Sherlock Holmes Radio: The Out of Date Murder | Basil Rathbone, Nigel Bruce, Tom Conway

The New Adventures of Sherlock Holmes is an old-time radio show which aired in the USA from 1939 to 1950. The series was based on the Sherlock Holmes stories by Arthur Conan Doyle.

For most of the show's run, the program starred Basil Rathbone as Sherlock Holmes and Nigel Bruce as Dr. Watson. Other actors played Holmes and Watson in later seasons.

I love the old Rathbone/Bruce Sherlock Holmes radio shows! Rathbone and Bruce were and remain to this day the best pairing ever as Holmes and Watson! It sounds like the voice actor who plays the role of the professor and talks to Holmes and Watson at the beginning of this Sherlock Holmes radio show is the same actor who played Col. Cavanaugh in the 12th and final Universal Studios' Holmes film, "Dressed To Kill"(1946).

The very best Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson. NO Other duo comes close!

For radio is one thing, however for t.v. the best ever was Ronald Howard, as Holmes. Epitome. M
