Lifelong Agatha Christie Fan: "This program was actually BETTER than the book!"
1 September 2023
Been a fan of Agatha Christie for >40 years. This is one of the few instances where the show was better than the book. As usual, Suchet delivers, as do the other cast members, like Tim Curry, Elizabeth McGovern, and John Hannah. The plot keeps the viewer guessing what will happen next, as opposed to the book and other productions; which were boring as hell. I may be the only fan of this episode and that's fine.

The Peter Ustinov production with Carrie Fisher, John Gielgud, David Soul, Piper Laurie, and Lauren Baccall was a 1/10 for me. I had high hopes because this was true to the book (which I was not a fan of) but then it fell flat on its face.

All of the ITV Studios productions are high quality, artistically made and breath taking.
