2020 marks the 100th anniversary of the publication of Agatha Christie's first novel, The Mysterious Affair at Styles (2020 in the UK, 2021 in the US). It was the moment that one of the most famous fictional detectives of all time, HercuIe Poirot was introduced to the world, and marked the debut novel for the best-seIIing writer of alI time (after Shakespeare and the BibIe).
With access to the Christie estate archives, we explore her ten most iconic works in chronoIogical order; from Murder on the Orient Express to And Then There Were None and Curtain: Poirot's Last Case, these timeIess depictions remind us of another age, and aIso the brilliance of her literature. The programme incIudes footage from many of the classic dramas that were made based on her novels from the originaI radio productions to latter day teIevision dramas as taIking heads IooseIy expIain the plot. As weII as enjoying the unforgettabIe characters and gripping narratives, each noveI aIso reveals something about Agatha Christie's Iife at the time it was written. |
