	SECOND HOLMES was a series of six shows brought to radio by the
	British Broadcasting Corporation in early 1983.  These were humorous
	cases of detective Stamford Holmes, the grandson of Sherlock Holmes (???),
	played by Peter Egan and his counterpart, Dr. Watson, the grandson
	of Sherlock Holmes's companion, played by Jeremy Nicholas.
	Stamford Holmes is a reluctant consulting detective in a modern age
	where the crimes are mundane, not offering challenge.  Although he
	has his grandfather's ability to see detail and use them to arrive
	at conclusions, he gets quickly bored by his cases.  Were it not for
	Dr. Watson pushing and prodding him, Holmes would be off on some other
	enterprise.  Watson is more the romantic, longing to participate in
	detective adventures of the days of grandfather, believing the cases
	at hand will prove Holmes' worth.
