The Labours Of Hercule

Brace yourself, mes amis - things are about to get a little bit groovy, baby...

Join Adam and Frankie as they attempt to tackle and decode one of the most unsual Christie adaptations ever made, The Alphabet Murders (1965), starring Tony Randall as Hercule Poirot.

Can Poirot stop ABC before they strike again? Can his accent hold up for more than five seconds at a time? Did the script writers actually read the original book? What the heck is going on?!

The answer, mes amis, is far from as easy as ABC...

It's time to go all aboard on the Orient Express (again), but this time in the company of a gallery of Old Hollywood's finest, and a Poirot who has proved... somewhat... divisive..?

Join Adam and Frankie as they travel on the most famous railway line in the world, one where shadowy secrets are revealed one by one, where murder is the only solution to a grisly legacy, and where everyone's eardrums are at peril due to a most cartoonish detective...

We're back, mes amis! How we've missed you and oh boy, do we have some updates for you...

Join Adam and Frankie as they kick off the new movie era of the podcast with Peter Ustinov as Poirot in Appointment with Death (1988). 

Does this more faithful version of Christie's story make for a better adaptation? And how does it compare to the controversial Suchet episode? Comment below or email us at bonjour@thelaboursofhercule.com to share your thoughts!
