An okay listen. Stories have been updated and I think they got lost in translation! Listened while dog walking and I zoned in and out.

Okay

I don't often like updates of Agatha Christie's work, I prefer them set in their original decades. However this volume has been updated with care and is still a joy to listen to

A possibility of these plays being over-dramatized has left them difficult to follow at times.

Good, but incomprehensible in places.

If you like Agatha Christie then you will like these short plays, performed by some top names with BBC quality. Good way to relax for 30 minutes. Highly recommended.

Enjoyed every bit of it, typically Agatha Christie leaves you wanting more, which is why I am looking for another one.

Brilliant

I was initially regretting buying this as I realised I had already heard the first story, and found it slightly banal. However, as the plays and stories went on, I found myself quite engrossed. All were well performed and most of the stories good and I found myself thoroughly immersed in Agatha Christie's world. A very enjoyable collection of classic sleuthing tales.

Classic Christie
