But no sooner has filming begun than things start to go wrong. First a charmless PA dies in a freak accident, then the young, cocksure director bites the dust. Once again, Charles finds himself on the case, hunting for clues from a host of showbiz suspects including an insecure, ego-ridden TV detective, a director suffering a midlife crisis, an ex-Bond girl and National Treasure, and her cognitively confused rock star husband.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs the pound shop Poirot investigates, Frances (his semi-detached wife), and Maurice (his worse-than-useless agent), are furious. Following a skiing accident, Maurice has moved in with them, and is proving to be the house guest from hell. As tensions rise at home and on set, can Charles work out who is killing off the cast and crew – and more importantly, stop Frances from murdering Maurice?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eJeremy Front’s witty drama stars \u003cb\u003eBill Nighy\u003c\/b\u003e as Charles Paris, with \u003cb\u003eSuzanne Burden\u003c\/b\u003e as Frances and \u003cb\u003eJon Glover\u003c\/b\u003e as Maurice.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eCredits\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWritten by Jeremy Front, based on the novel by Simon Brett\u003cbr\u003eDirected by Sally Avens\u003cbr\u003eTechnical producers: Peter Ringrose \u0026amp; Alison Craig\u003cbr\u003eProduction Coordinator: Luke MacGregor\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eCast\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCharles – \u003cb\u003eBill Nighy\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFrances – \u003cb\u003eSuzanne Burden\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMaurice – \u003cb\u003eJon Glover\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAsh Amos – \u003cb\u003ePhaldut Sharma\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eJudy Gilmore – \u003cb\u003eChristine Kavanagh\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eStevie Dean \/ Howard Langridge – \u003cb\u003eTony Turner\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eScott \/ Argyll \/ Art Tutor - \u003cb\u003eJoseph Ayre\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSadie – \u003cb\u003eMaggie Service\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCheryl – \u003cb\u003eAnna Spearpoint\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBarmaid – \u003cb\u003eAbbie Andrews\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFirst broadcast on BBC Radio 4, 27 January – 17 February 2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e© 2025 BBC Studios Distribution Ltd (p) 2025 BBC Studios Distribution Ltd\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Penguin UK","offers":[{"title":"Audiobook","offer_id":49793712947504,"sku":"BDk0pw","price":14.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0879\/2784\/9264\/files\/664999-k0pw-Square.jpg?v=1746853312","url":"https:\/\/downpour.com\/products\/book-k0pw","provider":"Downpour","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
