Episode 8 of 8

The BBC Symphony Orchestra perform a live soundtrack in this premier stage adaptation of Conan Doyle’s thriller, starring Mark Gatiss as Holmes and Sanjeev Bhaskar as Dr Watson.

Mark Gatiss as Sherlock Holmes and Sanjeev Bhaskar as Dr Watson lead the cast in this stage adaptation of Arthur Conan Doyle’s best-selling mystery, The Hound of the Baskervilles.

Written and composed by Neil Brand, the BBC Symphony Orchestra provide the soundtrack to accompany this chilling and gripping thriller.

With no theatrical set or props, our imagination is transported through music and drama from the stage of the Barbican Hall in London to the Baskerville Hall estate, located on a vast, desolate and even dangerous moor, to experience the mystery that surrounds the tale of a supernatural and vicious killer hound that roams the land.
