The Double Clue is not one of the best of the series, I for one would have preferred it with things resolved, as touching as the final scene was for a couple of viewings I was left underwhelmed from not knowing for certain who it was and how it was committed, it's all speculative and wondering who's wrong and who's right. It is interesting however for how Poirot is written here, instead of the deduction and snooping he is reacting to his equal and what is also interesting is how he goes about it. Once again, it is sumptuously photographed and designed, and hauntingly scored. The writing is thought-provoking and the story is both clever and quite poignant. David Suchet I don't think has ever put a foot wrong as Poirot and he doesn't disappoint here either. Neither do Hugh Fraser, Phillip Jackson and Pauline Moran, and Kika Markham is wonderful beyond words as the Countess. All in all, fascinating even with a final 10 minutes that may frustrate some people, including me admittedly, but David's review here made me appreciate the episode even more for what it set out to do. 8/10 Bethany Cox
