A hugely enjoyable dramatisation of the Conan Doyle detective classic. Holmes and Watson try to unravel the mystery of the death of Sir Charles Baskerville, the only clue left being the 'footprints of a gigantic hound'! The legend of the hound which has brought terror to the Baskerville family for generations brings Sherlock Holmes up against a formidable adversary and sends Dr Watson to a bleak and lonely moor where it is all too easy to believe that something not of this world is intent on driving his friend to a foul and hideous death! Carl Miller's inventive and entertaining adaptation for the stage of Conan Doyle's classic is perfect for use in English and Drama lessons. The teacher resources provide a wealth of ideas for further study with reading, writing and speaking and listening activitries.
