"What the Hound and the Shark from Jaws have in common" | The Hound of the Baskervilles by Arthur Conan Doyle


Listen Later

We couldn't start a podcast about classics and never read a Sherlock Holmes story! For this installment, we read the third of Conan Doyle's four novels and arguably the most loved and most famous one: The Hound of the Baskervilles. And don't worry, there were no spoilers about the ending!

Originally serialised in "The Strand Magazine" from 1901 to 1902, this tale has got it all. A supernatural whodunnit, featuring the world's favourite detective duo. We talk about our diabolical-hound-expectations, how creepy the characters were and the importance of the Dartmoor setting. Tune in and read along.
