Starring David Suchet as the Belgian Detecctive Hercule Poirot, Hugh Fraser, Philip Jackson plus a host of British acting legends

"Why not make my detective a Belgian?... I could see him as a diddy little man, always arranging things, liking things in pairs, liking things square instead of round. And he should be brainy - he should have little grey cells of the mind." Agatha Christie - An Autobiography. And so one of the greatest detectives in literature was born!

Hercule Poirot made his first appearance in The Mysterious Affair at Styles, called upon by his friend Hastings to solve a most mysterious murder. This Belgian refugee from the First World War began his career as a police officer - Christie felt it only fitting that he had a professional background as it would explain his knowledge of police proceedings when he later became a private detective. The rest is history.
