I wouldn't say that he is a bad interviewer......He seems to know where to stop being too nosy.....and besides there is a generation gap between them..anyway nothing beats British humor..I wish the Chinese had some of it...only some!

Just love his voice!!

@TheBlackWhirlwind - From what I've read, David Burke left after 2 seasons because he wanted to spend more time with his recently born son; he actually recommended Edward Hardwick for the part.

On the whole the novels and short stories are still superior because Doyle's writing was superlative (some episodes adapted better than others, though I forget which ones) but Brett really pulled off the Holmes of the books, and these are definitely the most faithful and accurate renditions. Incidentally, does anyone know why David Burke left/was replaced?

I met Jeremy the day he did this interview and he was a wonderful guy! So sad that someone so great is not with us any more! Edward Hardwicke too! RIP guys!!!

/Dracula/?! Oh my word. How brilliant would that have been to watch. I wish...
Derek Jameson does talk a little too much for my liking (considering he is interviewer, not interviewee), but even if he had not spoken a word during this whole interview it would not have been enough of Jeremy.
God bless him.

@barefoot55 To be fair, both of them portrayed Holmes differently, it's to tune with the modern times. Still, I prefer Jeremy, despite Robert being one of my favourite actors.

Oh I love his smile. I wish he hadn't kept his mouth covered for much of the interview. He was so humble. <3 <3 <3

One of the world's greatest actors meets one of its worst interviewers. Fascinating.

@lucu01 I enjoyed it, too, but it really isn't Sherlock Holmes. What's worse thought is Jude Law's Watson.
Jeremy is bueatiful inside and out and a true gentleman. The interviewer should not have pressed on about his illness. It's fine to ask if they agreed on that before the interview but to keep on asking to the point where Jeremy want to change the subject. Ouch. I am just glad he was such good friends with Edward but I think he would have needed a Watson to protect him a bit his whole life long.

How lovely Jeremy is! He has such charm and grace. He could have easily got angry or offended but he was wonderful. I love him as a performer, but seeing this has made me appreciate him even more as a human being (if that doesn't sound too gushy!). What a lovely man.
