Audiobook

Sherlock Holmes: The Definitive Collection
Introduction to A Study in Scarlet, written & read by Stephen Fry

I bought this yonks ago, because it's exceptionally good value — the entire Holmes canon, lasting almost 72 hours, by an acclaimed reader, for one Audible credit (i.e. £7.99). Big listening commitment, though. Today (prompted, unsurprisingly, by the Lucy Worsley documentary), I loaded up the file to see if I could see the running time of certain stories. I ended up listening to Fry's introduction to the first book. This doesn't necessarily mean I'm about to embark on listening to all of it. It doesn't mean I'm not, though. (But, knowing me, I probably won't.)
