A BBC Radio 4 full-cast dramatisation starring Peter Sallis as the great Belgian detective. Tyrannical millionaire Simeon Lee has been estranged from most of his family for years. But now, on Christmas Eve, the old man calls them all together once more. Unable to disobey, the children gather uneasily and wonder what their father's intentions are. Does he want to clear up past misunderstandings or cause fresh mischief? Before they can find out, a deafening crash is heard overhead. Rushing upstairs, they discover a shocking sight: Simeon Lee is lying in a pool of blood, his throat cut. But it is the strangest thing - the door has been locked from the inside and there is no trace of the murderer. With so many possible suspects, it is lucky for Superintendent Sugden that the Chief Constable has his old friend Hercule Poirot staying with him. It seems to be an impossible case. But, as Poirot knows only too well, things aren't always as they seem.

Christmas Eve is a time of excitement and anticipation, preparing for a day of warmth and bonding with family and friends. It is not a time of year that is normally favoured by tyrannical millionaire, Simeon Lee, who shocks his previously estranged family when he invites them over to share the festive season at his home. An already awkward reunion of the family, few of whom are on good terms with one another, soon plunges into disaster when a blood curdling scream is heard from upstairs. As the family members rush to the scene, it becomes abundantly clear that Christmas just took a deadly turn for the worst…

In this BBC Drama adaptation of Agatha Christie’s festive murder mystery, it once again falls upon the revered Belgian sleuth, Hercule Poirot, to help solve a perplexing crime that incriminates several potential suspects, including immediate family members.

Starring Peter Sallis as Poirot, accompanied by an exemplary full cast of actors and actresses, ‘Hercule Poirot’s Christmas’ on CD and MP3 audiobook brings that extra chill to the festive season. Now you can bring your own family together to collectively consider the conflicting witness accounts and try to decipher the motive behind a shocking Christmas murder.
