In this episode of Public Domain Video Theater, host Adam Graham is joined by special guest Tom Fox, founder of the ⁠Compliance Podcast Network⁠ and host of ⁠Adventures in Compliance⁠— a show where Fox explores each Sherlock Holmes story through the lens of ethics and compliance. Together, they delve into one of Ronald Howard’s early television portrayals of the great detective.

Episode Overview (No Spoilers)

“The Mother Hubbard Case” begins as a seemingly routine London mystery — a missing fiancé, a concerned family, and a cryptic note about a lost child. But under Holmes’s keen observation, this ordinary disappearance unfurls into something far more sinister. As Holmes and Watson investigate, they uncover a chilling pattern of vanishing men, a trail that winds through deserted houses and shadowed motives. What begins as a simple missing-person case evolves into a tense unraveling of compassion twisted by desperation.

Original Air Date: December 20, 1954
