Killing Sherlock: Lucy Worsley on the Case of Conan Doyle
Part 1 Doctor and Detective

First of a three part series looking at the relationship between Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and his most famous creation. It's more broad-ranging than the title might suggest, in a good way — this episode ends with Sherlock's death, spending the hour mostly talking about what led Doyle to create him, his influences, and his success in those first two novels and 24 short stories. Hopefully the next two parts continue in this vein of in-depth biography and creative history, because I've found it interesting and very informative so far.
