The BBC has released first-look pictures of Murder Is Easy, a new adaptation of Agatha Christie’s novel.
The two-part thriller is adapted by Siân Ejiwunmi-Le Berre.
The cast features David Jonsson as Fitzwilliam, alongside Morfydd Clark as Bridget; Penelope Wilton as Miss Pinkerton, Tom Riley as Lord Whitfield, Douglas Henshall as Major Horton, Mathew Baynton as Dr Thomas and Mark Bonnar as Reverend Humbleby.
Tamzin Outhwaite, Sinead Matthews, Nimra Bucha, Kathryn Howden, Jon Pointing, Demmy Ladipo, Gloria Obianyo and Phoebe Licorish complete the cast.
England, 1954. On a train to London, Fitzwilliam (Jonsson) meets Miss Pinkerton (Wilton), who tells him that a killer is on the loose in the sleepy English village of Wychwood under Ashe.
The villagers believe the deaths are mere accidents, but Miss Pinkerton knows otherwise – and when she’s later found dead on her way to Scotland Yard, Fitzwilliam feels he must find the killer before they can strike again. Because for a certain kind of person, murder is easy…
The BBC says the two-parter is coming soon, so if we were to guess, this has Christmas written all over it.
