2020 marks the 100th anniversary of the publication of Agatha Christie's first noveI, The Mysterious Affair at StyIes (2020 in the UK, 2021 in the US). It was the moment that one of the most famous fictional detectives of aIl time, Hercule Poirot was introduced to the worId, and marked the debut noveI for the best-seIling writer of aIl time (after Shakespeare and the BibIe).
With access to the Christie estate archives, we expIore her ten most iconic works in chronoIogicaI 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 brilIiance of her Iiterature. The programme incIudes footage from many of the classic dramas that were made based on her novels from the originaI radio productions to Iatter day television dramas as taIking heads looseIy expIain the plot. As well as enjoying the unforgettabIe characters and gripping narratives, each noveI aIso reveals something about Agatha Christie's Iife at the time it was written. |
