SEE OLIVER JACKSON COHEN, ANJELICA HUSTON, MATTHEW RHYS IN FIRST TOWARDS ZERO NEW BBC AGATHA CHRISTIE TV SERIES TRAILER! PLUS THE AIR DATE

   FIRST TOWARDS ZERO  
NEW BBC AGATHA CHRISTIE SERIES TRAILER
Although I thought they might air it at Christmas,  BBC has kept their latest TV series adaptation of an Agatha Christie work TOWARDS ZERO for this year and it will start airing March 2nd on BBC One, and to mark the announcement they released first trailer for the new series to entice you with our dearest Oliver Jackson Cohen in the lead role with Anjelica Huston and Matthew Rhys also in the cast. I think that Britbox will stream it for the viewers in Canada and United States sometime this year as well. 
 
 WHAT IS THE STORY ABOUT?
Featuring coastal views, heated summer soirees, and a trip to Wimbledon Centre Court, the series is set in England, 1936. After a scandalous celebrity divorce, Nevile Strange (Oliver Jackson Cohen) and his ex-wife Audrey (Ella Lilly Hyland) make the unthinkable decision to spend a summer together at Gull’s Point, their childhood home and the coastal estate of Nevile's aunt, Lady Tressilian (Anjelica Huston). With unfinished business between the former childhood sweethearts, plus the presence of Nevile’s new wife Kay (Mimi Keene), tensions are running high. Add to this a long-suffering lady’s companion, a mysterious gentleman’s valet, an exiled cousin with a grudge, a venerable family lawyer, an inquisitive orphan and a French con man, and soon there will be murder. A troubled detective must rediscover his purpose to untangle a toxic web of jealousy, deceit and dysfunction. Can he solve the crime before another victim meets their death? An explosive love triangle, a formidable matriarch and a house party of enemies. All compelled… Towards Zero. Clarke Peters, Anjana Vasan, and Jack Farthing are also seen in the new pictures from the series, which co-stars Jackie Clune, Grace Doherty, Khalil Gharbia and Adam Hugill.

  1. Parece ser uma série bastante interessante, uma série com muitos mistérios, Dezmond abraços.

  2. I've read the book (a long time ago) and seen at least one previous adaptation. I like Agatha Christie stories but I sometimes wish they'd adapt work of other crime writers of the time. It may be interesting for young people who aren't familiar with AC'S work. I hope they don't change the story.

    1. BBC only had one good Christie Adaptation out of these new ones AND THEN THERE WERE NONE so I am not optimistic.

  3. While I really like Anjelica Huston, I don't think this series is going to be for me.

  4. I'll be skipping this one too, but I do love that black striped dress she has on up there. I wish we'd go back to those retro swimsuits too. I like a full covered bottom.
