The Hound Of The Baskervilles. Audio Drama/Orchestration Review.

Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 9/10

Cast: Mark Gatiss, Sanjeev Bhaskar, Sam Dale, Ean Bailey, Clare Corbett, Carl Prekopp, Ryan Early.

You would be forgiven for thinking that Arthur Conan Doyle’s seminal gothic tale, The Hound of The Baskervilles, could not be adapted in any shape or form more than what has gone before; you would be forgiven, but as with anything that has history nipping at its ankles, the reality is that as long as the human mind can imagine it, then that beast, that means of murder and intrigue can be shown to continue to haunt the dreams of all who dare try to solve the mystery taking place in the lonely, haunting, dangerous moors of south west England.

Long regarded in the first folio of William Shakespeare’s works as perhaps nothing more than a romantic comedy, it is with fresh eyes in this more discerning and in part justly cynical age to look upon The Merchant of Venice as a problem play, one that deals with the idea of outspoken racism, of anti-Semitism and even inward contempt and intolerance towards a man of another faith, using his debt in which to berate him consciously for his words and supposed lack of loyalty to his God.
