Splendid! But I would never have guessed Agatha Christie. I must get the book.

whitewave It's good for us all to be different as we know.tchsmile but I don't understand why anyone would buy a "who done it" when the know the ending.tchconfused

Well, apparently the book doesn't end the same way so perhaps whitewave wants to read what the author actually intended it to be, rather than the BBC producers' flight of fantasy!

The ending of the play was presented differently but basically it was the same conclusion. I enjoyed this version but did know 'whoduunnit'!

Not easy to watch but ending good. Why do they makes these programmes so dark and hard to see and hear??

Gawd that was cheery Christmas viewing for all the family! Just watched the recording of both episodes back to back. Made me long for the days of a lovely Downton 2 hour special.

I thought it was fantastic and thoroughly enjoyed it!! But so was the film even though it was different.

I enjoyed watching it.

A tad contradictory but T.V has not been inspiring over the Christmas/New Year period full stop in my opinion.

I aagree POGS, it's been a real let-down on all channels. And what a cop-out for ITV to show a Harry Potter film every single evening...hmm

It's terrible. I'm glad there are a few things we can watch on Catch Up tonight. We have yet to see Maigret.

Don't get too excited about Maigret Merlotgran...
