Sherlock Gnomes premiere: A chat with James McAvoy, his co-stars and the film’s creators

Following the box office success of their first animated garden adventure, the team behind Gnomeo and Juliet premiere its equally star-studded sequel Sherlock Gnomes in London. The long-awaited children’s movie brings back the familiar literary lovers alongside a host of new characters in an ode to Arthur Conan Doyle’s oft-adapted detective. We spoke to some of the big names behind the voices – James McAvoy, Stephen Merchant and Jamie Demetriou – as well as finding out what to expect from the film’s creators – producers Steve Hamilton Shaw and Carolyn Soper and director John Stevenson. We also heard about what the upcoming feature means to actor Blake Harrison and chef Monica Galetti.
