Update on Arthur and George on Masterpiece Mystery Theatre

Arthur and George will start on Masterpiece Mystery on September 6, 2015 and run through September 20, 2015.

It is based on a book of the same name by Julian Barnes and is based on a true story.

Arthur refers to Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and George Aldaji.

Blurb from PBS website:

"Martin Clunes (Doc Martin) stars as Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, creator of Sherlock Holmes, in a three-part MASTERPIECE Mystery! adaptation of the novel by Julian Barnes. Outraged by injustice to an Anglo-Indian solicitor, the famed author uses the methods of his own fictional detective to get at the truth. Co-starring are Arsher Ali (The Missing) as George Edalji; and Charles Edwards (Downton Abbey) as Alfred Wood, Sir Arthur’s real-life “Dr. Watson.”

Looks promising.

If you are wondering "what about some books"! I am at various points of three books and hope to finish them soon.

We have our Mystery Book Club coming up this week and should get some good recommendations for books set in Australia and that part of the world.  I will let you know what they are.
