The fourth issue of the Sherlock Holmes Magazine is available now and includes a wealth of interesting information for avid fans and casual followers of the Great Detective.
Though not directly related to Doctor Who, we figure this will nonetheless be of interest to DWC readers; indeed, the magazine, edited by Adrian Braddy, has proved hugely popular so far, and rightly so.
