Absolutely Stunning

This drama version of these books was wonderfully done. I felt pulled deep into the stories and found them so intense sometimes I couldn't stop them until I'd heard all of the story. For anyone that is a avid reader of Agatha Christie will love this dramatization.

BBC thank you

I know everyone of these stories practically by heart ❤, but I bought it because I hadn't heard them for awhile. I was so impressed by the performances I know a few things might have been changed but the whole experience was like hearing it for the first time. Well done radio BBC or whomever does these recordings. I absolutely loved it. You must listen for yourselves.

Interesting and very entertaining

It was a singularly enjoyable book of detective fiction. The action was captivating and the actors so true to form.

John Moffat Does It All

This is a striking example of a performance that “improves” the material on which it is based. Many listeners probably have their own favorite film/television/audio/theatrical interpretation of Poirot, but these BBC radio plays are first rate.

Wonderful

It makes me wish I could sit down with Agatha Christie and learn from her.
