Agatha Christie's Poirot Series 4 on Blu-ray


I have always been a fan of Agatha Christie. I have read many of her books, even though they would probably be considered "before my time". Most of the copies I have are yellowed with age, but a good story is timeless and Agatha Christie is a writer for all generations. But one thing I didn't know until recently is that Acorn has taken some of her characters and made them into their own television series.  Only the British could find a way to take a classic mystery novel and turn it into an equally entertaining series. And that is exactly what they've done with the Agatha Christie's Poirot. They have brought the Belgian Detective to life, right now to his classic mustache. And now you can get the Blu-ray of  Series 4 of Poirot thanks to Acorn Media  starting April 24th. Here is a little information about the releases.

 He`s the most-watched sleuth in the history of PBS`s Mystery! David Suchet stars as the dapper, diminutive Belgian who solves the most serpentine cases with the sharpest of minds and the driest of wits. Set in the Art Deco elegance of 1930s England, each mysterious adventure is a treat for the eyes and the intellect.


Disc 1
The ABC Murders—Poirot untangles the baffling mystery of a murderer who announces his next victims through a series of chilling letters, each addressed to the detective himself.

Disc 2
Death in the Clouds—There’s murder in the skies as a ruthless blackmailer is killed on board a plane full of likely suspects. Unfortunately for the culprit, a certain Belgian detective is a fellow passenger.

Disc 3
One, Two, Buckle My Shoe—When a popular dentist is gunned down, a murderous chain of events ensues. A broken shoe buckle becomes the key to solving a deadly web of deception that only Poirot can unravel.
