Hugh Bonneville Narrates Sherlock Holmes

Join Hugh Bonneville on a thrilling journey through Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's most celebrated Sherlock Holmes mysteries – read in their original, masterful form.

Hugh says on the new podcast series:

The Sherlock Holmes stories have been part of the literary landscape for generations, and I’m thrilled to be bringing them to life for listeners this Christmas season.

The carefully curated tales in this series are superb examples of Conan Doyle’s craft as he draws his audience into the world of the legendary detective. From the smoke-filled sitting room at 221B Baker Street to the foggy streets of London, the windswept moors and beyond, we’ll follow the master detective as he uses his unique powers of deduction to unravel baffling mysteries, set against the backdrop of Victorian England.

All the classic Holmesian elements are here: locked room conundrums, cunning disguises, and twisted conspiracies. Stories made for winter nights by the fire.
