ENDLESS NIGHT
NEW AGATHA CHRISTIE SERIES AT BBC
The latest Agatha Christie work to be adapted into a three part series at BBC is ENDLESS NIGHT to be penned by Sarah Phelps. It’s 1967 and man-of-many-trades Michael Rogers finds himself working as chauffeur for the enigmatic
designer du jour Rudolf Santonix, snatching a glimpse into a glamorous world of outrageous wealth that's far from his own upbringing.
Transfixed by Santonix’s latest project, a beautiful house in the English countryside, Mike dreams of meeting the love of his life and taking up residence.
But unbeknownst to Mike, the house that he has set his heart on has a dark past that goes back for centuries. Local legend says that it is haunted by a curse that no one escapes.
When Mike meets the sweet natured Ellie and, by a curious set of circumstances, finds himself moving into the house, the young couple start to realise they should have listened to the warnings. As increasingly strange and chilling events occur, they start to wonder if the curse is real and means to destroy them. Or, that someone is intent on terrifying them to death.
A ghost story and a love story, Endless Night is about obsession and the darkness that lurks in us all when we want too much.

I've never read an Agatha Christie novel. But I used to watch a show called, Murder, She Wrote starring Angela Lansbury as author/amateur sleuth Jessica Fletcher. The show was inspired by Agatha Christie novels.
ReplyDeleteWell, you probably should,but I do think they have lost their mojo over the time.
DeleteNot a fan Agatha Christie...
ReplyDeleteI am yet to watch the latest one with Anjelica Huston and Olly Jackson Cohen Towards Zero.
DeleteI thought I'd read all Agatha Christie's stories in my younger days though I don't remember this one. I actually like Agatha Christie's work but there are lots of other good stories both from her time and more recently so I wish people would give works by other writes a chance.
ReplyDeleteAgreed
DeleteProbably going to pass on this one. Like Perplexed up there, I think there are more interesting authors who deserve screen time over Agatha.
ReplyDeleteIt will all depend on the casting.
