‘Poirot’ Actor David Suchet To Retrace Agatha Christie’s Steps In Doc Series From Soho Studios, Two Rivers Media & Abacus Media Rights; Channel 4 & BritBox On Board
'Poirot' actor David Suchet will replicate a global expedition Agatha Christie took in the 1920s in a doc series, with Channel 4 and BritBox attached.
In Travels with Agatha with Sir David Suchet, the actor will replicate Poirot author Christie’s journey, which spanned former British Empire territories Canada, Hawaii, South Africa, New Zealand and Australia as part of a trade mission. “Having spent a quarter of a century personifying Agatha Christie’s iconic character of Hercule Poirot, I now feel so honoured to embark upon a journey around the world, as myself — in the footsteps of possibly the greatest crime writer of all times,” said Suchet. “David Suchet’s knowledge of, and passion for, Agatha Christie, both as an author and as a person, is unrivalled,” added Lamarra, the former Alaska TV and Zodiak exec whose Soho Studios landed investment from WME in February.
