#SHERLOCKSUNDAY : THE CASE OF THE SABOTAGED DANCING MEN EPISODE

#SHERLOCKSUNDAY Here's a little tale, a story, a case that would puzzled the great #SHERLOCKHOLMES himself maybe. THE CASE OF THE SABOTAGED EPISODE, concerns the events that unfolded live before the British television viewing public on the night of MONDAY 16th SEPTEMBER 1968. When the unsuspecting viewers settled down to watch the latest episode of the BBC's 'SHERLOCK HOLMES' series, starring Peter Cushing as Holmes and Nigel Stock as Dr Watson. Back in 1968, this series was not only the BBC's first Sherlock outing in colour, but it was afforded the luxury of being broadcast on an early form of video tape. Any outdoor location work, was shot on film and inserted, edited into the finished EDITED video programme.

AT THE POINT of completion, each programme existed in two forms, an edited version, with all studio sequences edited in order, just as you would see in an broadcast at home. The other version would be what is known as B ROLL footage, this consists of the entire recorded programme in a very rough form, with sometimes many recordings of the same scene, complete with mistakes, outakes and errors. OUR STORY BEGINS....

PETER CUSHING : HAVE BIKE. WILL TRAVEL!

The ring of a bell, the rattle of a chain and deer stalker on head, Sherlock Holmes? Who could this be, out on their bicycle this fresh and windy morning in Whitstable in 1988?

Peter Cushing loved his bike and locals loved to see him out and about town on it. He purchased it from the Herberts Bicycle shop in Whitstable. (see photo)  After he retired this was Cushing's main mode of transport for getting around town and his trips to the Tudor Tea rooms for his lunch. Often spotted, he whisked around the alleyways and streets of the town, only giving up his bike when he had a nasty fall in the Whitstable High Street trying to avoid a dog in the road. This resulted in a broken hip. It happened on the same day as Cushing was given the news of his O.B.E from The Queen! A day of mixed blessings indeed..
