Agatha Christie's Hercule Poirot (David Suchet) travels to rural England to solve this TV series mystery. Faithful sidekick, Captain Hastings (Hugh Fraser) goes along, and they soon find Scotland Yard present after a murder. Chief Inspector Japp (Philip Jackson) thinks he has an open and shut case. If one were to believe the rumors and gossip that would be true. But, naturally, Poirot doesn't go along.
His keen eye gets to the bottom of the murder by poisoning. And, the clever Poirot has to use a scheme up his sleeve to expose the real murderer. After all, he has no proof.
This is a wonderful addition to a collection of one of the best mystery series ever made for TV. Agatha Christie's Hercule Poirot series, with David Suchet and company, is without a doubt the most entertaining of all the mystery series.
The humor that starts this film has Hastings sitting on the floor and doing deep breathing exercises. Poirot is looking out the window at the rain, and shows some irritation on his face. He turns and walks over to Hastings. Poirot, "Are you feeling better, Hastings? Hastings, "Yes...Yes... Takes the pressure off the pancreas, you see." Poirot, "Ah, the pancreas is nothing. Of the digestive organs, the liver is the key. Look after the liver and life will take care of itself."
