Sherlock Holmes (Rathbone) smuggles the Swiss scientist Dr Franz Tobel (William Post Jr) from under the noses of the Gestapo and brings him to England. Tobel has invented a revolutionary bomb that could hand victory to whichever side has it. Tobel tells RAF Bomber Command that, to protect the bomb's secrets, he has split details of its manufacture and assembly between four fellow Swiss scientists. Unfortunately, Tobel is then abducted by Professor Moriarty (Atwill). Luckily, Tobel had the foresight to leave a note for Holmes, in pictographic code, naming the other scientists and giving their locations. And so Holmes, Dr Watson (Bruce) and Inspector Lestrade (Dennis Hoey) set out to stop the secret weapon falling into the hands of the Nazis. With Mary Gordon as Mrs Hudson.

As he did in Rebel without a Cause, Ray portrays James as a rebel rather than a simple outlaw, driven to a life of crime by Northern sympathisers after the Civil War, as the film follows the last 18 years of his life.

When a young Tolkien (Harry Gilby) and his brother are orphaned, they're sent to live with a kind, wealthy woman while they complete their education. Tolkien is an artistic soul with a particular talent for language, but his passions are cut short in adulthood when the First World War breaks out. Tolkien (Hoult) and his old schoolfriends all enlist to fight, and the trauma of his experiences at the Battle of the Somme stay with him forever. As do his feelings for Edith Bratt (Collins), a fellow orphan who he meets after his mother's death. Flitting between his formative years at school and his life as a young adult exploring his passions and experiencing the harsh realities of war, Tolkien relays the great inspirations behind some of the most famous works of literature ever written.

Sam Bell (Rockwell) is coming to the end of his luna-based contract. He's been up there on his own for nearly three years, with nothing but a sardonic-sounding computer with a smiley face named GERTY (voiced by Kevin Spacey) for company. Suffice to say, Sam's losing it a bit. Let's hope it pays well, right? Anyway, as he approaches the end of his stint he gets a message from his wife back on Earth, Tess (Dominique McElligott), saying she thinks the break's been good for them. Then he starts seeing a woman (Kaya Scodelario) around the base. Then he crashes his moon buggy. Then he hears GERTY talking about him behind his back. It's safe to assume that this is more action than he's seen in three years. But things are about to get even weirder. Is it just the effect of extreme isolation on his mind or is there really a plot against him? Also featuring Benedict Wong and Matt Berry. Edited for content.
