Penned by the same writer who wrote last year's surprise package Agatha and The Truth of Murders, but a different actress in the lead role. Lynsey Marshall steps in to replace Ruth Bradley, and does a fine job.
It's a very slick production, it looks great, it's well filmed, and very well written. It was a good old fashioned mystery. I love the way they penned a situation for Christie. Stunning location work.
It more then made up for the lack of Agatha Christie drama on the BBC this Christmas. If only this had been transmitted on Christmas Eve or Boxing Day.
Is this a trend? Will there be another one next year? On this evidence I hope so.

What a beautifully made film. I can't recommend this enough. It's stylish and funny with great performances and a sense of scale and history. Lovely.

Simple Plot but very Agatha Christie
I think it was an excellent performance and although plot was simple it made a great pre- Christmas treat.
