1930 and all is not well at 221b Baker Street. Holmes' last triumph is long behind him and, with no challenge to engage his still keen intellect, his fondness of drugs has taken its toll. Watson has resorted to selling stories of old cases to make ends meet as he tries to find a distraction for his friend's boundless energy. Could one last case repair their fortunes? Could the world's greatest detective solve ?the perfect crime'? A play about an ageing friendship and one last moment of glory, Tim Norton's interpretation sees Arthur Conan Doyle's much loved characters tackle their final case. Running time: 2hrs (inc. interval), Suitable for 11+
