This series from Thames did not feature the mighty Hercule Poirot, nor did Miss Marple steal the limelight.
For once, Agatha Christie’s lesser-known earlier characters were introduced to television in these ten 1920s dramas, which were generally lighthearted, unassuming period adventures, with the cast changing every week.
John Frankau was the Executive Producer, with Pat Sandys producing.
