Coules specializes in mystery and science fiction audio and radio drama, and has written a number of adaptations, most notably as the head writer of the Sherlock Holmes radio series (1989–1998) starring Clive Merrison as Holmes and Michael Williams as Watson (the first time the entire canon had been adapted with the same two lead actors throughout).

As superb as ever. This is the first time I've realised it's Brian Blessed playing 'The Crooked Man' (with an unexpectedly pathos-filled performance). The Musgrave Ritual might be my favourite of all the short stories in the Merrison / Williams canon.
