“I Was Terrified at the Start” – Hero Fiennes Tiffin Talks Young Sherlock & Penny Farthing Stunts

At the Young Sherlock World Premiere, Hero Fiennes Tiffin speaks to Colin Hart about stepping into the iconic role of Sherlock Holmes — and the pressure that comes with it. Admitting “I was terrified at the start because I am a Sherlock fan,” Fiennes Tiffin explains how working alongside Guy Ritchie and an “incredible cast, incredible crew” helped him push the nerves aside. He opens up about imposter syndrome, self-doubt and how caring deeply about the role ultimately made him proud of what the team achieved: “We ain’t done a half bad job.” From the jaw-dropping Victorian sets to the dynamic cast chemistry, Fiennes Tiffin reflects on the honour and privilege of portraying such a legendary character — and even reveals whether he really rode that penny farthing (spoiler: “They are surprisingly dangerous!”). Young Sherlock streams exclusively on Prime Video from 4 March 2026. Interviews for Prime Video's Young Sherlock series starring Hero Fiennes Tiffin, Dónal Finn, Zine Tseng, Joseph Fiennes, Natascha McElhone, Max Irons, Colin Firth & directed by Guy Ritchie. Colin Hart and Madison Hart were on the red carpet. Plot: In Young Sherlock, a charismatic and defiantly youthful Holmes crosses paths with the enigmatic James Moriarty, pulling him into a murder investigation that threatens not only his freedom but the very shape of his future. What begins as a single case spirals into a globe-trotting conspiracy, culminating in an explosive confrontation destined to alter the course of his life. Set against a richly textured Victorian England and stretching into adventures abroad, the story reveals the anarchic early days of a boy not yet tempered into Baker Street’s master of deduction. The series will be released on 4 March 2026 exclusively on Prime Video. #YoungSherlock #HeroFiennesTiffin #GuyRitchie #ColinHart #SherlockHolmes #WorldPremiere #PrimeVideo #RedCarpet #TVInterviews #HeyUGuys --------------------- For syndication or usage opportunities please contact [email protected]. --------------------- More from HeyUGuys: Website ► http://HeyUGuys.com Follow us on Twitter ► http://twitter.com/HeyUGuys Subscribe here! ► http://bit.ly/HeyUGuysYTSub Facebook ► http://facebook.com/HeyUGuys Instagram ► http://instagram.com/HeyUGuysOfficial TikTok ► https://www.tiktok.com/@heyuguysofficial ---------------------
