A cracking start.

The curious case of several bizarre animal killings sees a Vicars son convicted of the events, a recently widowed Conan Doyle looks into the case.

It's some years since I first saw this, but I remembered it incredibly well, it's every bit as good as I recalled. This first part is a pretty captivating watch, Clunes is first rate as Conan Doyle, he is mournful, depressed, inquisitive, first rate.

A terrific story, I was stunned to see that this was inspired by real life events, it's full of curious events, and some big characters. Stunning production values throughout, it looks absolutely incredible.

A great start, 9/10.

"Jim", the little dog belongs to Martin Clunes in real life.

Gaffes
Arthur Conan Doyle and Alfred Wood arrive at the cab road in front of St Pancras Station in London and are next seen on a train to Great Wyrley which calls at Oxford earlier in its journey. This would not have been possible: a train that called at Oxford and then headed for Staffordshire would have left London from Paddington Station.
