The Case of Harry Crocker
7 July 2021
An underwhelming series delivers it most fun episode yet.

A scene stealing performance from Eugene Deckers as music hall escapologist Harry Crocker.

Harry is wanted for the murder of a chorus girl. He has escaped police custody to ask Sherlock Holmes for his help.

In fact Harry regularly escapes the police to ascertain just how Holmes's investigations is progressing.

Inspector Lestrade believes that he has a cast iron case against Harry. Holmes though catches an important clue and it's Manchester.

How Holmes catches the culprit was a bit left field. Although in the course of the proceedings there can only be one other person who could have been the murderer.

I was surprised to see actor Harry Towb in this. One of his last credits were several episodes of Eastenders in 2008.
