And Then There Were None: Trailer - BBC One

[Drikus]

Agatha Christie's "And Then There Were None" three part drama on BBC One. Out now!

Ten strangers are invited to an isolated island by a mysterious host, and start to get killed one by one. Could one of them be the killer?

Stars: Maeve Dermody, Miranda Richardson, Toby Stephens

Episode #1.1 - 26 Dec. 2015: Ten strangers are persuaded to retreat from their troubled lives and travel to Soldier Island, an isolated rock off the Devon coast, where all is not as it seems.

Episode #1.2 - 27 Dec. 2015: As the guests make plans to combat the killer, the body count rises, and dreadful secrets are brought to light.

Episode #1.3 - 28 Dec. 2015: Tempers fray as night falls and Judge Wargrave explains the reason for his being brought to the island. Next day there is another soldier missing and hysteria and suspicion take hold, relieved by drunken partying. Soon there are only two guests left, each believing the other to be the serial killer - unless, of course, the real murderer is still alive. Either way when the boatman comes to collect the guests he will find that the rhyme has come true.

Have to look it up on demand. Hopefully it is on BBC America. Last remake I remember was years and years ago.

The 1945 original is great.

Wow. Was there one that far back? I have to find it and see if I remember seeing it. Thanks Kal.

Checked and it won't be on until 2016 in US: http://www.bbc.co.uk/mediacentre/latestnews/2015/then-there-were-none

"UK transmission will be later this year to coincide with Agatha Christie's 125th anniversary. It will air in the US in 2016."

And here is the 1945 version which I read to have alternative ending than the original book: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y3EJ9f_7rHQ

Will set up some time to watch. Thanks again Kal.

Bridget and I have watched two episodes, and are onto the third tonight. It is a splendid production with an all star cast. What the Beeb does best. Highly recommended.

The other easily recommended is "We're Doomed: The Dad's Army Story" - another BBC television special which is a must for Dad's Army fans (which I am most certainly am).

 

[amirm]

Ah, that makes me want to watch it even more .

Wonder if the delayed airing is to have time to sell more ads for it and the fact that this is a very slow time for Television in US.

The movie is really great, though the actor that played the butler overdid the drunk scene.

I didn't think that Australia got Dad's Army.
