Roy Marsden

Marsden's credits are numerous and span a half century of widely, and wildly, different genres and character types. Not the least is his portrayal of the mysterious and mystical character John Stockton in the long-running BBC series _The Case-Book of Sherlock Holmes (1991)_ (qv) starring 'Jeremy Brett' (qv). In _The Case-Book of Sherlock Holmes: The Last Vampyre (1993)_ (qv) Marsden brings, literally to life, Sir Conan Doyle's take on the ages' old, indeed historic, legend most known to modern viewers through Bram Stoker's 1897 Gothic horror novel "Dracula."::John Spencer Yantiss
