In tonight’s story, Sherlock Holmes faces one of his most chilling and tragic cases. When young John Openshaw receives an envelope containing five dried orange pips and a cryptic note, Holmes is drawn into a web of fear, revenge, and an old American secret society.
Despite Holmes’ sharp intellect and quick action, the case slips through his fingers—and ends in sorrow.
This is The Five Orange Pips by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle: a haunting tale of fate, injustice, and a rare moment where even the great detective is too late.
So settle in, get comfortable, and let the rain fall gently outside as we enter the shadowy world of Baker Street...

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
