Sherlock & Co.

Goalhanger
My name is Dr. John Watson, once of the British Army Northumberland Fusilier Regiment, now a true crime podcaster based in Central London. I don't have much experience in criminology, so this is mostly a record of how I met possibly the most brilliant and bizarre person I have ever (and will ever) know. Join me as I document the adventures of Sherlock Holmes. This podcast is property of Goalhanger Podcasts. Copyright 2023. SHERLOCK AND CO. Based on the works of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle

Episodes

The Disappearance of Lady Frances Carfax - Part One

THE LADY DOTH VANISH - we had a brief break from a high profile case and were thrown right into another. An icon of UK television was reported missing, having last been seen on a cruise ship in the Mediterranean. This was a national shock and naturally; it was a job for Sherlock and Co Ltd. Part 1 of 3 This episode contains reference to animal abuse, violence, gore, swearing, references to abduction and coercive behaviour. Listener discretion is advised.

The Norwood Builder - Part Four

MOUSETRAP - We now found ourselves face-to-face with our armed gunman. It was make or break time, could we steal Hector away from this moment of madness. Or would he and the hostages be lost forever. Humming in the back of our minds this whole time was the simple question that if Hector didn't kill Jonas, then where the hell is that Norwood builder? Part 4 of 4 This episode contains swearing, depictions of violence, blasphemy usage in a place of worship and gun usage. Listener discretion is advi...

The Norwood Builder - Part Three

TRIAL BY GUNFIRE - Sherlock and I had a foothold on the case and its discrepancies but unfortunately just about everyone in the UK wanted Hector DEAD. The Met Commissioner at times even seemed like one of those voices. Inside the chaos of this prestigious waxwork museum however; Hector only wanted to speak to one man... Sherlock Holmes.

SIEGE AT THE MUSEUM - Everything seemed to be within our control at one moment and then in this sudden altercation with Hector things began to spiral wildly out of control. Just how far this thing would go still baffles me. Sherlock and I decided to go over the case with the help of Hector's wife Shireen.

Wisteria Lodge - Part Three

THE TIGER OF DAMASCUS - Our intruder that found his way back to the crime scene dressed as an officer was still at large. But it was our turn now to take to the skies, and hopefully not be shot at for sport. We just had to track down Sherlock first and we'd be on our way. But he was busy... doing something.. weird. Apologies for the technical error at the end of the episode. A stubborn glitch proving difficult to remove from our end. We're checking with Spotify and Goalhanger. Episode descriptio...

Wisteria Lodge - Part Two

THEY FELL FROM THE SKY - we were dumbfounded, staggered, distraught. How was this possible? That these men would find themselves scattered in pieces over a Surrey crop field. I could see even in the great Detective's eyes that he was struggling. And I mean Sherlock there, not bloody Baynes.

Wisteria Lodge - Part One

THE VANISHING HOST - To look at John Scott Eccles was to look upon your average looking accountant. Sorry accountants. Yet so there was so much more to this man than that first appearance. That first appearance on our doorstep, flustered, bewildered and hellbent on telling us a fascinating story of international subterfuge, a global criminal web and of course how he woke up in Wisteria Lodge all alone. Sounds like a problem for Sherlock and Co Ltd. Episode description: Part 1 of 3 This episode c...

Black Peter - Part Three

THE SOUL OF THE MOUNTAIN - It was fairly typical of my companion to reach a conclusion so easily and swiftly while for us it remained a blur on the horizon. Sherlock and Mariana - who apparently speaks every tongue known to man - spoke with the Japanese intruder... but it was in a quiet chapel where I would finally catch up with Sherlock and the truth would come within my grasp.

That was until an old friend in Stanley Hopkins came to us with a problem. The problem was that of Black Peter... and what exactly happened in his cabin late at night.

GHOST OF CHRISTMAS PAST - We made our way into the older parts of the building, to find what had been hidden long ago.. and what was now being hunted. The older parts of the building happened to be a Children's Hospital.. so yeah that was interesting. Sorry that we all had to sing in costume - but it was pretty important when it came down to chasing the Maberly safe.

THE ANDALUCIA - we began with Captain Arthur Morstan. We would end in the Captain's Cabin of The Andalucia. Quite how we got here, quite how this all ended, is still unsettled and unformed in my mind and my heart. We thought we had broken The Sign of Four. We thought we had silenced them in capturing Jonathan Small. We were wrong. I'm sorry. Part 10 of 10 This episode contains swearing, violence, references to torture, death, grief and loss.
