    • Trivia
      Following the success of their version of Why Didn't They Ask Evans? (1980), the same production team reunited for this Agatha Christie adaptation, including Pat Sandys, Tony Wharmby and Jack Williams. Both productions also included the actors: John Gielgud, James Warwick, and Robert Longden.
    • Goofs
      The raised roman numeral for the "eleven" o'clock position on the hoods is reversed reading 'IX' instead of 'XI' during the first meeting shown. Later in the movie it is corrected, but they didn't make new hoods; instead they inked over the raised leading 'I' and added a gold paint 'I' after the 'X'.
    • Quotes

      Marquis of Caterhan: Inconsiderate, that's what I call it, distinctly inconsiderate.

      Lady Eileen 'Bundle' Brent: People have to die somewhere.

      Marquis of Caterhan: Well they don't need to die in my house.

      Lady Eileen 'Bundle' Brent: Lots of people have, masses of stuffy old great grandfathers and grandmothers.

      Marquis of Caterhan: That's quite different. Of course I expect family to die here. But I do object to strangers!

    Great TV movie !!
    I recently saw the DVD of this film and i must say I Loved It ! Campbell and Warwick are great and John Gielgud is funny. The joy of movies like this is that you can actually understand everything that 's been said because they don't use background music as soon as things become more quiet. As i am from The Netherlands and only could get a copy with no subtitles this is a very great plus. If you like the Partners in crime series or the A C TV movies Secret Adversary or Why Didn't They Ask Evans ? Then you'll like this one as well ! Of course it also provides the things we have come to expect from an Agatha Christie movie. There are several twists in the plot that will leave you guessing who the killer is.
