This documentary can be found on the "Murder on the Orient Express" DVD, part of Season 12 of the series, just released in the UK as Collection 8 (4 DVD set).
It is an amusing and very entertaining visit of, and journey with the legendary "Orient Express" seen through the eyes of David Suchet himself.
He enjoys this immensely and it shows. When invited to conduct one of the locomotives, he seems to genuinely turn into a child filled with dreams.
We are shown the train, introduced to a couple of guests and the train staff, all chaperoned by Suchet himself.
We are also reminded of the historic importance that it had throughout a Century, but most importantly, we are referred to Agatha Christie's journey to Istanbul, and how she came to be inspired to write her famous novel.
We have already had a documentary about the "Orient Express", but this one is a very special look at this train, befitting the talents of an actor such as David Suchet.
My compliments Mr. Suchet and thank you for the ride...
