Ep. 12: Secret Sherlock

from Stephen Fry's Victorian Secrets

Sherlock Holmes is one of the most fully realised and enduring fictional characters ever created. His personality and the details of his intellect, his manners, his dress, his habits, his appetites, his techniques and his methods created, from the beginning, a place for him in the public consciousness of a kind that had perhaps never been experienced in literature. This episode examines the evidence that he may have had a secret sex life, and we use Holmes’s unrepentant use of narcotics to enter the secret (and not so secret) world of Victorian drug use.
