Watching the latest adaptation tonight, if Hen can stay awake through 3 1/2 hours of it.
It's been shown in the US, did anyone see it?

I suggest the murder was committed by Professor Plum, in the Dining Room, with the candlestick.

Sounds a lot like Ten Little Indians...

It is. It was renamed for U.S. editions because the original title (Ten Little Niggers) would not have been acceptable in the U.S., even in 1939. Re-releases in the U.K. were called Ten Little Indians until the 1980s when U.K. versions also began to be called And Then There Were None.

My favorite Agatha Christie story, thanks for the recommend, will eventually pay the $10 to watch it on Amazon, cheaper than a movie ticket these days!

Watched it last night, all the way through, all three episodes. Hen managed to stay awake too.
Brilliant, a great "period drama", beautifully filmed, and with nods to "Don't look now" and "The Shining".
Lovely twisty story, great use of flashbacks, but I did have a reasonable stab at who dun it.
Hatch and Hen spent the whole evening drooling over that bloke from "PoldarK' who stars in it. (No doubt Scooter did too

)
