I fell asleep to these stories for months. Thank you for them. It is so relaxing and helps me block my nightly spiraling thoughts. This may not be what you attended but I greatly appreciate them. Whenever I struggle to sleep I come back to them.
Agree... Hahha our brains are like sherlock's..... It needs to be active.. Even when we are trying to sleep... Listening to these stories keeps my mind focussed and active enough on one thing that i can trick my brains to fall a sleep after 1or2 hours... I hope hahah thanks
Your ability to keep straight the English, Irish and German accents notwithstanding the voices of Holmes and Watson is simply staggering!!! (had to use notwithstanding in a sentence :). Listening to your audiobooks is my only exposure to proper English these days, lol. I can't get enough!! Note: Have you thought about doing narrating for Audible? I think you're just about the best narrator on TH-cam!
I've heard almost all of these AMAZING narrations now and I'm totally blown away by the excellent work. Thank you so much for making and sharing these quality productions.
@@JDKSM My contention is that Nigel Bruce portrayed Watson as a bumbling fool a hebatudinous ninny. I know the writers were at fault, but all together not the insightful Watson I see from the original stories.
Your voice..your inflection..you have spoilt me thoroughly. There is no other narrator who can create such an atmosphere. I have enjoyed this reading so much. I do have one criticism, however, I wish you would forgo any other interests in life, and give us an audiobook...oh, at least every other day, perhaps??!!
The 40 minutes passed by so fast that I was half expecting a whole second half after hearing the quote about the east wind, even though I knew it was at the very end of this story. Beautifully read!
I was surprised to see that there was a Holmes story that I had not heard in your narration - I thought that I had gone through all of them. I vaguely remember reading this long ago, and I recall that it didn't really catch my interest then. Now, having learned more about that time, and about how the world poised on the edge of a cliff, I found it fascinating.
I'm the same re sleep and relaxation. I've read all the stories, and listened to most here again and again. I'm not a great sleeper but these are read in a way that just makes me drop off. And that is meant as a massive compliment. Such a wonderfully relaxing voice. I just begin each story where I left it the previous night. Greg Wagland reading Sherlock Holmes is the only thing I listen to in bed. It's a way of life, and relaxation.
Love love love all you do..more..much more please, I have heard everything, and will have to start again at the beginning. Thankyou so much, and love from Australia,❤️
yes, it is poignant. I get a lump in my throat whenever I listen to it, even though I know none of this ever happened and Holmes wasn't real; he's real to me :)
I've read this book while doing research about the first world war... it gives me goosebumps at first knowing this is just a pigment of imagination of Sir Arthur yet one can see how close it is to reality. I often wonder what would it be like if one 'Sherlock Holmes' did really exist. Its kind of melancholy to realize that this is the twilight of Mr. Holmes and Dr. Watson's adventure, the calm before the storm of invading german disturb the peace and serenity of the continent and British Isle. by the way... Great job Mr. Greg! An excellent narration as always. Will be looking forward for more from your chanel.
This story is one that had not been reread. Over the last 20 years,I have set about (I thought) reacquainting myself with the Canon. Somehow this one eluded me. Thank you Mr. Wagland for your excellent work. 👏👏❤️
Given the World War One time period this was written in, The War Service of Sherlock Holmes sure fits being a product of its time. And it's cool to see the third person narrative in the Holmes stories too.
Ahh, and to think I'm listening to this while we're in a the middle of a pandemic, after 2 whole years of not leaving my apartment, and with World War III on the way... I truly feel I may be one of the people who'll wither in this dystopia we're living... u_u My beloved Sherlock, and your amazing interpretation of him, Mr. Wagland, have been a refuge for me. Thank you so much! ♡
Quite a funny story to listen too, as a German, with ancesters among the prussian nobility. The description of the outer appeareance of von Bork might aswell be a discription of me. Put to the historical context it's amusing to hear an firsthand account of a British writer on a time inwich Germany was the fainting and instable European power, in a present time inwich Britain is the fainting power. Von Bork might be a caracter based on the appearance on oilpaintings of my ancesters, wich where lost in the next world war, when our private propperty in Eastern Prussia was raided by the red army, when on the other half of the front 7 of my granduncles where killed by the hands of Brits and Yankees. Nice Audiobook as always thx for that.
M K Thanks for your comment. Not quite within living memory now, but still very much alive. Make love, not war! I don't have oil paintings of my ancestors, simply crude sculptures fashioned from chips, and held together with Marmite.
Ohh, this is a very good story. It was kind of bizarre to not have Watson as the narrator but so glad he's still in the story. Very touching and patriotic words indeed on the "east wind" quote.. considering it will be the beginning of the 1st World War.😔 Nice reading, Greg! 🤩
Love this stuff, my eyes aren't what they used to be.That voice is almost hypnotic, sucks me right into the action, read with passion I think. One question. Is any abridgment carried out, just asking ? ACD Rules I think you've done him proud. The compilations are a rollercoaster ride through the darker emotions, but I'm not here for the Simpsons ( love the Simpsons btw). Thanks to all responsible. I'll be back soon 😶
Not my favourite one by Doyle, reading the so distinct Sherlock Holmes turned into a piece of British WWI propaganda, I understand why it was done though.
So glad to hear everyone falls asleep like me, sometimes I only get to hear 5 mins, but at least the stories last longer. Even listening to the same ones over again doesn't bother me, in fact it's a comfort, nice to know others feel the same too.
Hello Greg. It might be an idea to allow subscribers to make a "once off donation" for all your hard work. These are very uncertain times for some people with work etc. Just an idea.
I think the closing speech of *Holmes* is more *Doyle* than his character he sent the words through ... just my thoughts. It is a cold & horrible reality what did happen in this world later; meaning, WW1 1914 ~ 1918, though I'm no history expert.
hi John Michael (love your name) - hope everything is good where you are. we are so worried about Australia and its animal and plant life. i've been watching the vet, Chris, from Bondi and feel like a i know you guys a bit. take care :} New York, NY
"His last bow" Does it mean bowing as a performer does on the stage at the end of his performance? because it was his last case before retirement. English is not my native language. Can you answer me, please?
Yes, I guess that's the correct interpretation. His final 'stage appearance', his final adventure, would end with his last bow to the audience. Conan Doyle is declaring his intention to retire Holmes at this point. He doesn't retire, but keeps going in the series of Case-Book adventures. His Last Bow might refer to his final stroke of the bow on his violin strings but this seems a little far-fetched, don't you?
@@sherlock_holmes_magpie_audio Thank you very much. Yes, I have read His last bow and the Case-book adventures. I mainly asked because in the Arabic translation of the stories, they have chosen the other meaning of the word "bow", when it means an instrument. The title was confusing to me, I even didn't think of the violin and after re-reading the stories in English I think "His last bow to audience" is more suitable. I asked another Arab fan, who has more knowledge of English literature than me, he told me that while he doesn't think it is the most accurate interpretation of it, the Arabic title refers to the last time Sherlock Holmes holds his bow to play the violin, metaphorically indicating his last adventures. Sorry for my bad English. I couldn't drop it before asking a native English speaker about it and thank you again for satisfying my curiosity.
@@GH-bv4pg I think it's a deliberate pun. The main meaning is bow as in bend at the waist, the second meaning is he will be no longer bowing his violin.
A whopping good tale. they adapted this one for the Holmes' movie during WWII and used the east wind quote. great movie, too. I just realized we've beaten the Deutsche twice - hopefully western Europe will stay united now :}
My all time favorite might i also say, this is some of M. Wagland's best work the slow cadence and impeccable pronunciation is absolutely flawless... Nobody does it better. The voice of Sherlock Holmes is M. Wagland
This has always been one of my favourite Holmes stories, and I very much regret that Jeremy Brett and Co didn't get that far in their TV series. By the way - is anyone else puzzled by Holmes' choice of alias: Altamont, the middle name of Conan Doyle's father?
Not a bad idea Ringpop, although it might not last very long. 'Read stuff on paper into a microphone' - I could probably expand on that - everyone else does! Miaow!!! Is that how you spell Meeow???
@@sherlock_holmes_magpie_audio Quite possible. But it could also mean the communism. The Soviet revolution took place at nearly the same time with the publication of the book. Understandably it caused distress amongst most of the West. Maybe Mr Doyle wanted to talk about it. Sherlock Holmes is a patriotic character. It's possible for him to be nervous about some revolutionary actions. This idea is also in line with the notion of "changing times" at the beginning if his narrative.
I think I've now done as many as I can - up to The Creeping Man - and due to the weirdness of the copyright laws I can do another couple after Jan 1st 2020. V odd! But some of the Casebook aren't out of copyright til something like 2027 or something. Bizarre.

I agree but if you look hard you could find one you can't heard 😅.
I agree ❤. Sherlock Holmes is key 🎉.
Greg Wagland is the definitive Sherlock Holmes for me.
I'd like to hear Greg reading Dickens.
What about Basil Rathbone.? I’ve watched so many of those movies on tv that it’s hard for me to associate anyone else’s voice for Sherlock.

Thanks encryptedrite22
Appreciated
One of the best adaptation I have ever heard! Wonderful experience for me and I hope for everyone self isolated. Thanks for sharing .
I thought I'd read all the stories, this was new to me. Perhaps I'm slipping in my old age, but was a delight to listen to. Thank you much.
@charles tree I think this one is sometimes called his last bow or final bow
I seem to have missed it as well my friend. Always a treat. ✌️
The story is so amazing, I love it
Greg, you are amazing and not being paid enough I’m sure. Thank you 🙏🏻 I😍😍
How do you know that he's not being paid enough. Also talent is not something to paid for nut rather to be used productively
Great pipes and cadence. Wow
🎭 Your use of diverse accents indulges my interest in this story.
Cheers Janie.

Great work as always, Good sir. Hope to see more of such flawless narrations from you in the future.
My favorite story! Thanks for doing this one :)
Finally. Thank you! You the best!
Thank you very much this a new one to me! Dear Greg, when will you publish a new one? I adore the I digress series!!

Your reading of this story is so excellent!!
Very well read. Perfect voice and inflection. Thank you!
Thank you SOOOOOOooooooooo much, Greg! Big bathtime/bedtime treat!
I save his recordings for the exact times! Total relaxation 😊
Not my favourite one by Doyle, reading the so distinct Sherlock Holmes turned into a piece of British WWI propaganda, I understand why it was done though.
Yes. Propaganda was a lot more straightforward in those days.
If only Arthur Conan Doyle was alive till the second world war. Sherlock Holmes during the second world war would have been an amazing story!
Er... maybe.

Wonderful as always !
I look forward to these every night
Thank you !!
Have you listened to the barker and llewelyn series, not as good as Doyle but passable
Anthony Demitre yes they are fabulous too
I have listened to most and really liked them. No one compares to Sherlock and Greg! The best.
Hello Greg. It might be an idea to allow subscribers to make a "once off donation" for all your hard work. These are very uncertain times for some people with work etc. Just an idea.

Simply the BEST better then all the rest.
Hell yeah! Story time is now!! Thanks man. Happy Halloween 🎃

Wonder what Sherlock would think of the UK he helped to defeat Germany.
Sad to see its current state, Mosley had it figured out
Not convinced by your last sentence.

Thank you for the stories ,they make my life better iam able to sleep at night Jerry
Hi Jerry. Glad my stories help you sleep. I find magnesium helps too!

Good afternoon, Push
Once again, bravo mon Capitan, thank you for your sharing your gift in offering another Sir ACD story. Holmes and Watson are again afoot!
Thanks Scotticus. Why can't they just put their feet up and watch the box!
Astute. The rendition by You Mr. Wagner is mesmerizing. This story is so pertinent to today's situations globally.
at the end of this story Sherlock does a speech, which sounds like or close to the one that Basil Rathbone does at the end of the war time movie
The German spy pays Holmes with a check. I would think that espionage would be a cash business.
Wow, thank you!
Silly that Germans speak with each other in German accented English
You're not wrong!
It is an English story written for English speakers . The reader is emphasising this for those who cannot read the text.
Thanks
Elementary
Back to reality ❣️.
Not again!
Question? Did u dress up like Sherlock Holmes for Holloween?
There's an east wins coming Watson I thought that was just on Sherlock the TV program and Watson never told this one
It's in the book Micah!
I think it was transplanted from WWI to WWII in the Rathbone Bruce film - can't remember which one!
Ooh been so long. Lovely as I'm drifting off to sleep. After a sad hectic weekend. Thank you for your voice.
