Arthur Conan Doyle (writer)

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (22 May 1859 - 7 July 1930https://www.arthurconandoyle.com/biography.html) was a British writer and physician.
Doyle was credited with creating the character of Sherlock Holmes on the Big Finish audio anthology The Worlds of Big Finish. Released in 2015, eighty-five years after his death, the attribution made Doyle one of the earliest-born people to be credited on a Doctor Who universe release, third only to William Shakespeare and Oscar Wilde. Big Finish also produced a Sherlock Holmes audio series in which Holmes was voiced by Nicholas Briggs, who also voiced him in The Worlds of Big Finish. Doyle received sole writing credit for three releases in the range, namely The Speckled Band, The Final Problem & The Empty House, and The Hound of the Baskervilles.
As a famous historical figure, Doyle is also one of the few people involved with Doctor Who behind-the-scenes not only to exist in-universe but also to appear in performed media played by someone other than themselves. He was voiced by Steven Miller in the 2014 audio story The Monstrous Menagerie as well as having a handful of other appearances in prose.
