And Then there Were None

Well, a tense and satisfying (?) finale to the series, I thought. I've read most of Agatha Christie's books, but it was a long time ago, and although I had an inkling I deliberately didn't try to remember the ending.

(I do wish the BBC would stop warning us that we might find some scenes 'upsetting' prior to all their dramas though.)

Anya did you have to say that!?

I think I read the book when I was about 15 so, er, over 30 years ago and I can't remember the ending.
I'm a bit disappointed that it wasn't filmed on Burgh Island and the art deco hotel there, where I believe Agatha Christie wrote it. But of course, the mainland is accessible by foot from Burgh Island at low tide which would ruin the plot!

Stansgran - are you visualising David Suchet just about wearing a towel and propping himself suggestively against a door post

I am seriously in lust with Aiden Turner.... Poldark and now Mr.Lombard...
it's more than flesh and blood can stand!

I also saw it in the summer in the theatre. Dialogue is different as well. I haven't read the book so would be interesting to see the original.

I've read the book and can't remember a thing. Always thought Agatha Christie hadn't even a hint of sex in any book. Perhaps they should redo some of the others.

I saw this some years ago and have a faint recollection of the plot. I know that there is a real shock near the end but - nuff said!!

Oops sorry roses just ignore my ramblings. I'm almost always wrong anyway.

Sssh, gillybob no guessing allowed!?

Parts of it were certainly very enjoyable. It reminds me of watching George Clooney in ER many years ago and commenting that if I were ill I wouldn't object to having him as my doctor, only to be told by my 14-year-old son that I was very shallow ?

Hadn't realised it was Poldark!!!?? You haven't been giving these programmes the careful attention they deserve Anya. I recognised him straight away-despite the hairstyle change! So pleased Mr Lombard didn't pack a dressing gown!

I hadn't realised it was Poldark! Nice bod and smouldering eyes. What's not to like?

I reckon I've figured it out - who's doing it I mean. There's only one possibility.

Gripping and Mr Lombard in a towel just standing there looking at her - wow what a body and its great to see a man on TV with chest hair - nice!!!!

Yes I like it.Like Dickensian too,very good.

Oh yes it does Iam64.

It's a good cast isn't it. Charles Dance is always excellent, I confess to replaying (in my mind) the scene on the station in The Jewel in the Crown, where we first see him, broad shoulders, striding down the busy railway station platform.
What is it about this thread and attractive men?! This kind of preoccupation doesn't usually appear on gransnet

I am guessing it's her. The secretary woman. Dunno really but she's ever so shifty. Or else it's the judge..... He's getting back at the people he feels should have been hung for murder but got off ???? Yes that's it. It's def the judge.

Am I right? I am aren't I ?

Agreed Nina. That was an unexpected and special treat.

Saw this at a theatre in Summer, but this tv production is much better ( even without Poldark in a towel.)So, I know whodunnit but promise not to tell.

Oh but slow isn't it? How have they managed to spread it out over three hours?

Well acted though. Burn Gorman should be in more dramas.

Much more yes, well, in this than in Poldark, I don't know why!

However, I have always loved Sam Neill and then he was gone .....

I didn't watch plod ark but having seen Mr Lombard in a towel, I begin to see the appeal

Who cares what's going on as long as he's still in it?

Can anyone tell me what's going on because I can't take my eyes off Poldark.
