David Suchet is the perfect Poirot, 15 October 2002
Author: Bruce Elder from Kiama, Australia

David Suchet makes a perfect Hercule Poirot. He has just the right level of doggedness and prissiness. This is the Agatha Christie classic (made into a rather ordinary film with Peter Ustinov) in which Poirot has to solve the murder of an actress on a holiday island (the setting this time in an island off the coast of Britain) and literally everyone on the island has a motive for murder. The key to the plot is all in the timing. This is Poirot perfect and lots of good fun.
