I ABSOLUTELY ABSOLUTELY LOVE HIS VOICE!!!!! I laugh often when I see stories about so called-artists, celebrities. This generation with their lack of knowledge, talent, true talent, is hopelessly lost. This man, is a true talent. His mastery of the English language is not to be matched. His intonation, clever use of pauses is unsurpassed. What a privilege for me to listen to him, I do daily. He could read a microwave’s manual and I would listen to it. Sir, my sincere gratitude. Humbly yours, Luz.

As long as you're the reader, the phone book would satisfy. Great New Year to you!

"I found him standing before the fire with that look upon his face which I have seen only once or twice in our acquaintance. A look which I may call a look of absolute concattonation of inductive and deductive rattiocination." This is priceless! If "imitation is the sincerest form of flattery," what is this? Brilliant! And, of course, after listening to you read the entire Sherlock Holmes canon, it is even more uproarious and actually believable. My compliments to Bret Harte and you!!!

What an absolute treat to see the man behind the voices. I never enjoyed audio books before finding this channel because they all ran together and I couldn’t tell which character said what; when. That is not a problem here. As a person with hearing issues, I thank you.

Your marvelous and consistent voice work for the denizens of Baker St., regardless of who is writing them, lends the Holmes pastiches and parodies a level of authenticity they couldn't achieve on their own. It's everything an author could ask for!

I can`t describe how excited I get when I receive a notification from magpie audio with a Mr. Wagland marvelous British accent performance, I enjoy listening to your clear accent so much, I hope you keep on uploading more of your most appreciated work, thank you very much sir

Amazing to actually see you delivering one of these performances (with your customary brilliance). Thank you Greg! Having said that, I had previously imagined you reading these as you paced back and forth in front of the fireplace in a smoking jacket, puffing thoughtfully on a pipe, and sadly that illusion has now been shattered.

I plan on looping your narrations until the YT algorithm finally notices its blunder and makes this the 1M follower channel that it deserves to be.

Kudos for reading that with a straight face! I kept laughing and rolling my eyes 😆 So many crazy little details packed into one short story. The sealskin 😂 The style and vocabulary copy those of sir ACD´s surprisingly well. I enjoyed it, except the part where Hemlock Jones yells. It felt somehow too much, because Holmes never yells. But what an idea, to name the detective after the first recorded case of poisoning in Europe 😂 Sincere greetings from Czechia, Greg, many thanks for your work, and happy Christmas! 😊

Most delightful. :)

Greg, thank you! Wonderful delivery as always. I listened to this while doing the ironing and twice I had to stop because I was laughing so much. You read it absolutely straight, which was perfect.

Delightful! It was great fun to see you at work. And you did it with a straight face (until the final moments)! Yes, great to see you but above all, for me, it is your voice, rich and resonant, with all the pauses in just the right places, your intonation that is without fault, and narration that is matchless that I so admire and enjoy. You are like part of the family to many of us.❤️ With deepest appreciation for your gifts as a voice actor. Thank you for this Christmas offering and the very best, Greg, to you and yours. (I am curious if you have, in fact, any plans to narrate any phone books or directories in 2023???!!)

My Dearest Greg. It's so wonderful to watch You read to Me at last. You have calmed Me into sleep for many years now. I have often wondered, if You just read it all bit by bit?. Or all at once. I'm so impressed that You are able to read it all at once!. You are amazing!. I'm sure that Sir Arthur, would be amazed at how You can tell His tales so perfectly. The differences between just Sherlock and Watson has eased Me so many times let alone all of the other characters and accents. Men and women. I am truly flabbergasted. Many thanks to You. For soothing Me on so many nights, and days. Much love James Tea. ❤

This is a delightful addition to you collection. Your familiar and truly excellent Holmesian voice makes it even more enjoyable. Seeing you reading it is an extra treat. 🎩 Also, your turn to the camera at the final moment is exquisite. (I bow humbly before your transcendence ... etc. 😉) "I sat aghast at his penetration ..." Great line. This parody is quite funny and insightful.

Thank you and Happy Christmas!!! I truly enjoy hearing and seeing you!! Bravo👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏❣️

Have you done any of Doyle's Brigadier Gerard stories? They're very funny.

Hi! There are still 2 sherlock holmes stories left that you haven't done yet, from canon of doyle. 1) The Adventure of the Veiled Lodger. 2) The Adventure of Shoscombe Old Place. I have listened to all of your stories! Absolutely love your videos!

Thank you so much for a new one, I listen to these everyday, you're the best.

What a nice idea for a new format! :) So excited to listen to the story, as always

I must say I enjoyed your narration with the new format. I wasn't old enough to listen to the original broadcasts of the radio shows from the 30s to the early 60s. What a fantastic form of entertainment it is. Far superior to television. Most people are unaware of the talent and skill required to narrate a story with inflection and do it flawlessly. The voice actors were a special breed . I tip my hat to you , I doubt there aren't many skilled voice actors left. It's passing will be a terrible loss. You definitely have a gift.

Well, it's supposed to be AI very soon. Some people say it won't be long before you won't be able to tell between hooman beans and Amstrad desktops. Not sure about that. Especially out beyond the Smart Cities they'll always be a need for a storyteller in the dystopian badlands reading The Odyssey for an old tin of sardines.

That was fantastic. I was going to write a bunch of stuff, but I'll stick with thank you. It was nice to laugh during a Sherlock.

I loved it! Bret Harte really had it down pat...and so did you! A little fun at Sherlock's expense...I'm sure he didn't mind. Thank you for all you give us and have a lovely holiday season.

Love this new thing that you are doing!

Good parody requires a worthwhile subject, so I suspect these were hilarious at the time, as they certainly are now, because the characters of Holmes and Watson were so well known, so distinctive, and indeed so extensively beloved.

Fun, I'd never heard of this before and btw I love that we now get to see you during the videos 🥰

While it was novel to SEE Greg reading, I must admit that I prefer the usual no look. There is a theatrical magic in the voice(s) that is slightly diminished by actually seeing the one reader. Of course we know it is one reader but somehow without the visual it seems like a cast. That said, it was also good to see the reader this once.

Another great read. Love listening to you read. Only thing is, when I listen to anyone else's audiobook I can scarce stand it.
