<\/p>\n

Based on Dame Agatha\u2019s most successful novel \u2013 the biggest-selling crime thriller of all time \u2013 it is set on an island where 10 people are invited by a mysterious host to assemble for a party only to find themselves knocked off one by one for unpunished crimes.<\/p>\n

The excellent set suggests the architectural elegance of the 1930s, including the black marble floor and a bearskin rug.<\/p>\n

It is a thoroughly enjoyable romp through a hand-picked selection of characters ranging from the irritable to the despicable, including a pair of female domestics who appear to have a lesbian relationship (Nicola May-Taylor and Lucy Tregear), a Bible-bashing old biddy (Emily Brent), a former policeman-turned-private eye (Andrew Lancel) and a hanging judge (David Yelland).<\/p>\n

Christie\u2019s disdain for the police comes across loud and clear, and the shocking finale makes no concession to cosy resolutions.<\/p>\n

Miss Marple, it ain\u2019t.<\/p>\n
