Thank you for the lovely episode as always. I can't read sort of episode by myself...but your short summary every time and your reading aloud are so helpful to understand the story. Thanks! I enjoyed it so much.

[@janieforb]

This podcast brings back a lot of memory and enjoyment I used to have for Sherlock Holmes series. Thank you so much. So now I'm rewatching all seven seasons played by Jeremey Brett, I used to watch the dubbed version when I was in primary school on my small TV. And what makes me even happier now is that I can understand what the characters are saying better.

[@vanessaq.5613]

The episode 30 of LEP was brilliant and Sherlock Holmes had been investigating the case which happened in episode 29. I can't help listening to those podcasts again and again!

[@dheerajvarthi4657]

I am listening to Sherlock holmes story for the very first time , I understood the complete story just because of your narrative style & making the plot clear to everyone after pausing it for a while , Very grateful to you ❤

[@ValBrindilles]

It is a real pleasure to finally understand a story in another language than his own, especially since the voice of the narrator is sublime. Thank you very much 🤗

[@deborahkotovskyart3048]

It made me happy to discover English classics on your channel and you did such a good job. Thank you very much, Luke!

[@liocliff]

Thank you Luke for these podcast stories. This one was really more difficult to understand because of the old vocabulary but your summaries definitely helped o lot. I really like these podcasts with the text we can read at the same time. So thank you very much.

[@OliaMartynevska]

Dear Luke, you are a wonderful reader. Would love to hear other Sherlock Holmes Stories read by you. Thank you

[@martyh5386]

Without your explanation and a summary of the story, I can't understand it because of the old fashion language, which makes it really difficult to comprehend. Thank you Luke.

[@alinailmuner2877]

Arthur Conan Doyle and you are such talented people! That's great!

[@Nguyennamtranofficial]

Thank you for making this story. It is one of my favorite story of Sherlock Homes.

[@takayo4168]

Thank you so much for providing us such a great video! I just managed to follow the story through your summarization, but really enjoyed this intriguing detective story. I suppose, the video version is much more exciting than the podcast version, because your face expression makes the story telling more thrilling and captivating!

[@VictorJavierRodriguez-fh9vz]

Until now I was not reading or listening to any Holmes history and this history and your voice convinced me to read more.

[@user-mu3vk5fm5g]

Hi Luke. Your channel and this video that KZbin recommended me is one of the best findings on the Internet for a long time. After ten minutes of watching I have recommended it to my students. Because you read the story and explain it very well and there is also a text in front of the eyes to help. That makes understanding it quite easy even despite the 19th century language. So what you do is really helpful for the foreign learners. Thank you very much.

[@Kaderlid13]

Hi Luke, I’ve loved Dr. Watson’s Sherlock Holmes Stories for decades! Your voice and intonation is a perfect match to the stories! If you’d do a whole series of them, I’d surely buy them! 🥰 Heartfelt greetings from Germany! ❤

[@vvaskey]

Hi Luke! It was a great and funny episode. I found it very entertaining. Your facial expression and your voice are perfect. You're doing good lessons, I'm so grateful for this:) I got around 70% of the story. Your short comments helped me a lot! Thank you🩷 Please make more videos like that 🙏

[@reemamer1237]

Hello Luke I have been watching your podcast for 2 months and I love them so much I recommend your podcast to around 7 students every day :) thank you for your effort 🙏

This was a really nice episode! Thank you from Berlin for all these nice lessons! My English pronunciation has improved so much! Not only that, I search for terms much less often! And I really like the humour and your short dialogues from the "side stage". Another ninja coming out of the shadows :-) I am a conference interpreter for French and German and lived in Paris for a long time. Now I would love to book an English course in Paris so that what I always say comes true: "Luke, my English teacher!" I have also already "infected" my sweetheart! Merci beaucoup et bonne continuation et tout le bonheur pour toi et ta petite famille !
