Stephen Mangan is to play Sir Arthur Conan Doyle in a new ITV Encore drama about the writer’s friendship with escapologist Harry Houdini. Houdini & Doyle will dramatise the real-life relationship between the two men and their disagreements over their differing beliefs on the supernatural.
Conan Doyle, who created Sherlock Holmes in 1886, has been previously portrayed in dramas by many prominent actors including Ian Richardson in
Murder Rooms, Richard Wilson in
The Reichenbach Falls and most recently Martin Clunes in
Arthur and George.
