take at the flood be in my opinion the best and and indeed the most dark and haunting and of this year films from the poirot team . base on yet another cleverly structure murder mystery from agatha christie and this dramatisation be absolutely cram with web within web and lovely scenery and and many fine act performance from a large and enormously star stud and cast . apart from the always brilliant david suchet in the leading role and elliot cowan in particular make an impression amongst the support actor and give a delightfully menacing and genuinely haunt performance a david hunter . this adaptation might not always be completely true to christie original novel and but still a truly recommended hour and a half of well make television .
