I have always thought that the original story was one of the most aggravating and unfair mysteries that Christie ever wrote. I'm glad to see that this has not changed in this dramatization.
Peter Sallis is terrible as Poirot! He does not even come close to a voice personification as Poirot, as played by David Suchet, or even John Moffat; Peter Sallis was awesome in Last of the summer wine, but listening to him here as Poirot was excruciatingly stressful. No! NO! NO!
I love Peter Sallis, but not sure he’s in his element as Poirot. I guess we’ve all been spoilt by David Suchet.
I agree that he's not exactly Poirot. The real problem, though, is that he doesn't sound French (Belgian).
Peter ustinov was a more convincing poirot.
My same thought, is he Poirot, if so, he forgot his Belgian accent. 😮
I also listen while I'm cooking, with a glass of red wine. Great way 2 unwind. Thank u so much. 😊
Oh that sounds fantastic!
I'm listening to this story again, on Christmas Eve ❤ thanks for posting!
I listen while I cook….thank you so much for posting…..😊
Same here, theyre always just the right length for the recipe i find
I always ♥️ Hercule Peirot, one of Agatha Christy's finest creations.
I really enjoyed this. Well worth listening to imo.
Thank you.
I listen while I walk! Wonderful!?
Thank you for sharing this with us. It was quite entertaining. 😊
Nice twist.
Miss the old Poirot.
It's a bad joke, unless it's Dave Suchet.
We have been Spoilt, with John Moffat, playing the radio Poirot.
😢
This ain't he!
Good enough, I am sure!

Peter Sallis ?!? Why..??!?! The least convincing Belgian I've ever heard. Yes, I'm sure he was a lovely bloke but Poirot....!!?
I agree. It's like using a Golden Retriever for The Hound of The Baskerville's.
He played Cleggy in Last of the Summer Wine 😊

What do you mean exactly Roderick?
@@etiennepilorget8777 I can't really explain without extensive spoilers, except to say that I don't think Christie really plays fair with the clues.
@@roderickfemm8799 You can go on, don't worry. I have already listened to the play. I am interested in your point of view.
Too many questions for the female passenger. Leave her alone..
I wouldn’t really call this a Christmas special, the plot could’ve been set anytime.
I think you’ve missed the point of the plot
Sellers is possibly the worst Poirot I've ever heard.
Peter Sallis, not Peter Sellars 😊

Who was the woman playing the granddaughter? She was awful…
