A Sexton Blake filmography.
Sexton Blake was featured in short films from the very start of the movie business and continued to do so throughout the silent era. By the mid-1930s he made the jump to sound, and though far fewer (but far longer) Blake movies were produced, at least their quality improved. The great detective also inspired countless stage productions, a number of radio serials and, in the 1970s, two television series. Sexton Blake was portrayed by a great many actors over the years but none ever became 'the definitive Blake', which perhaps explains why the detective's career on stage, screen and the airwaves is largely forgotten today.
