It's the 27th December and Sherlock Holmes has a mystery to solve. Who is the unlucky owner of the festive goose dropped on Tottenham Court Road on Christmas
morning - and what do they know about the priceless gem that was hidden inside it
In this classic Christmas tale, Holmes and Watson take us on a riotous ride through London in search of the answer to a most singular and whimsical problem.
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (1859-1930) was born in Edinburgh and studied medicine at the university there. He combined a career as a doctor with writing, but he is best known for creating the fictional detective Sherlock Holmes, who first appeared in A Study in Scarlet in 1887, and went on to feature in three further novels and fifty-six short stories. Conan Doyle died in 1930, at the age of seventy-one.
