A Spoof Homage to the Great British Detective
Created and performed by award-winning duo Nicholas Collett & Gavin Robertson

Step into the world of Holmes, Watson, Poirot, and Miss Marpleplus the usual suspectsin a riotous spoof where nothing goes according to plan! Only two intrepid performers, Nicholas Collett and Gavin Robertson, attempt to play all six roles (since the other four are stuck in a broken-down van on the M6). What could possibly go wrong?
Expect farcical twists, theatrical mishaps, and a hilarious reimagining of The Art of Coarse Acting as you try to solve:
Who murdered Lady Fanshawe? Why is Matron Maudesly so friendly with one of the guests at the Clinic of Hopes and Cures? Why have the sound cues gone haywire?
