Sat through all 2 hours of this despite serious misgivings early on, (a racing post available 3 decades before they were printed) the cast appear to be trying their hardest to work with the terrible script and direction so it can't really be blamed on them.
The show lacked violence or even a sense of darkness or foreboding that has already been achieved before in better Agatha Christie adaptions, the colours appeared overly heightened with the contrast turned up 100% which often became distracting.
The point of a good murder mystery is trying to figure it out with the characters as you watch, this was impossible in this show due to none of the clues being revealed until the end, even the lead character stated at the end they hadn't figured it out.
Very disappointing, hopefully this writer isn't allowed "adapt" anymore of Agatha Christies fantastic mystery books.
