I don’t think it ever occurred to me that Arthur Conan Doyle‘s lifespan had convergence with the period in which film, particularly film with audio, was a common technology.
I certainly don’t think of him being alive until 1930–in my mind he’s all about gaslight, and certainly set in the period well before WWI.
However, reality is, as is often the case, not the same thing as my mind.
In my mind he was also a bit less Scottish, but I prefer the reality here I think. Now reading those books where Doyle is a character is going to be a different experience.
