Not sure why it's taken me so long to get around to these two BBC documentaries, but you can thank Jake for giving me a nudge. They were broadcast during Radio 4's Conan Doyle Week, 1st - 5th July 2000. According to my notes - which may be almost as reliable as Dr Watson's - "The Real Sherlock Holmes" was transmitted on 5 July. The presenter was Ruth Dudley Edwards, detective story writer and sister of Conan Doyle expert Owen Dudley Edwards.
Looking forward to hearing the Ruth Dudley Edwards show as I'm sure I listened to it when it was broadcast. This one and The Secret History of Conan Doyle were produced by Testbed Audio - scroll down the link a little for details of these 2 shows.
A very short fragment of an interview with Morrissey (formerly of The Smiths) who reveals that oneof the episodes of the Brett TV series was filmed at his home!
Full marks to the first person who identifies the episode.

I was sure it was already here. Forgive me -
if the original isn't available anymore as I didn't try the actual file link or
It's a better encode.
always a pleasure to get something new about my favourite character,
Merci Rick
