The Suchet “Murder of Roger Ackroyd” Is Not What We Expected (2000) (Ep. 14)

After a five-year hiatus, “Agatha Christie’s Poirot” returned in 2000 with a different format (90-minute movies), a more serious tone, and less emphasis on Miss Lemon, Hastings, and Inspector Japp. The series was launched with one of Christie’s greatest novels, “The Murder of Roger Ackroyd,” and what they did to the book, well, you’ll have to watch us and find out.

Teresa Peschel, author of "Agatha Christie, She Watched" and the "International Agatha Christie, She Watched," hosts our livestream. Joining Teresa is her husband, technical adviser, and straight man, Bill Peschel. Together, they are Peschel Press, publisher of intriguing, intelligent, and idiosyncratic books (www.peschelpress.com).
