Show Notes
Slather on your sunblock, mes amis! We're kicking off season eight with Evil Under the Sun and it's a scorcher of a mystery. Poirot's attempt at rest and relaxation is foiled once again when a notoriously flirtatious starlet is found strangled on the beach of the health resort. But when all of the suspects have air-tight alibis, who could possibly be the killer? Luckily Poirot has Captain Hastings, Inspector Japp and Miss Lemon on hand to help solve the case one last time... N.B. We talk about the second "A Very Hercule Hallowe’en Online Murder Mystery Night" in the episode - unfortunately, this has now sold out!

More from The Labours Of Hercule
This time we're going back to the very time in which Agatha herself was busy creating Poirot's fabulous adventures. That's right, in 1934 - just a year after its publication - Lord Edgware Dies was turned into a feature film with Austin Trevor as the little Belgian.
After the darkness of recent episodes, Adam and Frankie are making a joyful (and much needed) return to the light with Peter Ustinov's glittering comedic masterpiece, Evil Under The Sun (1982).
We hope you're in for something "ranty" because this edition of the Labours Of Hercule podcast is completely unbridled!
Brace yourself, mes amis - things are about to get a little bit groovy, baby...
Want to hear a lively discussion about Poirot, Peter Ustinov and the brilliance of Agatha Christie? For your listening pleasure, Adam and Frankie present the live podcast recording from our Picturehouse Central Double Bill screening of Death On The Nile (1978) and Evil Under The Sun (1982).
