The War

Season 1 Episode 3 | 3m 34s

Dressed in military attire, Arthur heads to the front line during the first world war. Much to Arthur's disappointment, he was visiting as the author of Sherlock Holmes, not as a soldier fighting for his country. After meeting and greeting the troops at the trenches, Arthur turns his attention to devising a new Sherlock Holmes story – a spy novel set just before the war titled "His Last Bow."
