Where were past Sherlock Holmes adaptations filmed?
Over the years, there has been an almost endless stream of Sherlock Holmes adaptations, all of which have been filmed in a variety of locations.
In the 1984 series, starring Jeremy Brett, the filming was based at Granada Studios in Manchester and some location shoots took place in nearby Cheshire and Liverpool.
The 2009 film, starring Robert Downey Jr and Jude Law, had easily the most far-reaching filming schedule with locations across the UK from Manchester and Liverpool to London as well as Brooklyn in New York.
2015's Mr Holmes, which starred Sir Ian McKellen as an ageing Sherlock Holmes, stayed closer to home and boasted filming locations which included London, the South Coast of England as well as the Historic Docks at Chatham in Kent.
And of course, there's the world-famous BBC series, Sherlock, which actually used Cardiff as its base, which is also the home of Doctor Who's production, while also filming some key scenes in London itself.
Enola Holmes, which was filmed in London and the West Midlands, is available to stream now on Netflix after releasing on September 23rd, 2020.
