    The production was well done with a number of interesting characters. Poirot comes out of retirement once again to help a damsel in distress. Enjoyed the development of the storyline and the surprise ending.

    This was a fun production. Agatha Christie rarely disappoints. Had to get used to the depiction of Hercule Poirot. Enjoyable, yet short.

    Agatha Christie very rarely disappoints me. Enjoyed this very much. Poriot has the enviable grey cells which get a work out again in this plot of intrigue.

Love having someone read me a story. Fires in the hearth, rain on the roof, sunny days and surf. Good friends, good food and J S Bach.

  • Classic Russian Dramas Starring Laurence Olivier, Orson Welles, Michael Redgrave and Trevor Howard, Volume 1

    "For the Voices alone."

    1 of 1 helpful votes

    Stories adapted for radio and performed by great actors. As such, I find them a good introduction to the stories as written by the authors.

    The remastering comes over well on my pc speakers.

    A joy to hear Orson Wells and Sir Michael Redgraves..
