me through severe political violence in Haiti and a a nasty bout of ovarian cancer last year. Eight years later, I look forward to your readings like a child who insists on hearing the same bedtime story again and again. Your elegant declamation is instrumental in helping me relax before bedtime and kept me sane during some of the worst of my chemotherapy infusions.
Thank you again,
Jamie Cartright
Hi Jamie. Glad the Sherlock tales have given you a boost through your trials. With very best wishes, Greg
This comment should be pinned! ❤
Hope you're still doing well, Jamie 💪

Hope your hisband is making a dteady recovery.
Very painful, hope your husband is making good progress, these stories are perfect for those unable to get out, I’m sure they help keep the sanity of many, we should get them on the NHS👍♥️
My Sister is Going Threw the same Thing I'm Sorry WE just Pray For Each Other OK God Bless U To
Dear Marcie, I too am a sufferer, stenosis of the spine. Insomnia is a constant companion and I too found this tale to be therapeutic .My very best wishes to you and your husband. Yours faithfully Kevan Machan
God bless you both ❤
Over a century after its publication, this story is still a genuine bomb. Definitely deserved a reading this good, 👏
Yes, it still works don't it? Thanks Mindlabytinth.
Mr. Wagland has a rare talent for making each character distinct. He portrays their personalities, and their backgrounds, so well that you can conjure up a mental picture of them easily. Not only that, he has the unusual ability to make the women characters all sound different, and female without sounding like simpering idiots - a weakness too many male readers have. The stories become as vivid as movies in the mind's eye.
@@sierraseven3680 I really liked the accents he gave Barrymore and Sir Henry, too -- they fit the characters and help the listener keep track of the dialogue, without making them sound like hayseeds ;)
How is anyone giving these videos a thumbs down, they are absolutly brilliant best narrations ive ever listened to.
Jealousy, boredom, bad taste, idiocy....for starters
Very simple. People have different tastes. It would be boring if we all agreed.
@@baruchben-david4196 I agree.
It seems odd that everyone wouldn't appreciate these fine readings, but it only exemplifies how diverse our human tastes are and how challenging it is for us to understand one another. It is easy to dislike those who aren't in agreement with ourselves and our "excellent" preferences. It takes a lot of patience and consideration. It still makes you wonder where the scoffers heads are.??? Young perhaps.
Elementary. Moriarty has agents everywhere.
I want you to know that you have ruined me for other narrators of audio books. If it ain't Greg Wagland ...i ain't listening! So grateful for your gifts to us!
Thank you, Suzanne for your kind words.
You read to me every night, as I am falling asleep, transforming me back to the child safely ensconsed in parental love, and with no worries or duties other than to listen, enjoy, and drift into sleep Thank you! 🌺
That's a great message! Cheers!
@@sherlock_holmes_magpie_audio No narrator wants to hear that their work puts someone to sleep.....but fortunately, Mr. Wagland seems gracious enough to accept the complement as it was intended. I completely agree with you Anakrahn, When I can not "sleep with Sherlock" my night is not complete!
It helps me too
Well said
Well said. You’re a good writer. Like Shakespeare.
You know Sherlock isnt the cold calculating machine he seems to be when he reveals his love of being dramatic in every genius action
SOME of that could be the "Sensationalism" of Watson
This was the most surprising thing when rereading this. No one shows how cheeky Sherlock really is, they usually just make him a sarcastic asshole as shorthand.
Greg Wagland is one of the best narrators I have ever heard , pure delight
Amazing comment. You and Greg are the greatest!
absolutely
You know a man honestly loves his craft when he reads a book with enthusiasm, and freely to the world!
Appreciate your comment, rstuart!
Qa
And a true master of his craft he is, too. I've never known better narration.

Is anyone addicted to Sherlock Home stories like me?
ESPECIALLY Mr. Wagland’s performances of them. I am spoiled for any others.
No.
Yes me😃though it’s one of a few addictions!😊
Yup
Yes ,yes, I am!
This is a masterpiece of audio narration.
Thanks Greg. Kind of you.
I love this man’s voice and all of the voices he’s able to do
I have listened to this a number of times, the narrator is a genius. This is as good as reading it yourself! Thank you Greg! A Master Story Teller!
Glad you enjoyed it!
As an actor, I understand how much talent it takes to read, so eloquently, from a book.
Indeed ! A friend of mine made a short film which needed a narrator . This would cost around £400 .
I said I could easily do it for half that amount despite having no experience . I in fact remarked that " anyone could do it " !!
I began speaking too slow : then too fast : then my throat tightened and my voice rose an octave !
Then I made breathy sounds and mispronounced several words .
After an hour we had not completed one page !! It was a nightmare . ! Anyone who thinks that they can simply turn up and talk into a microphone is completely deluded . I learned my lesson that day and my admiration
for professional voice artistes
has only grown since that day !!
It is a real Art !!
@@2msvalkyrie529
Haha! I am a member of a writing group and I thought I'd have a go at recording spoken word homework one week.
I discovered I have a bad habit of 'rounding off' my words and running them together. "Falling in" becomes "fallininin". In fact, somehow entire words seem to vanish like this. I do not enunciate my T's very well at all. Nor my D's unless they're at the beginning of the word. Nor words ending in LE or words with double letters in such as middle or mitten or gladden.
Funnily enough I did record a voice message for a company I worked for when the professional artist cancelled. I had to fit everything in between two 'markers' , and even though I only had to say "thank you for calling blah blah. For books and audio, please press 1" etc etc I kept forgetting my words! I also had to 'smile happily' as I spoke, which made me look like an absolute psycho, lol.
We adore Greg's narration his readings are such a delight. It's like we are little kids every night getting excited by "storytime" it's 2022 a rainy day in early May and although we normally have "Snuggle Sunday" today is "Snuggle Saturday" due to the inclimate weather and cozy atmosphere of Mr. Wagland's voice and sound of the rain on the roof.
I listen to Sherlock Holmes every night it helps me sleep but when a particularly good part comes along I can't sleep until it's over thank u for this wonderful naration I've never slept more soundly I suffer from insomnia but within an hour i am fast asleep thank u
I am very glad this helps!
Same for me. I can recite the first ten minutes😂
Me too.. Lovely, relaxing narration.
It's good to know I'm not the only one who does this lol. Over time I've gone through the entire Holmes canon.
Being American and having grown up on Basil Rathbone and Nigel Bruce I have to say your reading is a good as it gets. Spot on Sherlock Holmes. I'm very happy to see you do all the voice's. Again a Very good reading Sir. Sincerely William Horsley
Thank you William. Appreciated.
There is a singular pleasure in listening to a story read aloud. That harkens back to childhood memories of parents reading to us, without a doubt. However, it is also ancient memories of stories told around a campfire. The pleasure we feel is a reflection of how important it was that vital information be passed down via the spoken word. Those humans who did not feel that pleasure would be less likely to remember the lessons and less likely to survive!
You are a wonderful narrator. I am a 12 year old who has this book as the course 'novel' with an exam tomorrow, and it was a joy to listen to your audio to prepare. Thank you.
Hope your exam went well, Aditya R R!
@@sherlock_holmes_magpie_audioYes, thank you. Cheers.

This is my all time favorite Sherlock Holmes adventure!! I’ve listened to this reading at least ten times and I absolutely love it. Thank you sir for these wonderful readings!
Thanks Blue. My pleasure.

Revisiting this iconic book after 13 years gripped by nostalgia. The quality of the narration is marvelous. Thank you!

I hope you don't get bummed by all of the people you help sleep. It is truly a great gift of healing. And remember, even more of us (and often the same) get so much pleasure from listening to your steady, resonant voice acting out so many characters. Honestly, I don't know how you do it. 🙏🏿🌸
I share that hope, Lisa. Glad you are enjoying the stories! All the best!
Hound - one of me favourites. Thanks for the comments!
Indeed the most famous of the sixty Sherlock Holmes books! 'Tis my favourite, too.
I have several voices and accents, but can sustain them only for a line or two. I need to become good at doin what you are doin, therefore am goin to try to learn from hearin you. I hope that you are gettin paid right much for your readins. I particularly admire your timin in the pacin of the beginnin of each character's lines in dialogues.
Baskerville name en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baskerville_(surname)

You and Mel Blanc are very similar, though totally unlike one another. Well maybe not totally.
I would be so curious to know your reaction to Mel Blanc, were you familiar with his characters, such as Foghorn Leghorn (Texas), Yosemite Sam, Marvin the Martian (Mars), Daffy Duck, and others.
They are not like your portrayals at all, yet the similarity lies in both of your ability to portray sundry characters. His range of characters is broader, although they are more like caricatures of a fantastic cosmos, unlike yours which manage to be entertainin in spite of bein much more homely and modestly presented.
I leave out Bugs Bunny because his accent is repulsive to me.

Remember play games and watch movie 🍿 of the the hound really spooky and creepy too
Thank you, Mr. Wagland, for such a marvellous read. You are gifted.
Cheers Mira
THOB and fellow SACD audio stories have proven a Godsend over the last 11 days of quarantine. I thank you & the narrator for your commitment to excellence.
Thanks Greg, you're indispensable now. The consumate voice of SACD.
I have savoured every word of this dark tale.
What a marvellous achievement reading fifteen chapters flawlessly and with such commitment.
Thank you for such for Bringing the Hounds of the Baskervilles to life. Your narrative is the most Brilliant version I have ever heard. Your Perfect and We are all the better for what you have done to keep these Timeless stories alive. Brilliant and it is a true honor to have this and all the Cannon brought to life . Breathtaking . I have my pipe in hand and my eyes closed and I am in your debt . Thank you!!! Thank you. You give Sir Arthur C Doyle the Honor he deserves.
Glad you enjoyed them Scott.
I absolutely agree with you. With my eyes closed, I could almost imagine I was sitting in a Victorian sitting room. When I opened my eyes to see modern furnishings, it was jarring, so transported was I by his voice. I have remedied this by creating a Victorian sitting room. Now all is perfection! I just need Holmes or Watson in the chair opposite, lol.
True praise indeed from the man himself!!👍✊
I highly recommend this audiobook to anyone who enjoys mystery and detective stories. The narration of 'The Hound of the Baskervilles' is top-notch, making it a delightful experience for both new and seasoned fans of Sherlock Holmes.Thank you!
I have listened to this production several times, and can not say enough about the quality of this production. If you have only seen old movies of "the Hounds", treat yourself to this excellent audio book. Greg Wagland does every character justice. Even though you know the tale, I guarantee you will be on the edge of your seat more than once.
+Susan Dombrowski thank you Susan 🦄
I've been listening to Holmes and Watson s adventures to go to bed for the last few months and I seem to be going to bed earlier and earlier just so I can chill and listen to your brilliant story telling
Thank you for your kind comment Mr Dickenson.
This has to be the best story Conan Doyle ever wrote! Just love it, could hear it again & again always noticing something I missed before.
Descriptions of the moor are really incredible, enjoyed visiting Dartmoor as a child, but somehow don’t fancy it anymore??
it's def my favorite. but there is one other story i identify with so much, when holmes says about the horse shoe meant to make cow tracks, he tells the father of the lost boy, this is the second most remarkable thing i have seen here. explaining that the large commission holmes has made from solving the case, 'i am a poor man.' I love that!
But it is this story overall, that's great.
Conan Doyle was under tremendous pressure to bring Holmes back . He succeeded beyond most expectations . There was , at one time , a fascinating documentary on how he researched the story and brought the different elements together -
in a fairly short time - to create one of the classic murder mysteries . ( Docu WAS on UA-cam at one time ? )
It helped me spend a day fruitfully, stuck in dismal lockout from Covid-19.
Your audio has sufficient volume and quality to be listened to easily (a rarity among free audiobooks), and your performance is engaging and energetic (even rarer still).
I'm very glad to have found this channel.
Greg, I just bought your Audible narration of HG Wells novels. I was surprised, amazed and then just plain delighted to discover you have narrated well over 100 books available at Audible!!! You sly dog, why haven't you told us about this treasure trove!!! You could have just mentioned that you had narrated so many wonderfully varied books available there. You should know by now how much we love to listen to your dulcet voice. It makes the posting of the entire canon of ACD/SH here, for all of us to enjoy for free, all the more outstanding. You mean so much, you bring so much, to so many of your listeners. It is almost as if your voice magically soothes away the sharp, ragged edges of life. Bless you and a Merry Christmas to all...(even if it's almost Easter)
I'll be working my way through the other books you've narrated while researching my theory that you could read the A to Zed to good purpose!
It’s official: I am a sly dog. Cheers!!
@@sherlock_holmes_magpie_audio😻💋😘
Greg does brilliant narration of The Magic Shop👍
2:42:53 “Mrs. Barrymore is of interest to me. She’s a… heavy, solid person; very LIMITED… INTENSELY respectable… and inclined to be puritanical.”
THE most Victorian line ever written
That’s how I describe myself
I can ONLY hear those lines delivered with relish by Jeremy Brett. ! Greg is excellent but JB was the Master .
Just finished hounds of the Baskervilles. Mr. Greg Wagland, as always, your narration is superb. Your depiction of an American accent I think, is flawless.
Please allow me to say that I absolute love your narration of this story!!!!
Greg Wagland and his Magpie Audio was my very first introduction to UA-cam. I have since listened with great delight to all of his performances of the Sherlock Holmes stories. His are the best work of any of the performances of ACD’s work out there! I have listened again and again to each edition of these wonderful writings. Now that I have discovered UA-cam and it’s myriad offerings, I still return with great delight to Mr. Wagland’s talented, just right, performances! Thank you for your excellent work!
Love “The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes” too. The videos made in the 80’s are great. I believe the narrator is one of the actors.
I daily look forward to that part of night before sleep when I put in my earphones, close my eyes and feel every single word relishing my neurons deep down my brain.Thankyou Greg for such a great experience, your narration adds to Sherlock's beauty. Appreciate it.
I often listen to the Sherlock Holmes Stories. They are so beautifully narrated by Mr. Wagland. Alas! Far too well! I cannot recall listening to the majority of them beyond the first five minutes before awakening 7.5 hours later, the intervening time having passed restfully, but assuredly, in sleep. The joy and paradox of Mr. Wagland's narration is that I can listen to every story repeatedly, knowing I enjoy them, although each is as fresh as though I'd never listened to anything of it before. A cunning device, worthy of Moriarty, that effortlessly guarantees repeated viewings.
Cunning indeed!!!
This is a must-listen for anyone who loves mystery novels. The combination of a classic Sherlock Holmes story and superb narration makes for an unforgettable listening experience. Highly recommended! Thank you!
Very kind. Thank you!
This is your best work. Top notch narration + voices

O,
Can't imagine A world where I can't turn to your most enjoyable reading of this tale. So enjoyable in every way!
Thanks Susan. Always appreciated!
Splendid reading! Love this creepy tale. Read it two or three times & listened to it a similar number over the last 30 odd years. Never tire of it. As a young boy back in the 80s, my brothers & I used to listen in fear & delight to the Ladybird cassette recording (now available on UA-cam). I’ve visited Dartmoor a few times over the years & it will always be associated in my mind with Holmes, Watson & the hound.
Conan Doyle was a master at creating the atmosphere of a place in a few paragraphs . Whether it was London , Yorkshire or the West Country..
Me too,have visited Dartmoor a few times,always imagine I can hear the hound!😮
I live on the edge of it....not sure if my rescue pjrt is the Hound or the Beast of Bodmin😂
I enjoyed the readings of Sherlock Holmes. My father introduced me to Sherlock Holmes novels at 8 or 9 years of age. Today, I am reaping the benefits😎.
My mother introduced me to the Hound when I was 5 - was afraid of the dark for 2 years afterwards and dreamed of a luminous dog
This is exceptional, talented narrator! Thank you for being part of my routine tasks - making them much more enjoyable 🎉🎁👏🏻
Yes same!
Yeah bro e
Hahaha saaame 🤣🤣🤣😍❤️
Can’t help thinking Watson broke this case, he got the Laura Lions connection also the fact that Stapleton ran a school before coming to Dartmoor which lead to Holmes tracing his original name of Roger Baskerville.✊♥️
I have been listening for sometime but this is my first comment. They are wonderful in every way. I will never get tired of them. Thank you so very much for your readings.
Doyle's work, the characters Holmes, Watson and the rest were well served by a reader with insight, sensitivity and humility 👍👍👍
With this I have finished the entirety of the Sherlock Holmes stories. Thank you for all the wonderful narrations you have done, without them I would surely never finish the series a I'm an incredibly slow and inattentive reader.
Glad you like them, Patrik! All the best!
Me too- beautifully read. Well paced, lovely articulation and great acting in the dialogue. Helped me sleep in hospital this week.
Glad to hear they helped Lesley. All the best!
What a great voice ..just the best. Thank you so much...a joy to listen to...
Cheers Steve
A wonderful job Greg. One of the best books ever written and it would even be a best seller had it come out today.
This was AMAZING, thank you SO MUCH for sharing it for free! I love your voice, I loved your Sherlock and I loved listening to this book. THANK YOU!! 😘
Thanks Misa B.
dont get mush for free these days xx
Excellent reading. Such natural skill in the voice of the reader. A most enviable talent indeed. Have listened dozens of times. Never tire of this story.
I listened to the full story on Spotify. Each chapter was the length of my walk to work so it was a perfect fit in my schedule. Thank you so much for this and all other Sherlock Holmes recordings. They are my favorites to the extend that I cannot accept another voice as the real Sherlock Holmes but your own. Truly wonderful!
PS: I must admit that the audio error at the 5:49:32 mark did startle me for a moment
What on earth do you mean?
These are the voices of the original Holmes, Watson ect?😉
i was listening to the end while trying to sleep, I thought there was a demon in the room.
Didn't know Spotify did audio 3, useful piece of information, thank you.
As I listen or read Sherlock Holmes it just sucks you right into the story, these stories are books that should sit on everybody's book shelf. They are true classics!
Thank you ever so much, it is very gratifying to know we can find books like this on u tube, especially during these last couple of year's. Very Grateful.
Flawless story, flawless author, flawless narrator. Thx
My absolute favourite. As a child I got my ma to check under the bed every night for 'the hound'.
She never asked how I thought it got under there, she dutifully checked as she knew I wouldn't
let the light be turned out until she had. Even then I never let my arm dangle over the side
of the bed.
haha 😂
My boxed set of the complete Sherlock Holmes books have just arrived and I could not help but read them with your voice in my head as much as Basil Rathbone as the great detective's face is.
Never read or listened to Hound of Baskervilles before. I am enthralled by your reading of it, it is so exciting and well done. Can't wait to listen to the rest of your readings
Your oratory is phenomenal. Passage of time with great friends, old tomes read long ago and an oration that, even while I am working, conveys both the emotive and conflictive nature of the work.
Away from the charm and language of the works of Doyle. I do greatly appreciate your accompaniment while passing the day at my job. Fantastic way to get through 8 hours.
With great appreciation, ✌️ & Favour to you, and All
Thanks Raven. Glad they pass the time. Six hour working days should be long enough!

This is brilliant. I was in an unfortunate accident, and one of my eyes was injured. So until the treatment is over and the eye is healed, I can not do anything but be bedridden. This audio book helped me a lot to spend my time. I loved Sherlock Holmes stories when I was a kid, and hearing them back now gives me a feeling of nostalgia and excitement again. The voicing is brilliant, and I really appreciate the fact that the narrator went to the lengths, such as using different voices for different characters and showing the emotions in the dialogues. This audio book has given me a real good experience, and I enjoyed it a lot. ❤
Thank you for your brilliant effort.
Thank you Mr Wagland, listening for the umpteenth time
Greg, to me, you are at the same heights as Jeremy Brett in your delivery of Holmes' didactic and bohemien way of talking. I go to bed most nights with one of your narrations on. This, and the Red Headed Leauge are my faves. (Red Headed Leauge because I may, or may not, be a fellow coppertop...😁) My mind is a very busy thing and keeps me up at night. I listen to your voice instead of my own one and I drift away. If I wake again, your narrations are still going and my brain doesn't get a chance to ramp up before Sherlock 's voice has sent me back to sleep.
You have been a Godsend.
Belated reply: thank you!
This has been one of my all time favorite tales since I was just a lad. I've heard radio plays, seen t.v. episodes and movies over the years, enjoyed each presentation, but this reading is by far the best. Thanks so much for posting ♡
Thank you, E. N. P.
Yes. If you could choose only one Murder Mystery story to preserve for posterity it would probably be
this. ? All the essential ingredients are there .
My favourite of all Sherlock Holmes stories, writing is superb, you really feel like your on that moor! Along with the perfect narration this is without doubt the best version I’ve ever heard.
Lifesaver for English class honestly 🙏
Good!
I love your voice. Thank you for keeping me company during my insomnia.
Wow cousin.lol.
Brava brava👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 Standing ovation. Thank you so very much. You have kept me company for at least a week now, as I wound my way through your excellent collection of Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson. Merci mille fois. You have the most beautiful voice, excellent diction and delivery. If the devil is in the details, you sir must be the very devil. I thank you sincerely, 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
Ps I don't know who gave any of your marvellous recordings a thumbs down, but i can only assume....deaf?🤷🏾♀️
5:49:31 The voice breaking up right there is probably the most funniest thing I've ever heard I fell down laughing because of it 😅
😂
Your voice is so calming and is like a perfect Fit for Sherlock Holmes 😀
I have been suffering with insomnia suddenly, nothing has worked but these Sherlock stories. Thank you 😀
Yes, it's a gift I have, Liz. Glad they've helped!
Perfect.
Either for lulling you to sleep at night with the calming voice and the story itself drifting into your sleeping yet still open mind or on a free day awake to listen too in an Armchair in its intirety for relaxing and escapist pleasure.
Absolutely love these Sherlock Holmes stories so well read the best I've heard..
My favorite is The Speckled Band, but this is a close second. You do the narration really well! Thanks so much!
This is a classic. I love these stories. The narrator is perfect
I agree. Thanks Connie!
Favorite story thank you so much you read it so well
Love listening to your narrations as I work. Gets me through an otherwise monotonous day
Glad to hear it!
Thank you so much for reading this classic. I find your voice very soothing and the narration is so easy to follow and enjoy. Thank you.
How could I be so late to this party?? This is heavenly... Many thanks & cheers! 😍
I’m so pleased with how your channel has expanded... been listening for a few years and it’s given me so many pleasurable nights
Thanks Rich for your support! Cheers!
Loving all of these wonderful books. Thanks so much for putting them up x
Excellent reading! If you run out of Sherlock Holmes stories to read, you might consider some of the other old classics. Perhaps Dickens or Henry James Turn of the Screw, or Kipling. Kipling hss some creepy tales, or Wilkie Collins. There are many great old mystery stories, or Victorian suspense stories that many young people today have never read or heard of.
wmnoffaith1 '
thanx
Maybe Lovecraft or Roald Dahl
Yes, please! Dickens would be terrific.
"Do you like Kipling?"
"I don't know - I've never kipled!"
wmnoffaith1 Maybe the Father Brown stories too.
Just found this channel during COVID. Thanks for keeping my mind off this whole situation :)
Great story, great narration. Thank you
My favorite story! Thank you so much for putting this up!
My English students at ASEAN English Tutor in Chiang Mai Thailand love your readings, one of the few English speaking audio books they can fully understand - well done!
🙏 How kind of you tell me - what a cheering comment. Best wishes to you and your students in splendid Thailand. Cheers!
@@sherlock_holmes_magpie_audio I will let them know, they are exceptional young people who give a maximum effort and appreciate genuine praise.
This still my favorite book to listen to. Ur voice is so soothing. I love ur Sherlock Holmes videos I've listene to all of them. Even have them on a playlist so can easy find them.
Thanks Vanhee Homested. I've only just worked out how to use playlists. Very slow - getting slower!
Mr Wagland could read from the Telephone Directory of Cumbria and hold my rapt attention as he did so …. A master of storytelling … Thank you so much sir .
Kind of you, John. Cheers!
Would a more populous county mean higher praise? ;-)
Mr Reilly, you are completely wrong. Mr Wagland is not only the voice but also the man behind magpie audio. He is running magpie audio for several years now. His audio books are always outstanding!
Thank you for your support Fetija. Much appreciated.
@@sherlock_holmes_magpie_audio
You are very welcome! It."s your hard work and this must be acknowledged and stay this way! As a former freelancer I know how hard this is. Thank you for your wonderful work!
I have fond memories of a Saturday night in Edinburgh at my Grans at Dalkieth Road.. Myself and my brother earlier in the day had the pleasure of watching the first three Star Wars films which were shown at The Dominion Cinema .
That night we arrived at Grans who had the snooker on her old TV.. The trolley came out with the Teapot, cakes and various biscuits. The TV got switched too BBC 1 and it was 11pm and The Hound Of The Baskervilles started..
Almost 30 years ago and it's as clear now as it was then.. I always say it was my favourite day...
Sounds great!!! Grans are great. We watched the wrestling
I just don't know how you can do this. You totally amaze me.
I listened to the entire reading in one sitting. I was so intrigued by the story line as well as by your masterful voice changes for each character. Great work indeed.
I made my previous comment before beginning this audiobook, but I really should have waited!
I thoroughly agree with everyone else on here regarding your beautiful narration.
You've done Sir Arthur proud.🙏
Wow! Brilliant narration Mr. Wagland.
Many thanks to you.
Susie
Sir... your voice and narration is just awesome!! After hearing this many times, still it never becomes older!!
So nice of you to say so, Chhuti Presents. Best wishes.
While listening,I felt as if I was a part of investigation and stood in front of each and every character.Thanks for excellent narration of this story.👌👌
Pure chance I stumbled across this !.... And I am SOOOO glad I did !
I absolutely LOVE Sherlock Holmes and The Hound is by far my all-time favourite adventure of his. Beautifully narrated, you did it justice, making it a pleasure to listen to. I think Conan-Doyle would have been well pleased ! Lucky day for me when I stumbled upon it. Can't wait to get stuck into the rest lol ! 👊😀.
Thank You ! 🐺👍 😄
Cheers, Gothic Wolffreak. Much appreciated.
Love, love, loved it!
you must strive to focus on the high amount of people that liked this and for get the ones that don't. They are fewer and remember, There is always something people (especially certain people...unhappy, spoiled people, lol) that would like to complain about. This is perfect. Thank you for sharing this for myself and others to enjoy! I need my Sherlock Holmes ever so often. I am so busy and getting to listen to it as I work is absolutely amazing.
Yes Sunny. In fact, I do need to channel a bit more 'Sunny' myself. Good call. :-)
Glad you liked!
I have listened to the abridged version of this tale time without number, but this full version gives the story so much more depth. Beautifully read - thank you!
One of my interesting and best story ever❤️ Sherlock Holmes the most loved detective ❤️🙏
It is so soothing and intellectually stimulating just to hear the British accent and the way the sentences are constructed and expressed in the inflection in their voices in the characters it's a study in and of itself besides of storyline
