Sherlock & Co. was created by Joel Emery, directed by Adam Jarrell, and features Paul Waggott as Dr. John Watson and Harry Attwell as Sherlock Holmes.[2]

The podcast was produced by Holy Smokes Audio and launched in October 2023, with episodes released weekly. By returning to the episodic nature of Doyle's original tales, Sherlock & Co. hopes to appeal to fans of the classic detective genre.
