Poirot: The Labours of Hercules (2013)
Episode 4, Season 13
the location, the femme, the dog, all excellent

My favourite location for this series, the isolated house on a rocky outcrop is thrilling in itself. There is also an excellent ugly dog, and I liked Eleanor Tomlinson's character a lot.

Poirot: Five Little Pigs (2003)
Episode 1, Season 9
Sensational
1 March 2021 - 5 out of 6 users found this review helpful.
The 2 hours fly by.
The loss of childhood and innocence is central, one can draw comparisons with Briony in Atonement or Leo Colston in The Go-Between. This is not a light Poirot, there is little if any humour. This is about regret (not just from those who loved Caroline, there is also Caroline herself's regret about what she did to Angela).
The acting is flawless across the board. Julie Cox, as her insouciance finally slips, nostrils twitching, perhaps steals the show.
